Ellie's First Art Project!

Ellie made her first cards for Mother's day!
I drew a black body in the center of a piece of cardstock, then I folded half the paper back and taped it to her highchair. I put two dollops of tempera paint on the paper and let her smear it around to make the butterfly wings.

I don't know why, but I didn't take any pictures of the finished projects! I'll try to track them down and get a picture. They were so cute and she had a blast making a mess.
I just hope she didn't eat too much paint!

Miscellaneous

Here are some random pictures from the last few months:

My blow-dryer is one of Ellie's favorite things to chew on....a cord and a huge tag! What could be better?!?!


This was Ellie's first bath without her bath ring. She had figured out how to get out of it, so I decided it was pretty useless now.






We don't usually let her crawl on the kitchen floor, so she's very excited when she gets to be in there!

Easter

on Easter Sunday, we went to Mimi and PaPa's house for lunch after church.

We hid eggs for Caitlyn to find, and in the evening a friend of Melissa's came over with her 11 month old. The Babies had fun shaking the eggs that had candy in them.

Texoma

A while back, we went to Lake Texoma for the weekend. My grandfather had a suite out there and my mom and brothers were there.

We went hiking around a little bit. I have no idea what lake that is!
