Finger Painting Fun

It is so nice today that Lane and I couldn't resist being outside. I decided it was time to try finger painting. Lane doesn't like to get his hands dirty and I was afraid of a disaster so we've been putting it off.
Lane checking out the paper and the paints.
I got some paint on the paper for Lane to put his hands in and he wanted nothing to do with it. So I got out a paint brush and he loved spreading out the paint.
Making progress.
Trying out using the bottles to spread the paint.
"Mom, I need more paint."
Looking for missed spots.
Having fun messing around. Does this stuff smell?

The finished product. Isn't he cute covered in paint.

I think next time we'll try finger painting with ketchup. Maybe Lane won't mind getting his hands messy if they taste good afterwards.
