Bath Tub Picasso

Crayola Bath Tub Crayons... crayons for the bath!!! I know, right?! Makes me wish we had cool stuff like this growing up.

We highly recommend them.



We also recommend taking some Aleve because your arms will be sore from washing it off the tub. Although now that I think about it - this should be considered exercise as well... I mean I'm lifting 27lb "weights" (also know as my dear sweet children) countless times a day so why not count cleaning the bath tub as exercise too! On that note, I wish I could wash the tub with my abs...

And now for the proof that these little crayons work...



This was also an attempt at trying to get the girls to BOTH smile at the SAME time.

This shouldn't be hard, right?

I mean how difficult is it to smile when Mommy says: "Ok! Keep you eyes open, look up at me and smile when I say 'cheese'."

Obviously Peyton heard me, Grace did not.

Daddy always gets requests to draw things when we are coloring. To his credit he does a near perfect Mickey Mouse (of course he interned at Disney World during college so I really expect nothing less...) Apparently one of the girls made a request for Daddy to draw a mixed-breed dog or was it a character in Greek Mythology or was it a hair-less cat? The world may never know... But below is photographic evidence of what Daddy says is "Elmo", and I use the term "Elmo" lightly.

Daddy's "drawing" --- ~ --- The Real Deal


Elmo or blind-folded, left handed drawing of a horse?
You decide.

Amazingly the girls are coming along quite nicely with their penmanship. Check out this sweet note the girls left for me.



Makes your heart melt doesn't it?

A big thanks to Daddy for manning the first "bath with crayons" in a while AND managing to wash hair! That's not a feat for the faint of heart! Best Dad in the world!

  1. I'm going to go with hairless cat! Those crayons really look like too much fun. Maybe you should hand them over to me, although I would never make it to work on time anymore, if I had those to play with!
