Diaper Drawing and Diaper Derby

You know that time of day. The time of day when dinner is over, and the time before bedtime stretches before you. This is our favorite time of day, our family time, when dad and mom play with us mostly uninterupted. EXCEPT when daddy is gone, and this short amount of time seems endless for our mother. Here is what we did today...
Diaper Drawing and a Diaper Derby.
Step 1: Make homemade driveway paint...and don't forget the brushes!




Step 2: Get in touch with your artistic side. Try new techniques.

Step 3: Mix colors, Paint your brother, paint your mother...just have fun!


When the paint runs out, that means it is derby time. We raced around mom and Paige, until the sun began to fade! Bath and Bedtime! Wahoo!


I was the judge.

You are such a cute mom! That time of night is when I'm ready to wind down - not make homemade paint! Your kids will love you forever for making such fun memories for them.

I still haven't adjusted to the Carolina heat and humidity. I am thinking you 2 have the right attire for these hot summer days. I am a little jealous - take advantage of it while you can.
