Busy Girls!

Lately Sophia is REALLY into coloring.  She sits or stands over her coloring books and spends lots of time coloring pictures!  It's so fun to see now because she actually stays in the lines and you can tell she is really understanding the concept, and really well for a 2 1/2 year old, I think.  She loves crayons, but lately she's been using colored pencils and markers (yikes!) and usually does really well keeping them on the paper only.  I can't believe how grown up she is and what a good artist she is turning into, although it should come as no surprise since both her grandmothers, her Uncle Kyle, Aunt Megan and her Bapa are all very talented artists.  I know she won't get any of that from me!!  I draw stick figures, very cute ones, but stick figures.  My first grade students were very impressed with my artistic skills, but I doubt anyone above the age of 7 would think much of them.  I really need to get some art projects for her, I think she would really enjoy some art time!   Maybe a Valentine?

Today, Tuesday February 8, 2011
My favorite moment was...I leaned over and asked Ellie for a kiss today at lunch.  She smiled, turned away and shook her head.  Silly little monkey!
My challenge was...laundry, my most despised chore!!
My question is...Why am I so hungry today??
Quote of the day...Sophia opened her bin with all her baby dolls and baby related toys, saw her fav. baby of the moment.  She gasped, pulled baby out and hugged her saying, "Oh Baby!  Are you OK?"  She was very sweet and gently rocked baby until she recovered!
Hope for tomorrow...Have a great day visiting with our friends from Redondo Beach.
