Coloring Time

This summer Libby and Drew enjoyed coloring almost every day. They could spend at least an hour sitting down and coloring at least 3 or 4 pages. I'm really impressed to see how well they are coloring within the lines at only 4 years of age.

Here are some of Libby's creations:

And here are Drew's (notice how he mostly chooses "work" pages, which is exactly his personality):

Look at this dot-to-dot page he did all by himself:

And then, he tried to do this page, which was a color-by-number page, thinking it was a dot-to-dot one:

I would have been so confused, too!

Drew isn't as willing to practice writing his name and that's certainly okay. He's still young. But one day he practiced a lot and did great!

Libby is trying so hard and is getting better at writing her name every day!

Oh, and both of them are really into having birthday parties and other special outings for their stuffed animals and "sweeties". One day they spent a lot of time creating this... it's the invitation to the birthday party. I guess they have my genes. :-)
