Art!

I needed some cheering up today, so I decided to do a craft project with Stella.  Being rather non-crafty myself, I had a little help from Charlie & Lola.  



All of our pieces coloured, cut out, and ready for assembly!  




Is this enough tape??
(Yes, we are still in our pajamas at 11:30am)




Apparently we don't have any glue sticks in this household - what kind of a mother am I?  Luckily, we have tape. 
Putting the pieces together.




Next problem: No popsicle sticks!  (I know, this girl is seriously lacking basic art supplies.  It's pathetic.)  Luckily, I know just what to do about this problem:




Ummm, what are you doing with those scissors...? 




Tying it all together.




Ta-dum!!




Refusing to pose next to the mobile.  (I got her into the picture anyway - note the feet at the bottom of the picture.)




Definitely a masterpiece.




What do you mean I'm not supposed to bat it around until it falls down, nearly taking the light fixture with it??!  (Crying ensues.)



Happy Crafty Tuesday.  Now let's nap.

I want a hand-made-by-Sarah-and-Stella-Charlie-and-Lola-mobile! Will you make me one for my birthday? You'll just have to eat some more popsicles...

That was absolutely adorable...you two should write a children's book.

You know, that whole scenario could have been about 24 or 25 years ago in Fresno...only with a little girl with slightly darker hair. I'm with Anna and Jonathan!
