There's no greater mess...

 Than the 'post-Christmas' mess!

 Playing with new toys, giggling,..

 It's the best day a kid could have!

 Oh yeah...and then there's THIS mess...

 The 'post-flood' mess!

 Ugh.  Sigh.  Hello messy basement that smells musty....  I miss you! 

Please come back to us soon!!!!

Light Brite!

 To add to the rainbow decor gracing the carpet...we now have light brite pegs!

 And Daddy insisted he get to play, too!

 Voila!

 Very proud of their creation!

 Lucy gets in on the action, too!

Good thing it has 4 sides - everyone can play!  Thanks, Aunt Wendy!

Peek!

 Cat in the box?

 Apparently the girls aren't the only ones who liked that 24 pack of Play Dough!

 A box with holes = a gym for kittens!

 Too cute!

Hours of unending fun.  I wonder if the makers of Play Dough know of this great toy?  Perhaps we're on to something!

Food is no match!

 For this kid!

 She becomes "one" with it all... admiring the art work on her hands???

 Totally zoned out....making a mess!

 Yep.   This kid is the reason moms made bibs!

 Um,... and forks!

Yum.  If you happen to see us dining out, please don't judge.  There's no one quite like our Lucy!

Play Dough!

 Aunt Jill gave us 24 cartons of play dough for Christmas, so naturally we had to play!

 Do you think we have enough colors now?

 I had to find another rubbermaid container - one to hold the dough, and one to hold the tools!

 Such concentration!

 Making a mustache?

So silly!  Thanks, Aunt Jill!  It was a hit!  And I now have rainbow colored carpeting under my kitchen table, in case you were wondering!
