Splendid Sunday in the Sun...

This morning I played with daddy and went grocery shopping with mommy... nothing really "blog worthy"... but mom made up for it this afternoon when I got up from my nap...

"What do you have planned mama?"


1st some finger painting! Mom bought me a roll of butcher paper at the craft store and taped it to the lid of my sand table... which is now also my art table!

I knew just what to do...


Have I mentioned I'm starting art classes next week? Mom thought it would be good for me to practice before we start...


I didn't mind getting dirty at all...


Adding some Barney purple to the mix...


I was so proud of my painting...


Finally mom helped me add a hand print...


Ta-da!


That's SO neat!


All done!


Here is my masterpiece... things sure have changed since mom was a kid... now you can just take a picture of the artwork and the picture becomes the art... mom has seen calendars made of children's art, coffee table books and even postcards... She's thinking she will collect some and then make magnets out of them... neat idea huh?


My hand print...


To wash off... I got in the pool!


Maggie is the only one brave enough to swim in the big pool right now, it's still REALLY cold!


I even got to have a messy treat... a popsicle!


YUMMY!


The last time I had one I cried when it melted on me, but I didn't mind at all today since I was already wet... mom is restricting all popsicles to the pool...


Dad got one too... he had done some serious yard work while I was napping and needed to cool off...


This is the life!


I also got to break in my new pool slide!


I was super proud of myself that I could climb the slide...


Watch me slide...


and swim...


The finger painting and pool wore me out... so I watched Barney while mom finished up making dinner...


I got a Barney doll yesterday... he sings "I Love You"... mom says that Barney deserves his own special post on my blog because I love him so much, so watch for that this week... let's just say that he is my new best friend...


After dinner we had diaper box races around the living room...


When mom was uploading the video from the pool she found these from when I watched So You Think You Can Dance on Friday... I love that show!


I'm ready for the Top 20 to start performing!
