Haines and I spent Saturday morning (October 29th) carving our pumpkin and it was so much fun. We decided that we wanted to do Mickey Mouse and used two small pumpkins for his ears. We thought it turned out really cute! Haines was very proud of it, but all he wanted to do while I was carving it was to play with the carving tool from the carving kit. I thought he was going to cut my toe off at one point when he flailed it around and braised my toe, so I had to take it away and of course he poured on the tears and screaming for a little while. We did finish and managed to separate all of the pumpkin seeds for us to toast later.
(Haines 2.5 yrs and Sarah 5 weeks)
On Halloween I picked Haines up from school a little early so we could go ahead and eat dinner early and meet our neighbors for trick or treating. Haines of course was Woody and Sarah wore Haines’ old Lion costume that he wore for his first Halloween when he was almost 6 months old. I had to make the Lion a little feminine so I put a pink bow in the mane. The costume was big on her, but she was so snug and warm inside the costume and slept the entire time. We met up with David, Rebecca, Russell and Mrs. Linn’s grandaughter. Haines is by far the youngest, but they are all so sweet to him (especially David and Becca). This was the first year that Haines knew what was going on and really got into it. We went farther than we had ever been before and Haines got tired and had to be carried a good bit of the way. He had the time of his life and was just enamored by the older kids and they were sweet to wait on him, and help him get candy and helped him keep up with his hat.
