got art?

Thomas' first artwork. Everything he does requires the use of both hands, even coloring! It isn't enough to have one crayon. He has to have a crayon in each hand. You might call him a "two-fisted colorist". He incorporated some stippling, some simple strokes and, when helped, even a little heavier hand to get some great areas of color. Budding artist?

He has been dabbling in all kinds of new foods these last few weeks. Those with stronger flavors make his taste buds happy. Kalamata olives, cherry tomatoes, raspberries... In an effort to further expand his tastes, this morning I saw him reach into Greta's food bowl (bless her heart -- she didn't protest verbally or physically!), pull out a kibble and pop it into his mouth. He stood there smiling at me as though he understood we don't eat dog food. I, of course, removed the kibble and quickly escorted him out of the kitchen and away from the girls...
