Ten months old, and he wanted to hold the spoon himself for his morning cereal. Well, why not? He has to learn sometime, right?
Well, he made the biggest mess I'd seen up to that point! As a result, the third page: "Then Straight into the Tub." Our Lab, Tucker, had just as much fun cleaning up as Aaron had making the mess, and I found out that fresh peaches don't wash out well.
The first two pages use paper and cardstock from various sources. The larger letters in the title are traced from a template and cut out; the smaller letters are written with a blue marker on white cardstock and colored around with a yellow-gold marker. The spoons and bowl are hand drawn and pieced together. The quote is my first computerized quote, printed on acid-free paper.
The third page uses Sharon Soneff letter stickers that I traced with a purple pen to help the letters stand out, and the "into" and "the" were done by hand to mimic the letter stickers. The tub, soap and duck are Jolee's. The curtain and rod are cut from corrugated cardstock. The puddle underneath is cut from regular cardstock and the tiled background (it doesn't show up well in the picture) is white cardstock scored every quarter inch to make tiny squares.
