The day after we had our corn maize adventure we carved our pumpkins. Kaitie and Adam came over with their carving tools and some newspaper to cover the counter and we got started.
We all had sharp tools trying to cut through our huge, thick pumpkins. I promise Niko only had a scooper and a little plastic poker! He was pretty excited at first though. And of course he kept saying “goats, pumpkins” and we had to remind him of this when he tried to take a bit out of the top of the pumpkin (and not just once, why does my kid have to learn everything multiple times?)
I think he enjoyed pulling the guts out. Of course only for a limited time then he let mommy finish the fun stuff.
I don’t know what was happening here, but he looks excited (the kid doesn’t smile from excitement, is that weird?) When he got bored of pulling out guts and such I stripped him and gave him some permanent markers to color on his pumpkin. He told everyone about it for quite a while so I’m assuming he loved the pumpkin activities.
