Craft Time

Gianna and I have craft time just about everyday. Last week we decided to have it in the morning. Elizabeth and Cosette decided to join in on the fun and create some masterpieces of their own. We all had a good time. I did, however, have to separate Elizabeth and Cosette very shortly after this photo was taken. It seemed that not only did they want to share crayons, Elizabeth wanted to draw on Cosette's paper. Cosette was NOT a fan of this and let ALL of us know about it. It's has been a little challenging to keep three little girls occupied in the mornings now that the babies have dropped their morning nap. And it seems that Elizabeth has decided to give Cosette extra "love" touches. "Soft hands" is a phrase that gets said a lot in our house these days! Along with the ever popular "It's OK. You are OK."
They have come along way since May- the last time I was brave enough to let them try it. This time they colored and really did it for a while until they ate the crayons. We used the first crayons from Crayola. They are super fun to use and they are washable (read if you try to eat them they leave a color trail all over!)
Elizabeth liked to try out her new teeth and take chunks out of her crayon. Cosette just liked to suck on hers. She had the orange crayon so a couple of times I was sent into shock as I glanced at her mouth at what I thought was a baby emergency.
Always a party with the Ludlow Ladies!
