Pumpkin carvin and cookie bakin

















To help us get into the Halloween spirit, we decided to carve pumpkins and bake cookies tonight.  We sat you on the table and took your shirt off, a guaranteed mess maker.  We gave you a bowl, your pumpkin and a spoon and let you go to town pulling out the seeds.  At first your were more fascinated with the seeds, you even tried to eat them.  You worked hard scraping out the inside of the pumpkin with assistance from me. Uncle Tom Tom and Ashley came over to help.  Uncle Tom Tom carved your pumpkin for you, its was perfect. Sissy, Barbie and I worked hard on cleaning out our pumpkins and then deciding what we wanted to carve in them.  They went with the traditional funny faces, I carved "Stink".  After we had the pumpkins cleaned I went ahead and gave you a bath, then we moved on to cookie baking. Aunt Barbie decided she needed to throw a ball of dough at my face which then started our cookie dough fight. It was quite hilarious! You were being a trooper but it was getting very late so we went ahead and brushed your teeth and put you to bed before we got to decorate the cookies.  You had such a good time! I can't wait to do it again next year.
