painting & colouring


diedre asked if they could do some painting. i also had some cheap stamps that they used. the stamps didnt work well for stamping a picture, but better when used upside-down to make squares.

diedre finishing up the piece.

i'm pretty proud of myself for letting ezekiel paint too. i just kept telling myself "its washable" and tried to keep him from touching me and the couch (also a strange place to do art...but the paper fits perfectly on that table). i find with my ezekiel, that he gets so adamant about doing the same things as diedre that unless there's a really good reason (ie. safety) that he cannot do the thing, i just let him. thats why he started colouring so young, or getting himself dressed (ha ha).

on another note, diedre coloured the following picture at playgroup on Wednesday. This is the first time she has really stayed mostly in the lines. she has been really into using many colours when colouring. Great job honey!
