Okay, so this post really isn’t about anything as on-topic and relevant as eye-hand coordination. It’s really just an excuse to show Ana and Emily drawing together. At 16 months old Emily has an amazing interest and ability to draw. She’s drawing circles and has started coloring them in. Her pediatrician didn’t even believe Jim when he said this – she said, “oh, she’s scribbling! great.” He said, “no, she’s drawing circles and coloring them in” and she apparently just nodded and smiled. But I have proof!
You see! Emily drew this picture today. She didn’t color anything in yet, but I think I took the picture away from her before she was done.
Ana as Peanut – A Self Portrait (4 years old)
Not to be outdone, Ana drew this self portrait of herself as a peanut. She drew another one of Emily as a peanut in the “baby hospital” and signed it. Thankfully for those of you reading this, the batteries in my camera died before I could snap a picture of it.
