Baby Notes

Last week (or maybe the week before now) I sat down to do an art project with my 6 and a half month old DS. The plan was to make note cards I could use for thanks you notes etc. That part worked, but not the way I thought it would. We started out planning to do cute things with finger prints. I was going to put baby finger prints all over the fronts of the cards in different colors and then add legs to make bugs. Cute idea I got from someone a long time ago (first name Michelle, last name I don't remember). As it turns out, it is difficult (at least alone) to make a baby put down just a finger print! We opted for a little easier and I painted with a brush the whole hand. This still wasn't easy, but we did get a cute hand print. Instead of bugs, we are just going with the hand print for now. Realistically, the recipiants will just love that it is his hand print and not care that there are no bugs.
