Outside
Now that Leo can sit up we are trying to spend as much time outdoors while the weather is great. Before the sitting up he was wanting to be held nearly all the time, he definitely hated to recline, he wanted to be a part of the action and conversation. He contorts to reach toys near his toes too, but he prefers newspapers and computers within reach.
Lulu Painting
I found some of Ally's old finger paints that were probably from when Z was a baby. Put them into yogurt cups and away she was painting one sheet of paper after the next. She's prefers paining with brushes... but not opposed to painting on or with body parts! Fortunately I picked up a $5 inflatable pool in town so she would paint her leg and then go wash up in the pool. Unfortunately, she's been coloring a lot of things as of late. First it was chalk on the screen porch floor, then chalk on my treadmill. Then it was crayon on our front screen door, on my bamboo rug (not a biggie), and on my curtain! Eek. I took her crayons away. Walked her around to the colorings she's done and told her they were naughty and if she wanted to color she had to ask so I can watch her or color with her. She likes when I color with her so it's a win-win for both of us. I didn't tell Strict Daddy* of all her naughtiness. She just doesn't respond to confrontation the way he presents it.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!
