painting

i've been meaning to let sierra try paints for a while now, but just hadn't gotten around to it. i think the pictures speak for themselves. let me just say that i wasn't able to supervise as much as i would have preferred because reid was having trouble napping and i was in and out of the room a lot...but boy did she have a blast! you'll see...

 she started out so well...this was all while i was still sitting next to her...

 ...dipping one color at a time, rinsing the brush in between...

 ...then she discovered a much faster way - skip the rinsing, use both brushes at the same time and mix colors!

 what a beautiful brown! i ended up just throwing the paint away...what little was left of it! i just laughed and thought 'not how i would have done it, but oh well, she had fun'

 "uh oh, uh oh"

"dirty hands, clean it, clean it"
