So, in honor of thanksgiving, we (I) decided to introduce Micah to some craft projects beyond coloring with his four fat crayons. First attempt? Finger painting. Failed. Micah was quite distraught at the sensation of gooey paint on his fingers. Second attempt? Stamping. Loved! Why is it that he is willing to rub his finger in an ink pad (that is not washable) and not in finger paint (that is washable)??
As I grabbed my scarf the other day, I threw it over my head to be goofy. Micah proceeded to run around the house for 20 minutes with a scarf over his head saying "ooooo!" I asked Rick, "when did our child learn how to become a ghost?" Rick's response, "20 minutes ago, when you said "ooo" under the scarf". Ah ha. I guess we need to pay even closer attention to what we're teaching this little sponge!
As Rick started getting Thanksgiving jello ready, Micah decided he needed an apron just like dad. This was fun for four minutes until mom got the camera out. Then he was ready to be "all done!"

Ah, toddlers! I have decided they are very much like teenagers! :) But, who can't help but love their toddler? :)
yeah for craft projects! Ironically, Alex prefers painting with a brush to fingers... unless as stated involves something that is non washable :) Although he does Okay with yogurt paint....
