Monet meets Picasso

Alex has suddenly taken a huge interest in painting. He wants to paint all the time, and it is a great activity for while I am cooking dinner because both boys are strapped in to their chairs right here by me doing something quietly and I don't have to worry about them killing each other or themselves!! Sam enjoys playing with the paints, brushes, and water, but rarely ever gets any paint on the paper. Still, for kids I figure it's the experience that counts, not necessarily the finished product!
