Watercolor Project

It is a little bit wet & windy outside today, so I thought it was a great day to try a Pinterest project that I pinned forever ago. For the project we just needed paper, watercolor paints, masking or painter's tape, and a paint brush. I used the tape to spell out Ben's name on one paper and make diagonal lines on another. Then, he painted the watercolors all over the papers. He had a fun time and it was an easy project to throw together on a rainy day.

 I taped B-E-N with masking tape. (Only because our painter's tape was really wide)

 The stripes with painter's tape.

 This paper didn't get quite as much painting. He said he was getting tired.

This little girl played on the floor with me while Ben was painting.

Lucy has been sleeping in her crib for a long afternoon nap and at night for the last 5 days. She is doing awesome with sleeping! For the nap, she will sleep about 3 hours and a couple of the nights have been all night long. Last night, she slept from 9:30-7:15. I'm not sure if that will happen all the time (sometimes she will get up around 4 am), but I will take it even once in a while. I am so thankful because I can function so much better with a good night of sleep! :)
