Yesterday was a day of traditional Dutch dinner. Endive with mashed potatoes and bacon (everything is better with bacon right?). Peeling potatoes is a process with toddlers under foot, so I decided to let the kids have some painting time...interesting choice. They love to paint, but it's messy and Tomas is a perfectioninst (he didn't want to draw a sun because he couldn't make a perfect circle...hmmmm). It was a lot of fun, but not at all productive for me. HA!
Gabriella's hands were both covered in paint, and her smock/bib was as much of a work of art as her paper was...Tomas only had about five little splotches on his shirt, and his hands were spotless. Typical!
