Sometimes she’s in her high chair to keep her squirmy ass in one place for longer than 45 seconds. The actual title for this post should be Color Wonder Markers, How Do I Love Thee? Let Me Count The Ways. But that was far too long.

The Color Wonder products? Pure freaking genius. Fantastically fantastical, I say.

Nora has only recently began to show an interest in coloring with crayons and markers. You know, as opposed to eating them. Apparently sometimes a girl just needs her daily dose of Burnt Sienna.

The extra awesome thing about Color Wonder Markers? It matters not if she eats them! They only work on the special paper. Good thing…because I’d have a hard time explaining why the 17 month old baby is sporting purple teeth.

My most recent finding is the printable pages on nickjr. Now she can color Gab-Gah! Gab-Gah! (Yo Gabba Gabba!) all day. She does this while I watch soap operas and polish my nails.

I particularly enjoy the level of concentration involved. I’ve never seen a more serious colorer. She loves to draw eyes. You can tell by the way she yells Eye! Eye! while crushing the end of the marker on the paper with triumph.

Her favorite color, by far, is Geen!, but Yo! is a close second. When she’s all finished she happliy exclaims Peeety! (pretty) and waits for the big to-do that is made of hanging the masterpiece on the fridge. However, after having to use photoshop to remove the dirty fingerprints from the wall behind her…I’m thinking we need to start hanging them there!
