I "spotted" Eli in the tub!

For Christmas Eli had gotten these bathtub finger paints which I had read a lot about and had put on his list. Turns out that they don’t seem to work to draw paintings on the tub very well, but they do work great to make splotches all over Elijah! That’s actually what he’s most interested in doing anyway, so it all works out. We’ve been having fun in the tub turning Eli into a spotted-Eli, and that’s pretty much all Eli wants to do in the bathtub now. Mommy splotches him up (which we turn in to a game in itself) and then Elijah takes the fish sponge that came with the paints and tries to clean himself off before Mommy can put more spots on him. We may not be using the paints like I thought we were going to, but I think we’re having a lot more fun playing with them our own way!

Mom's painting me blue!

Hey, Mommy got some on my arm.

I'll just get rid of this a second.

How did Mom do that?
First she dipped her hand in here . . .

Then she painted my tummy, like this!

It's fun when I do it too!
