Railey and Kenna love helping me in the kitchen! Any time I am going to be mixing, stirring, cooking or baking they have to be right by me. They especially love the mixer. Whenever I am making cookies or bread I make a decent size batch which can cause my mixer to want to move all over the counter so I have grown accustomed to just placing my hand on the top to hold it in place. Well anytime the girls are in helping me they have to sit on either side of the mixer and they automatically put their hand up on top. I asked why they did this and they told me it was because I did it. I really don't mind but sometimes they scare me when they aren't paying attention and let their hand go down a bit. We haven't had any issues yet but it really makes me wonder what other bad habits are they getting from me. I know I've picked things up from my parents and do them just because that's how they did them even if there is no rhyme or reason to it but that's just the way we do it. I'm sure placing their hands on the mixer will only be one of MANY things they will pick up bad or good. But I wouldn't trade it for anything. I love being in the kitchen with them (most of the time).
