Pudding Paint

Is it sad that it just started getting cold out and I already feel like I'm running out of entertainment for the kids?!  Yeah, that's sad.  lol

Yesterday we made Double Chocolate Pomegranate Cookies together.  YUM!  My kids are such good helpers.  Both were stirring and adding in ingredients.  While the cookies were baking the kids got to paint with pudding.  This was Lorelai's first time doing this.  Gabriel has been bugging me for several weeks for this...I finally caved.  I just don't enjoy cleaning up Lorelai paint messes.  Gabriel is fine.  So easy and mess free.  Lorelai looks like she is the artwork after she is done.  She even managed to paint her entire chest under her shirt.  And she maybe painted one little stripe on her paper and ate the rest.  Gotta love her priorities.  lol

Gabriel is so into being artistic these days.  I love watching him work.  His intense concentration and how proud he is of his work.  He's even great at coloring in entire characters in coloring books.  It just makes him seem so much more grown up than a few months ago.
