After lunch Ben decided to paint a picture (he'd seen the kids finger paints I'd bought the day before and "needed" to use them). He was very serious while creating his masterpiece...sky...grass...flowers...self portrait...attempted a bird, but wasn't happy with the outcome and so changed it to a butterfly.
Jonathan also joined in the fun. Although, looking at these photos, you'd never know an hour earlier he was a whining monster. After listening to him whine, fuss, cry for just over a day, we took him to the doctor - what loser parents we are - turns out he has a double ear infection. I have to say, motrin is the most wonderful invention, within half hour of motrin and his antibiotics he was a different little boy.
This was the first time he'd painted at home, and the first time he'd ever held a paintbrush (at school it's finger painting).
and...this is how the artist looked after 20 minutes of fun
