Vienna's recent obsession...
Coloring. To the extreme.
Granted--she's always loved to color, but lately it is ALL she wants to do. Its the first thing she does when she wakes up in the morning...before she goes to bed...and all the time in-between. She pulls out her box of markers and crayons, helps herself to a paper or a coloring page...and colors away.
She absolutely loves it. I wouldn't doubt she dreams about coloring...
I don't mind at all. Not only does it keep her occupied, but it is just so fun to watch her do something that she loves. She calls them: "my picture," which is so stinkin cute to hear her say. She's so proud of her drawings. She shows every one of them to us, often holding it up saying, "Ta-da!"
Often times she'll show me her picture as it progresses and go back to the table to add more to it. When she's finished she likes to hang them on the fridge...
Or on the wall in our bedroom.
It is super fun to watch how her coloring style progresses and what she decides to do each time. Sometimes her pictures have consistent patterns, other times they're totally random. It breaks my heart to throw a single drawing away.
She goes through probably at least 15 pieces of paper a day...no lie. And there is constantly random drawings strewn across the floor at all hours of the day. We ran out of paper yesterday and she was so sad about it all day long. I told her Daddy was bringing some home from work and the minute he walked through the door she asked him for the paper.
My little artist...just a little obsessed. :)
