On Sunday, we carved our Jack-o-lanterns. This was the first year since having Gavin that we actually carved the pumpkins... not that he is super deprived or anything, I just always found that it was easier to let them paint them than to deal with knives etc.
I think that my past idea might have been better than deciding to carve them... this was the face Gavin was making as we tried to convince him to stick his hand in the pumpkin to pull out the "junk." Needless to say, he never actually put his hand in, but he did use a spoon and scoop out about 2 seeds... and I did the rest.
Henry wasn't as afraid of the mess, but he still was just excited to get to swing around large utensils.
Gavin made our design, which was pretty much make all of the parts of the face look like mountains (aka triangles).
Caleb had more than enough help trying to make something a little more elaborate with his pumpkin.
I think this pretty much say it... we were satisfied with our results, and we have to light them almost every night, so that the boys can blow out the candles.

Gavin is such a stinkin cutie!!! I love carving pumpkins.
How did Caleb even carve when he had the monkey's climbing all over him? He should get extra points for that!
