ART 101

Charlie likes to play with her food and smear it around her highchair table, so I thought....why not??? I mixed flour with water and added a drop of food coloring. She didn't get as excited about it as I thought she might. She just wanted to eat it more than anything. It made for some cute artwork though ;)

Saturday Family Outing

We attempted to take Charlie to a pumpkin patch for something fun to do (During the summer she LOVED watermelon...both to eat and to "pat". When we would go to the store I would pick out a watermelon and put it in the cart next to her. She would touch and pat the melon all throughout the store. Well, now that it is fall, she enjoys doing this with pumpkins. She gets VERY excited when we walk into a store that has a display of pumpkins out front. I love her!). We were not impressed with the farm because it was dusty and full of weeds (yes, I realize this is the definition of a farm, but when you advertize a pumpkin patch and expect people to pay $9 for one, you could at least try to control the dust and make the pumpkin patch look at least a little more appealing). We took advantage of the free tractor/hay ride and toured the farm anyway. We didn't bother buying a pumpkin, but Charlie sure liked looking at all of them as we drove by.

Trick of the Week

Charlie has decided that she would like to crawl in and out of baskets this week. She then play with each of the toys in the basket. When she is done with one toy she throw it out and grabs another until the basket is empty. Then we start over!

Dress Up or Trucks?!?!

We got these cute dress up clothes as "party favors" for Piper's second Birthday! I put them on Charlie at home and she proceeded to go play with her truck. She makes the "bbbbbbrrrrrr" sound when she scoots the truck along the ground. It was so funny to see her doing this in her girly dress up clothes. I think it delights her daddy that she can play with trucks even when she is all dolled up.
