A $200 blessing!

Darren and I have talked about getting a Learning Tower kitchen platform so Noah can "help" us cook and can "help" Jenny bake COOKIES (anyone see an ulterior motive on my end to get one?). They cost about $200 with shipping and we've put it off since we didn't really know if Noah would even use it.

Well, the other day I saw one sitting outside of a neighbor's house. I had never met the family, but my friend Danaly and I called the mom the "cute, hip mom" because she's trendy and cute :) As I walked by the house with Noah, hip mom pulled into her driveway and her son came up and introduced himself (he's 4 with a 2.5 year old sister). Well, it just so happens that Nicole (hip mom) has the tower outside her front door because they aren't using it anymore and she hasn't decided where to put it.

"If you want it you can have it" she says.

And we did - so here's Noah making cookies in it for the first time - it worked perfect.

"Mom, just bring me some more dough and nobody will get hurt"
