Future Artist? Maybe Not.

To finish off the playroom we thought it would be fun to have Hailey finger paint and frame her art work. It all started out fine, she wasn't quite sure what to do until I got her started. After putting her finger in the paint and rubbing it on the paper she got the hang of it. She was doing really well and even asking for the other colors and mixing them together, but she would only use her finger. She finished the first paper all by herself (we had 4 to do) and by the end her hands were covered in paint. When I tried to move on to the next page and she realized she had to do more and that her hands were dirty she flipped out. So with a little help from mom we finally got all 4 pages done. I had to keep wiping her hands through out the process because she did not like the paint all over them. It turned out to be easy for me because there was no mess to clean up afterwards (lol).
The funniest part of the day was when we were all done and I was laying out the papers to dry Hailey went and got her vacuum cleaner and started vacuuming the kitchen. So I guess a career in painting is out but she might just have her own cleaning business one day. We got all the pictures framed and hung on the wall before daddy got home and surprised him with a finally finished room.
