Today both of the kids had dentist appointments (Gavin's 1st!) and then we headed to Grandma and Grandpa Phillips' house to drop off Gavin for a special Grace & Mommy time.
I had purchased a Groupon deal awhile back that was good for 2 mugs plus studio time at a local pottery painting place and I thought that since Grace loves being artsy and she is getting old enough to do something like this, that it would be a fun time for us. Not to mention, Father's Day is a couple weeks away and it will make a great keepsake gift.
In the amount of time that it took me to paint my mug a single color, Grace was finished with hers. Of course I had to help her with the majority of the artwork and to make sure the paint was thick enough to not be all streaky once fired in the kiln. It will be interesting to see how they turn out once we go back in a week to pick them up.
Here are a few pictures from our "day out" which was followed by McDonalds Happy Meals. :-)
I realized that I need to spend more one-on-one time with each of the kids because it was very enjoyable for the both of us.
I should mention that at her Dentist appointment, Grace had been numbed in her upper right gums and lip which caused her to smile a little differently than usual.
