Another peg doll

See the face? She tried faces on the first two and wasn’t happy with them (I think her fingers slipped or something so they didn’t turn out as she had envisioned them), but the third time was the charm.

Emma’s fine motor skills always amaze me. And they balance out her gross motor skills – she didn’t learn to climb until Johnny (nearly 22 months younger and king of gross motor skills) taught her how, and she mastered jumping this month after over a year of trying. Funny how kids are so different within a single family…

I definitely need to get this girl some colored sharpies (to be used exclusively under supervision during Johnny’s naps). And a few more peg dolls – maybe we’ll find some other 3D objects for her to let her imagination go wild with also. If I’m feeling ambitious, we may try some fabric scrap clothing for the peg dolls as seen in this post at ikat bag – I’m guessing Emma would love that!
