Get Colorful

Marker time! The girls wanted to color and I have somehow lost the crayons so markers it was, and I am happy for that because they had fun using them and getting them to put the caps back on is a non issue (where were these kids when I was teaching?). Both kids love taking off caps, lids, or a top of any kind and try to put it back on. They've been doing this trick for about a year now and it hasn't gotten old yet. Score one for me- no dry markers!
The girls had fun coloring and at one point a small line of marker got onto the floor and the choir of "ut-ohs" started. I told them that it was okay but Alex wasn't satisfied with that answer so she went over to the kitchen towel drawer (on her own accord) and got a towel to 'clean up' the marker. It was so cute and she was happy with the results of her cleaning, when she was done she picked up the towel, looked at the spot, did a quick nod and then dropped the towel and continued drawing.
Sometimes the girls get into the drawing process and sprawl themselves across the paper-last night was no different. Luckily the markers dry quickly or I would have had a toe dye effect on their bellies before the night was out.
Enjoy the pictures. And it the 3rd picture you can see that Kaylee drew a triangle. I know she probably didn't make the conscience decision to do so, but nonetheless it is still a pretty darn good triangle.
