Tools of the Trade

Lucas stripped the carpet and pried the staples off of our main staircase. Last night the boys were helping him take care of a few areas that needed some repairing. Milo decided to concentrate his efforts on the bottom stair.

First he grabbed the tape measure and checked the dimensions.

Next he took the tape measure back to the tool area and grabbed this drywall knife (it's not really a knife knife, don't worry)

Levi was pulling out staples.  Milo was scraping to and fro.  Scraping what exactly, I do not know, but scrape he did, indeed.

Then it was back to the tools again, this time to return with a paint brush.  He brushed here and there and everywhere.

To finish his task he returned with a different scraper.  You really cannot scrapes stairs too thoroughly.  Just look at his face.  He was so intent on his project.
