A Clean Mess

May 3, 2013

One is tidy. One is messy. And now is not the time to disclose which child takes after which parent. Ha!

They needed bathing. Badly. As in, it couldn’t wait until after dinner. But Gage insisted he wanted to paint first. So, why not do both? Painting in the bathtub seemed only logical.

*use non toxic washable paint and no one gets hurt (including the tub).

    Unfortunately all of my boys have been the more “hands on” kind. This is a perfect idea for us! Thanks for sharing!

    Hmm, I think it’s fairly obvious from this post who the messy one is! Love those gorgeous boys of yours. 🙂

    This is such a great idea for fostering creativity in kiddiewinks! My sister paints and wants her baby daughter to grow up with that talent too so this would be a great way to get her started. I’m sending the link to her now!
