Budding Picassos

We've already gotten a lot of mileage out of Santa's bounty this year. Christmas is well-timed - just before the cabin fever really starts to set in, you get a bunch of new toys to spice things up a bit. Ethan and Adam have been busy cultivating their inner artists, creating multi-media (yes folks, this easel allows chalk, marker, and crayon creations on chalkboard, whiteboard, and paper) masterpieces on their new easel from Noni and Papi. Adam is just beginning to "draw", and spends most of his art time doing this:
But Ethan is becoming quite the little artist, and has started drawing things that actually look like what he intended. Of course, they're not always flattering interpretations, like the time he drew an alien-like being with a gigantic head and gray hair, and then named his drawing "Mommy".
