I wanted to share another favorite painting. This is Peanut when she was about 6 months old. So dainty! I love the juxtaposition of the feminine dress with her expression and her rolls. She looks like a sumo wrestler in a dress!
After she was born, she lost more weight than usual and worried her pediatrician. Just like in the Clifford books, we were hoping for her to grow and boy did she ever! Ladies would stop me at the store and ask her if I put rubber bands around her arms to create those rolls.
A couple months after this, she began to slim down. I love this portrait because I'm reminded of her at 6 months in all her chubby glory!
