She didn't think much of the goo inside but she loved the purple scraper. She started transferring the guts back into the pumpkin after awhile. This was the first time we have carved pumpkins as a family since I got married. Two Fish always wanted to wait for kids. Now we actually have one old enough to appreciate it a little bit.
Red Fish got tired of scraping so she made Daddy do the rest and she painted hers while I fed the baby and tried to supervise. We used Elmers squeeze and brush paint. She made me do the squeezing for her but she liked the brushes and I could still feed the baby while she used them.
I know our pumpkins aren't very imaginative but we were going for easy. Turns out carving pumpkins with a toddler is harder than I thought but totally worth it. It was fun for all of us.

I love that last picture. Thats one for the scrapbooks! I cant wait to carve pumpkins with Josh this week. I have visions of grand carved pumpkins in the end, but will probably end up going for easy as well!
Those are some pretty good lookin' jack-o-lanterns! Your babies are so stinkin' cute!!!
I'll be looking out for those Jack-O-Lanterns! Your kids are adorable.
OH,We haven't got to do this yet this year, too much party planning. Maybe Saturday. I love that One Fish is so tiny she could fit inside the punkins! SOO cute!
