Playdough

I was talking to Spencer some time back about how difficult it is for me to sit down and play with Liam because my imagination does not run the same path as his and I get bored too quickly. Then I had a revelation. Play with him the ways that we can be together, play together, but I don't have to pretend that I am getting eaten by dinosaurs over and over again. :) First off we made pizzas. Then came our flowers. He loved my little caterpillar so much he had to duplicate it. Then we made faces.

Can you tell which are his and which are mine? LOL. Liam tried to tell me that mine were better than his but I explained that they were just different. After all I have quite a jump on him in the experience department. I think he did pretty darn good for a 5 year old.

At the end, as I was deconstructing my face, I decided to have a little fun with "my" lips. Hope you enjoyed these as much as I had fun creating them with my little man.

Two footnotes. 1. Sorry for the not so great qualities of the photos. That's what happens when all you have on hand is your camera phone. 2. For those who are curious: the toppings on the pizza are pepperoni, green peppers, and red onions. What can I say, there is only so much your imagination can come up with to create with limited colors of playdough. ;)
