I think Townes might have OCD! He hates to have his hands dirty at any cost. Falling on his face, ruining his clothes, ruining mommas clothes. So I don't know why I had the bright idea to buy him finger paints. Slime for your hands, any kid would love it, right? Well,not our kid. He was so excited to paint until I put it on his hands, he didn't know what to do with himself. He nicely asked me, " Momma, off", I started laughing because I couldn't believe he was so grossed out by me purposely getting him dirty, he then was in panic mood. Needless, to say since this photo opt, we have been encouraging him to let that OCD go. He's doing pretty good. He did pick up a nasty bug yesterday, and I screamed "Yuck, that's a bug" he quickly threw it down and ran to dad. Dad then tried to convince him that the bug won't get him. Ah, he was making progress, I hate wormy looking bugs!

That's funny! I think Jake was like that when he was little too...but Townes seems a bit more extreme :)
Looks like fun though, I want to get my hands dirty and paint! :)
