A little boy's work is never done...

For a while now, Dominic has had a bit of a fascination with the vacuum cleaner. First, he just started following us around whenever we would take it out. Then, he graduated to taking one of his push toys and wheeling that around and making the back and forth motion that you would with a vacuum, doing his fair share while we took care of the real thing. Finally, I decided to buy a toy one for him. I found this Dirt Devil one that actually turns on and make a vacuum noise and apparently also does actually do some sucking. There's even a dust buster that pops in and out. Dominic now happily cleans the house every day. You'll see by the pictures that even gets the tough spots like under the couch. He also moves the kitchen chairs at both the table and the island to make sure he can get everything all clean. Of course, when Vinny took the real one out yesterday morning, Dominic went running for his yelling, "Dominic too, Dominic too" and got right to work! Now, if only he was big enough to maneuver the real one for us! I guess we'll see how long before he realizes that it's more work than it is fun...
