Single Handed

Since Harrison has arrived, there are many things that I have learned to do with only one hand :) Some are simple, but others (I think) are pretty impressive! I thought I'd make a top 10 list for my own entertainment. Feel free to add you own "single handed" skills :)

1. Type- as I am doing now :)

2. Cook/bake. Nothing too fancy, but I have mastered the art of single handed chocolate chip cookies. '

3. This is my favorite- Washing my hands. Yes, it goes a little like this: Turn on water, pump soap into one hand, rub fingers against hand, rinse, swap baby to other arm and repeat!

4. Laundry. This isn't that impressive, no one really needs 2 hands for this :)

5. Feed the dog. Open the door- pick up the scoop- scoop the food and pour. Not to hard.

6. Decorate the Christmas Tree! More of a challenge due to the ribbon that hangs the ornaments from the limbs :)

7. Apply make up. I'd give this a score of a 3 on a scale of 1 to 10 :)

8. Load the dish washer. Only pots and pans become a challenge :) Plates, bowls, silverware, and cups are a breeze.

9. Address Christmas cards. Difficult because Harrison likes to squirm which makes my handwriting a little hard to read.

10. Make sweet tea ;) If you have spent much time around our house, you know this is a must have!

I guess that's it for now.

I'm sure there are more single handed skills to be discovered :)
