With Mike having most of the Mondays off this month and Lily going to school Tues/Thurs and Fri, Wed is turning out to be our girl day. And, we've been enjoying staying at home and enjoying each other and doing things that require a bit more concentration and cleaning up.
Today, we painted.
And, I've finally, finally found a way to use the applesauce containers :)
Paint.
I've also collected medicine cups too!
They both work great since I fill up these cups and the girls believe that there's tons of paint in them. And, there's really not it's just that the cup is so small it seems as though there's a lot. Finally, I've outsmarted them...aaahahaha...yes, it's the small things.
But, the girls painted for at least 45 minutes and were really into it. Emma only ate paint twice to make her tongue blue twice when I finally popped in that binky to stop it from happening again.
Then, since Emma was quite covered in paint not just in her mouth but her hair too they were put at the sink and played there for an hour. A very long hour of me taking them off the chairs, drying the chairs and the floor only to put them back for them to dump water all over again. I didn't mind but was very glad when we were all done. The requests to play at the sink have been denied since then but I tell them, "One Day Maybe"....
Oh, and had to capture the look on Maci's face. Kinda says it all doesn't it.
