Painting with a toddler

So keeping a toddler busy is no easy task. I wouldn't trade this time for the world though. To be able to spend another year with my wee farm boy is so amazing. He is such a joy to be around and has a great sense of humour.

I found a use for old wrapping paper. Taped on the wall with painters tape it makes a great canvas for him to paint on.  He was surprisingly good about not panting on the walls, but did ask if he could paint me. 

No.

And could he please paint his sister?

No.

The dog?

Ah, no.

I did allow him to paint his feet and walk on the canvas. I can't be the mom who says no to everything, right?
