Anyone For A Wagon Ride ?

Look At Her Go !

Proud Of Her Pine Cone

We are back at Charlotte's house this month, and we spent quite a long time exploring her back yard this afternoon. Will wasn't so sure about the dirt and the rocks.... but Charlotte convinced him to join her in her exploration !

They had fun pulling each other and going for rides in the little red wagon, collecting pine cones and stones, feeling the soft pussy willows, & climbing everything in sight !

Blue Playdough !

Will's Extremely Short Lived Love For The Playdough !

Charlotte Cookie Cutting

Charlotte's Creations

Will's Practically Untouched Dough Globs !! (Note The Unimpressed Expression !)

Today I made playdough ... BLUE playdough ! It was SO fascinating to see Charlotte & Will's completely OPPOSITE reactions to it !!

As you can see in the pictures, Charlotte got right into squishing the dough and experimenting with it. She used the cookie cutter a lot, and carefully made little dough balls, placing them in the empty cookie cutter. She also smelled it ( a new habit I think that I may have passed on to her ! )

William used the cookie cutter for about 10 seconds, and then simply stared at the mysterious blue dough globs, looking up at me for guidance. I demonstrated how to squeeze it, and ripped off a few pieces and set them in front of him. He carefully TRIED touching the playdough with apprehension ... and then made a disgusted face and threw the peices on the floor!! HAHA - He really didn't like the feeling of it on his hands !

It's so cute how their personalities shine through in almost every activity we do ! I think I will try the playdough again and see what happens... maybe Will will warm up to it :)
