Finger Painting Fun!




Easy Finger Paint
2 cups white flour
2 cups cold water
food coloring
Directions
Put water into a large bowl. Slowly add the flour, while the children are stirring. Once it's all mixed together, divide into smaller bowls and add food coloring.
So today we did so many activities. We did an art project this morning. Then we moved onto finger painting and that lasted a while. The boys both thought it was really fun and it was super easy to clean off. I just hosed them off. After the finger painting they needed a hair cut so I cut their hair and then we came in and cleaned off in the tub and we ate dinner and then made some really good cookies. They are posted on my food blog http://testkitchenrecipes.blogspot.com/.
So for the long wait in posting. It just seems like I can't get around to doing it. So we have been up to alot. Yesterday my sister and I went to the spa and relaxed. We both had never been and I had a gift certificate from my hubby. It was a beautiful spa and I will definitely be back and will make an appointment for a message or facial next time. I got really sick last week and that put me down for the whole week. I got sick the same week Cooper was sick. Good ol' sinus infection. We just really like handing out money to the doctor's offices and the pharmacy. When you guys don't hear from me for a while it is because Brach has had a couple days off work. He keeps us on the move. He is not one to sit around. I can't think of all the things we have been up to but we really have been up to alot.
Dillon is just getting bigger and is just so hilarious. A couple days ago at dinner we were sitting there and I was getting upset that he wasn't eating and he was playing around. I kept saying " Dillon eat." "Dillon eat." "Stop playing Dillon." After a while I was frustrated so I was getting even more demanding and was just wanting him to finish and he says to me."Mommy you are grouchy." I just broke out laughing. He has also started to say "Yes Mame." He told me the other day after I told him to pick up his toys he said "Eye, eye captain." It was hilarious! He just cracks me up. He says to me all the time "Mom, I'm the boss and you are the boss." I tell him "No Dillon I'm the boss." He still thinks he is the boss. Gotta' love him.

I am glad every one is feeling better. What a good idea with the fingerpaint. Last time I did fingerpaint with Olivia, she constantly ate it. We will see you next week!!
I love the finger painting- I should do that with my boys.
Love Dillon's comments. My 4yo acts like he is the boss too but when I ask him who the boss is, it is always me. He also says "yes mame," "yes sir" and "aye, aye captain." Where do they get these things?
Your boys are so cute. When Ben cut Rex's hair the first thing Noah said was, "He looks like Dillon." They love looking at your blog.
By the way, my pharmacy knows me by name now. Isn't that sad!
The best news we got last week was Rex can go off all his medication because he hasn't had an attack in a year. YIPPEE!!!
Hey Cameron told me to let you guys know that the graduation is about 2 hours long and not very kid friendly, so you will probably want to get a baby sitter. Let me know if that is a problem!!!
hey! you really need to call me back, i want to chat! Sounds like fun, and little Randy does tha same thing with the trash can & refrigerater as cooper :) we need to get these 'tude boys together :)
Oooo the finger painting looks fun. I am going to try that recipe and see what Eliza does :) She loves making messes! Sucks that Cooper is allergic to so many things. Luckly we have doctors to fix them :) I felt like I was paying my doctor to be a personal assistant a couple of months ago. I know how you feel!
Once again you are a super fun Mom! I really need a backyard! Hopefully next year. Then I can try out that recipe.
