Yesterday was a beautiful day. It was sunny and 75 degrees. We ran some errands in the morning and since Megan had been asking for sidewalk paint (chalk isn't good enough, apparently), we picked some up in the morning.
While Jake was napping in the afternoon, Megan got started on her outdoor art project. Jake woke up and decided to join her. First, I was thinking "oh boy, Jake and paint sure don't mix". But, he got in there and was loving it. I was going through the mail on the back porch and he was just sitting on the sidewalk painting away. I started thinking that I should get out a book or a magazine and relax. I made it about a third of the way through the Pottery Barn catalog and hear, "MOM! Jake painted on my swimsuit" I got up from my chair and walked down the stairs to see Megan swiping a roller full of sidewalk paint across the top of Jake's head.
Obviously, I didn't want to get in the middle of a paint fight, so from afar, I told them to stop. They ended up with paint all over their arms, clothes, faces and hair. Needless to say, they had an early bath time.
I liked this photo of Megan, so I had to include it. This morning, when we were driving to Debbie's...I reminded her that she was going to be "Person of the Day" at school on Tuesday. When she's person of the day, she brings the snacks, so I asked her what snack she wanted. She said, "I want Rice Krispies. The sticky ones".
