Naked Finger Painting
Anyone who has kids will understand why it has to be this way, Chloe took the whole concept of finger painting to a whole new level and decided that she needed to use her whole hand. I knew from past experience with her that she would do something along those lines so I made her do it like this. I got her very prepared for the situation with a large roll of paper that I put out on the floor and nothing or so I thought that she could get into too, while I was absent she thought that she would step in the paint on the paper and walk around the house, thank heavens I caught her before she did, but that didn't stop her from trying to put her hands prints everywhere, of which I now have a lovely set on my carpet. Once all the pots of paint were gone and I mean gone, we had to wash up and that meant getting into the shower because nothing else would have worked. She still had colored hands for a couple of days but no worse for the wear. I would like to thank the person or persons who thought it would be a good idea to give her this for x-mas and maybe send them the bill for getting my carpet cleaned 

Here are the girls showing off their new jammies that nannie Pat has made them for x-mas. Chloe is also a great big ham when the camera comes out she always needs to make some sort of funny face. 

Katie this a kid taking after your own heart. Chloe has discovered fluff, and that is the only thing that she now wants to eat, she can't remember what it is called from day to day but she still wants it. In case you can't tell from this photo she doesn't hold back when it comes to getting a fluff sandwich. 

Step 3 we get all the way over and check me out I can roll over to the left all by myself. 

Step 2 we get over onto our side or so and try and get up on our arms. 

1...2...3...4 This is how Ella rolls over
Step one we start to get a roll on so that we can work up some momemtum. 

Little Ella got tired just at the thought of going outside and running up and down and up and down. Sooner or later she will be going on her pins and then we won't be able to get to stop just like Chloe. 

As you can see a little fresh air and running up and down nannie's hill sliding put this little one right out. 

Gone the rest of the way down the hill, they had to put out their feet to brake, so it wasn't the most graceful stop that we have ever seen, definately not going to make it to the olympics this year. 

Sliding at nannie's house on Sunday afternoon Mark is giving Chloe and Brandon a push to give them just that little extra they need to get down the hill.
