Carving. Pumpkins.

Two weeks ago Nanny Kajsa and Ava went to the local pumpkin patch to pick out a pumpkin. They found a good one!
As the weeks came and went, the pumpkin kept sitting. So today, Ava and I decided to carve the pumpkin!


I have never carved a pumpkin by myself. I didn't know where to start! But I started out. I cut a leaf shape on the pumpkin's head, once that was cut, I began scooping out the insides! Ava helped and munched on some pumpkin while she watched. She thought it was fun to play with.


After scooping out all the stuff inside. I separated pumpkin from seeds and I began the pumpkin seed baking process!





I started with the eyes. I had no idea what I was doing, where I was going...and did not trace anything while cutting out the pumpkin.
And what do you know. It turned out to be a cat!


Maybe it was a sign. Because Ava got up from her nap, was roaming around and found out cat and went up to it and said "Kitty!".
She is saying a lot of new words lately!
"Kisses"
"Kitty" (not just KIKI)
"Ball" (not BA)
"Baby"

We had a lot of fun carving our pumpkin today and we had fun on our dress up play date at MMMM Yogurt with Cheryl and Addison yesterday!
