Bathtime Fun

We have a princess problem in the house. Both mommy and daughter are obsessed with princesses. Daughter more than mommy, but we're both guilty. More about that one another time. Onto the bath fun. So we've done bathtime paint before and it was a blast, but recently my little princess wanted to "paint the stars" like in Disney's Tangled. So last night we did it. I got the recipe for the paint from a book (The Everything Toddler Activities Book) but it's so simple. 1 part cornstarch, 2 parts soap (I just use the baby shampoo/soap that we always use in baths) and a drop of food coloring. I only make a little at a time because she uses all of what I give her in one bath usually. I was very proud of her painting. I think its the first time she's made something purposeful artistically. Usually she just plays with whatever material we're using.




And because the little one is so fun. Here's a picture of him right now. (In the back is the princess watching "Brave." I told you we have a problem.)
I just weighed him and my little three and a half month old weighs about 17 and a half pounds. His big recent achievement is he can roll over, both front to back and back to front.
