Development and drawing!

[ailbhe]

Just the other day I was talking to someone who asked whether Linnea was doing representational drawing yet, and I said not really, because although she draws and announces that she's drawing a wheel, that's it. One representation, which anyway I think is based on the Fimbles.

So this morning first she drew a "circle" and coloured it in - inside the lines for the most part, and then she drew a head, eyes, a nose, and ears. So much for non-representational. Wow. I'm impressed.

The circle was sort of like a fish-sketch, if you know the simple fish shape I mean, only the triangle of the tail wasn't closed.

We got her a better booster seat and some playdough, later, because when we had a guest over for lunch there was only one booster seat between two kids, and the booster seat we bought at first was primarily intended for travel anyway and wasn't ideal for everyday use.

Dinner was leftover Pat Kight's Curry and it was splendid, but it's too hot for Linnea. Less cayenne next time.
