Sophia's Art (1)

Sophia had a prolific day of painting on Saturday. While Karen and I painted the exterior of our home, Joan spread out newspaper and Sophia got completely naked. After painting every part of her body, Sophia got down to the business of art. She talked through some of her designs prior to painting them, with others she simply put the brush on the page.

Meanwhile the adults painted the exterior of the house around the new bedroom windows and the front door we put in last fall. Jeremy and I started painting the exterior of the house when we moved back in around Thanksgiving 2001. I was under the misguided assumption that I would still have time to work on things around the house after Sophia was born. About the time I could really devote a good chunk of energy to projects around the house, Francesca was born. Now we are hitting that sweet spot where the kids are old enough to play while we work, yet they don't have tons of outside activities/lessons that they have to be taken too. That said, my goal is to have the house exterior painting finished by the end of August.

I don't have any pictures of the adults hard at work, but I have some Sophia-made eye candy!

Sweet! More painting. Painting is good. Especially when I don't have to do it :)
