The Artist
Josie continues to be very interested in doing artwork and craft projects. We're working on plans for a better outdoor painting area to make it easier to set-up when the mood strikes her.
This is a drawing she did (with a little Mommy collaboration), showing Josie marrying her friend Ziggy (their crowns have their initial on them - Josie's "j" is always backwards) and also marrying Twilight Unicorn (from My Little Pony). The tent-like curved lines are the "ballroom" she says. The unicorn is wearing a cape and a crown on top of her rainbow striped horn. She also has wings, so technically, she is a pegasus, right? The girls' dresses have long trains and flowers printed on them and they have large flowers in their hair.
Putting Evie to Bed
Josie loves to pretend to put Evie down for a nap and will read to her, or sing or rub her back (like they do at her preschool). Evie, of course, just loves the attention so she does whatever Josie says. Check out the end of this video where Josie is acting so sweet to her sister, but then covers up her mouth when she starts to talk too loudly... !
Ladybug Girl and Bumblebee Boy
Inspired by a recent play she had seen based on the books about Ladybug Girl and Bumblebee Boy, Josie put together her own show for us, with the help of her assistant, Evie. Homemade polkadot wings and the couch as the stage. The whole production was actually more focused on the pre-show announcements (e.g. telling us to turn off our cell phones, letting us know that there would be treats and a jumpy house after the show was over) and the post-show distribution of pretend candy and treats, etc. I'm not sure there was any actual show in between...
