At the Car Wash

It has been a long, long time since I last washed my car. I'm sure Noah has washed it for me at some point in the last couple years (!), but I'm pretty sure I haven't washed it myself since before Keira was born (gasp!). (We don't ever go get it washed because we're too cheap, or maybe I should say "frugal"). :)

Well, I was recently inspired to wash my car and have Keira help after reading a friend's blog and seeing how much fun her two-year-old son had helping her. I've been a little concerned about the position of my car while washing it (out in the common driveway where our neighbors come and go) and didn't want to risk Keira being out in the driveway.

Nevertheless, we took the plunge this afternoon and had so much fun washing the car!!!!

This first picture is absolutely hilarious. I started the car-washing process by vacuuming the inside of the car with Noah's huge shop-vac. It's pretty loud and Keira stayed away and covered her ears the whole time while I finished vacuuming. Then, when I was done, she said "other vacuum" & "blue vacuum" (she meant the one we use to vacuum inside the house). I pulled out the other vacuum and she wanted to take a picture by it! After I took the picture, she wanted to see it and then just giggled. What a funny girl!!

She helped wipe down the inside!

Hard at work!

She stayed in this spot the whole time and washed it over and over! When I asked if she wanted to wash Daddy's car next, she said "Yes!!" Next, we'll be opening our own car wash business!

Here's a short clip of the car wash fun!
