Recent Artwork

It's been awhile since I have posted artwork.  As I was cleaning out a bunch of it today (the girls create multiple projects a day), I realized I needed to take some pictures and put them on here.  Enjoy!

This is the igloo that Lily made at the beginning of school.  It's made out of marshmallows, and she had a great time making it.  She used it as a wedding chapel for Cinderella.  All the other princesses (and the dog who belongs in the dog house she made) attended the wedding.
 I loved this picture Lily colored at school of Noah's Ark.  I love that she made the boat with rainbow colors too.
 Lily learned how to draw giraffes at school.  When she came home, she taught Bama, Granna, Mia and me how to make them.  She gave us very thorough instructions to follow.  This was her Mommy and Daughter giraffe duo.
 Lily loves to watch the channel Sprout.  One of her favorite shows on there is Angelina Ballerina which is a little British mouse that does ballet.  It's a pretty cute show.  Well we found a craft project on sproutonline.com to make an Angelina puppet.  Lily was so excited about it!  She and Mia both made one, and they played for several days with these.
 While Lily was at school one day, Mia and Bama made sailboats.  Liz said that Mia just wanted to make one right after another.  Here's one of the finished projects.
 I was out of town this past weekend, and while I was gone, Lily made this heart for me.  She cut it out, glued a smaller heart that she had colored to it and then drew a picture of Ryan and me inside.  How sweet is she?
 They have been talking about families at school, so this is the picture Lily drew of us.
 While talking about families, Lily filled out a little information sheet too.  She said her favorite thing to do with Mommy is "to cook with her."  Talk about making me happy!  She notes that she knows her family loves her because "they play with me a lot" which is very true.  How fun to see her 4 year old perspective!
