Finger Painting

I try to come up with different ideas for crafts....Sierra is 14 months old and well, crafts are not that easy with her. One big mess??? lol...It was a beautiful day and I decided to try finger painting. Thinking that she would love to get messy and enjoy the freedom, we got out the paint and went outside. Yeah, so the opposite!!! I dipped her finger in the paint and spread it on the paper...that was it. She just looked at me like "Are you serious?? You expect me to get messy??" lol...this is a kid who falls on the ground and sits there yelling with her hands reaching out til someone comes and helps her up and I expected her to do something messy?!?!? Well, needless to say, finger painting was a no go....but it was still a beautiful day so we stayed outside and played. Guess it's one of those things that we just try later on and hope she changes her mind.




We finally found a few outside play toys...so now we have a wonderful play set for our little girl to enjoy. The only thing left that we want is a swing. Only problem is that we don't have any trees that are right to hang a swing, so it means building something or buying a set. She loves her play set...she's still weary of the slides, but she knows how to get up to them!! She has no problem climbing up to the top of them, lol...she just won't go down them unless we pretty much push her. She is such a funny girl.



Newho, it's getting late and we've got a busy day tomorrow.
Love to all!!
