Charlotte Picasso

January is "Art Makes Me Smart" month at Charlotte's school (Chautauqua Art and Day School). They do art projects every day of the month and at the first of February the school holds a fundraiser art show. The parents get to purchase the childs artwork and also bid on group canvases the school did. They had all sorts of art work -- photographs made and hanging from the ceiling, bubble art, plaster work, spin art, chalk art, pencil drawings, silhouettes, you name it! Even the little ones (like Charlotte) get to participate in almost all of the activities! What a fun afternoon we had going to view all her talents... here are just a few of her works of art!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Well - I feel like such a "mom". We made Valentines the other night for all the kids in Charlotte's class. So much fun! Today, when I dropped her off, we placed all the cards in their appropriate Valentines Day bags. The kids are all exchaning today and having a little party at lunch time. Weren't those days the best??? I look forward to doing this each year and seeing her enjoy these times as much as I did as a kid!

Little Red Head in a Little Red Wagon...

Charlotte's first ride in her Radio Flyer! This was a gift from our friends who threw us a shower (before Charlotte was born). She loves it! Charlotte would rest one arm outside of the wagon and cruise along... she's so cool.

She thinks its funny when you turn around and walk backwards (facing her) while pulling the wagon. We've only ventured around our cul-de-sac a few times so far. A real neighborhood walk might be in the works!
