Jed is getting so big! Growing up, my mom always measured us on a stick. It was so much fun to look back and see our growth spurts. We realized Jed is growing so fast that we had to start tracking it!
We started with a few items from JoAnn's... there are soooo many cute pre-painted wooden figures. Trains, dinasours, guitars, surf boards, flowers, animals... It was very difficult to choose! Ultimately, Jesse thought the train was the best for us! Way to go!
A little paint...
We picked up a piece of wood from Home Depot. I used some red spray paint.
Also spray painted the P... getting creative for the drying!
My sister-in-law has an Cricket machine... it is so awesome! It cuts out different shapes, letters and numbers. I used black vinyl and cut out numbers and dashes. I started measuring out the distance and placing the numbers and dashes!
I used screws to screw on the black rectangle.
A little tacky glue and... we are done!
The whole project took 1 hour!
Jed, a little dazed from just waking up from a nap got his first mark!
You are so creative - this will be so much fun to watch him grow!!!
