Advent Calendar: Paint lion mask

Mommy put another painting activity in today's Advent Calendar. When I told you what we were going to be doing you said, "Like box #2?" I was confused at first, but then I realized that box #2 was the activity where we painted the lion mask. What a good memory you have!

Today I made you do a cute pose. Keke.

Opening box #10. It's crazy how you seem to know what box to open each day. I sometimes
lose track of what box we are supposed to be opening, but you always remind me.

You also started a tradition of lining up all the labels in a straight line.

What a weirdo you are…

Excited to get started on painting. I brought you the pirate mask for you to look at while
we were going to paint the lion mask.

Aidan: "Cheese!"
It's funny how you put your eye over the wrong eye hole.

I only had 3 paint colours so that's what we had to work with.

You're beginning to have a better grip when you are holding a paint brush.

I took a video of you painting the mask. Excuse my voice. I was extremely sick. As were you. Everyone seems to be sick these days.

Holding up his 2 creations.

You got paint in your hair. When I told you that you immediately wanted to take a bath.
That's something that is sooooo daddy-like- You are you extremely OCD.

Comparing the 2 masks.

I gave you a few blank papers so that you could paint more.
