dyk the smell of my chicken ranchero tostada pulled her from her room haha
dyk she then ate half of it
dyk it is their lunch time actually -- Dek eats at 11:05 and Abi at 11:40
dyk Abi is now chilling with me drawing
dyk I am trying to convince her she wants to paint so that I can show her the saran wrap technique to make the scalesof a snake
dyk and then we could paint flowers and grass behind the snake
dyk Dek wants to do a dragon fly
dyk Ellie wants to jump but it's raining so we pulled her crib matress out to the living room and hse's VERY happy
dyk I'm going to try that tomorrow!!!
dyk she only drinks her babas at bedtimes and if she's not going to SLEEP, there's no reason she can't chill back on the couch and drink her morning milk from her sippy cup
dyk it's going to be controlled and productive --- in terms of mess and paint use --
dyk they are free to paint whatever they'd like
dyk but we're not mixing all the colors together to make brown, spilling water, fighting over paper and/or being loud and obnoxious
dyk and she's quiet though since I snapped at her, wait,no she's wailing now
dyk too bad it's naptime and I've got Abi and Dek painting -- so, she's down for the count now whether she wants to be or not.
dyk honestly, after just the first wash, b/c Dek is able to paint with a lighter touch understanding we're going to do layers... his first wash on his butterfly is much better than mine! lol
dyk and we put saran wrap on it to make the design
dyk now he's moved on while that dries and he's painting cheetahs
dyk he's very detailed and meticulous and steady handed
dyk here is Dek gettin' his paint on
dyk he's done 3 paintings --- he really wants his butterfly to be dry to do another wash on it but it has to dry "on its own" (as opposed to using a blow dryer which we can do some other times) with the saran wrap technique
dyk and Dek has moved back to legos and Abi is getting started in her "Wreck this Journal" book with the title page where there are instructions on writing your name about 10 different ways (legibly, illegibly, in tiny letters, backwards, etc)
dyk Abi hasn't painted yet
dyk and she has yellow watercolor paint on her face haha
dyk, good news is that I've not gagged a single time today, not even after eating (an orange, a mini Luna bar, and another mini Pinkberry!)...progress!
-Boston Run to Remember Half Marathon, 5/29/11 (2:35:11, no training!)
-Corporate Run, 3.5 miles 6/2/11 (36:38, 4 days after running the half!)
-BAA 10k, 6/26/11 (1:04:52, wanted to be under an hour...)
-Tavern to Tavern
dyk I asked Abi what wreck meant
dyk she goes, you know... like this...
