PAINTING

OCTOBER UPDATE #1: While I've been a little better about blogging lately, I've still got just a couple of things to catch up on. Oct. 30, 2008

My brother and his wife recently moved to a new house on their same street. During the transition, I watched my niece, Kate. We decided to do some painting.

I'm trying to make more of an effort to do a craft time or mommy play time on most days. I love the smocks I picked up at IKEA. I have a set of 3, which comes in really handy when I teach our mommy's preschool.

We're still working with Elise on what's edible and what's not. Here she is licking her fingers as if she's eating pudding or something.

And here's her reaction to the taste of the paint after about the 5th time she did it. You'd think they'd get it after the first time. ;) Thankfully the paint is non-toxic.
