Painting rocks

When you have nothing better to do..... Paint Rocks! Little Man loves to paint or "pake" as he calls it so I thought that it would be cute to get him to paint some of the little rocks that we have in our front yard.


First we gathered some small rocks. I decided to use the bottom of one those dog igloo things for us to paint on so we didn't make a mess.


Little Man looking down at the rocks and bringing me paint.



Little Man likes to paint himself more than anything else!


 Once they are done, throw them back with the rest of the rocks and you have a truly unique garden!

DIY ABC Book

I'm working on ABC's with Little Man right now so I decided to make him an ABC book with objects and people that are familiar to him, so maybe he will relate to them.


Great picture I know! Lol... but you get the idea!

I used this picture as the cover of his book. So we can practice singing the alphabet together without having to flip through pages.

I used D is for Daddy, B is for Ball Pit, F is for Football, and I used family members for letters that they fit into, like Gigi, Nanna and Papaw.

Like his I spy book, I just put these pictures into a small photo album. You could also laminate them and use binder rings to hold them together. Little Man is rough so he needed an actual album so his book didn't get tore up :(
