Not far from what it's like everyday...Megan hanging on me, while Tess, sitting across from me, actively coloring. That's what I'm doing here, coloring with Tess. I thought I could get away with working on something else while she colored, but she insisted we work on the same thing. I need to get that girl some photos and paper to play with so we can do the same thing.
Though I'm not a fan of getting hung on, I have enjoyed having this time with them. In my studio, creating with me, while I wait for laundry to dry and dinner prep to cook. I guess it's the next best thing to everyone napping, everyone doing something together that we all can enjoy.

oh that photo looks heavenly...I must admit that in the craft/art department it has been soo hard to contain my children to a nice activity where they can accomplish something and me too! I think those days are gone for a long time, or when everyone is asleep...at least yours sound very very peaceful and compliant...even though they climb...
Just beautiful. Will this day ever come for me?
It IS the next best thing to everyone napping!
I.love.it.
so sweet, they love you so much.
That is a great pic! We have some days like this, but not often, especially with a 2 year old boy in the house! I say definitely give her some photos and paper, my girls love to do scrapbooking!
I love how you continue to do the things you love with kids attached. I'm going to count my boys playing on the ground beside the computer while I blog. Probably not the same thing, but for the less talented, it's all I got!
Maybe you need to school Tess on the beauty of just being near each other while you're doing creative things, rather than you both having to do the same thing.
