During Eloise’s nap time yesterday Noah decided to build a rocket ship while Penelope decided we’d play nail salon.
She came up with this:
Rainbow nails! Or as she likes to call them her “Jellybean toes”. Just perfect for our Spring weather and the fact that all last week they were learning about rainbows in preschool. She was over the moon crazy excited that she got to dictate momma’s nail color too…did you know we are twins now! Maybe someday soon I will get enough nerve to try to do Eloise’s nails so they can be sister twins. Right now I just don’t see her sitting still long enough for them to dry which would mean nail polish all over our carpet and furniture I’m sure.
Oh, and I’d love to say a big THANK YOU to all of you who voted for me over at Babble.com as last week I found out that Smashed Peas and Carrots was chosen one of the Top 50 Mom Craft Blogs of 2012. Totally cool!

I love the rainbow toes! I usually do this once or twice during the summer.
And congrats on the Mom blog recognition. This older Mom applauds what you’re doing with your little ones.
Maggie says
Those colors sure do make you happy when you look at them! And thank you for the sweet words, I really appreciate them!!!
Pip says
As a mom of three boys, I am so jealous right now!
Maggie says
Aww! Well, I will admit that I have painted Noah’s toes in blue and green since it’s no fun being left out of a nail painting marathon!

Maggie says
She is just too precious that girl!

JELLYBEAN TOES! What a great easter basket gift (I try to avoid candy since their grandparents give it to them in their baskets).
Looks like a quick pre-church pedi on easter morning will be taking place in our house…or maybe the bunny could paint their toes while they sleep for a nice surprise 🙂
Maggie says
These would totally be awesome easter basket gifts! The colors are awesome and the paint dries pretty darn fast too!
