Coloring

We love Melissa and Doug in our house so when I read about their jumbo crayons, I got really excited.

Here's why:
     * They are non toxic
     * They are triangle shape so they don't roll
     * They are made of plastic meaning they won't break like wax does
     * They are nice and big for fat toddler fingers learning to hold onto things

Although they have been taste-tested one too many times, Drew seems to enjoy coloring on his sketch book with these crayons. My father is a talented artist and Derek's brother Matt can sketch like no other so I'm glad to see that someone else is continuing the drawing chain in this family! 

Future Picasso perhaps?

And on a side note, the "Sanibel Shed" is going well as Derek and I are now officially the lowest we've been since being a senior in high school! I really would like to lose another 5, but Derek and I are rewarding ourselves tomorrow with a splurge day. Bagels for breakfast, Jimmy Johns for lunch, pizza for dinner and a yummy piece of cake from a local deli to top it all off. I. CAN'T. WAIT.

And then it's back to the grind to lose 5 more pounds and tone up my deflated tummy before this.....
