Friday FUNday!

So instead of dragging Cake all around town to do grocery/coupon shopping I decided that today we would just stay home and have fun. When I asked Cake what she wanted to do today, her immediate response was PAINT! This kid has an artistic side to her that I just don't have. But I do try to have at least one day a week that I do a craft with her. Today we decided to paint some canvas as gifts for both Cake's Mimi and Nono. Then since we had left over paint and an unsatisfied creative bug we decided to pick some rocks up in the backyard and paint/decorate them. Turns out rock painting was a huge hit! Cake went to town on her rocks and even gave some of them names. I can't wait until these dry and we can place them all over the yard. I am thinking that most will go in the front yard (since the dog still insists on chewing apart any foreign substance he finds in his yard) and one will go on the patio table as a napkin weight. I must say that I have a feeling that as Cake gets older I will be that mom that collects every scrap of anything that Cake makes. I guess I need to start looking for huge storage bins on sale now!
