I found some little pumpkins and leaves at AC Moore and thought it'd be fun for the kids to paint them. I tried to stick with just orange for the pumpkins... Malia played along but Liam really wanted some yellow so I obliged.
Then we did the leaves and that was an invitation to use lots of colors. I squirted red, yellow, orange and green and let the kids mix them all up.
Later, I thought it might be a good idea to have the kids try on their costumes just in case they didn't fit and snapped a quick picture of our little Snoopy!
Warning: This is a picture heavy post.
Here's Malia being cute at Liam's therapy appointments. She was making these cute sounds that were making all the little old ladies come over and look at her and talk to her and ask all sorts of questions and tell me how precious she is which is always fun.
Then we did an art project at home! Liam is wearing one of the robes Malia wore in the hospital- either when she had the seizures or when she went back later for an MRI. We used red paint and a heart shaped cookie cutter- it didn't go quite as planned.
When I accepted this was not going to be a sheet with lots of pretty, perfect red hearts, I gave him a brush and he had fun with that.
Then we added more colors!
And then we rested. Art is hard work!
