Art for the playroom




Rowan and I painted today and had a great time! We made two pieces for the playroom. Using contact paper I blocked out the letters and numbers and then let him go to town with the paint. Using brushes, his fingers, a plastic bottle and a sponge roller he squished the paint all over the place. I wish I would have gotten a picture of him in action because it was hilarious, we were both covered in paint when we were done. He also thought he was really big stuff getting to paint on canvases and was very proud to show off his work to everyone in the house. I think they are going to look great in our playroom!

Riding a bike

Rowan got this great bike for Christmas and is just starting to be ready for it. He can just barely reach the peddles but is getting the hang of sitting on it and pushing it with his feet. He is also getting really good at steering it to get to where he wants to go. My favorite part is when he backs up, he beeps like a large truck would. Makes me laugh every time.

Pickles for breakfast, this kid gladly accepts. A freeze pop on a hot day...one bite and he handed it back.
One of Rowan's goals in life: find a big stick, hit trees with it, then throw it in the woods. This is repeated several times a day.
