The Proud Artist

Somehow Lucy ended up with a purple crayon during her nap today. I poked my head into her room to make sure she was sleeping and found a wide-awake little girl who had drawn on every surface she could reach: the walls, the walls between the slats of her crib, the ledge of her crib, the adjacent bookcase, the crib sheets, her pillow - all were covered in purple scribbles. Thank goodness Crayola is washable and everything came right off with some scrubbing.

Lucy, as you can see below, was very proud of herself. She realized something was up pretty quickly, though, and started asking Melissa and me: "It's not funny?" No, Lucy, it's not. Well, maybe a little cute in hindsight now that I know there was no irreparable damage done. Many thanks to Aunt Mel-Mel for help with the cleanup.


Now Lucy is sleeping soundly in my bed. Here's a short video of the snoring beauty:
