Moving & Coloring

Ahhhh.... a sweet little blog hiatus. Sorry about that. We've been moving. 8 months prego with a toddler plus moving boxes doesn't make a for a pretty picture. Not. At. All. Whew. It was a long few days...and now that we're "in", we're so happy to be here! Abby started truly coloring before we moved.

Example here :



And today, when I left for literally three minutes, I returned to find this on our freshly painted kitchen cabinets.


It's our first "holy moly, what did you DO?" event. I'm sure with another little one coming (and therefore my eyes not able to always be on her) this is the first of many. Should I invest in that miracle eraser thing? And I just want to add.... there isn't one color going on here. There's five. Five. I know. She's creative.

And just in case you need the magic combo for erasing the damage -- it was baby wipes and rubbing alcohol, Problem solved.

180. wipes and alcohol (duh!)
181. a creative girl
182. a full size dishwasher
183. a self rimming sink in the kitchen
184. 80 degree days
