Carving the pumpkins

So this year I thought Mathias would be more interested in carving pumpkins, since last year he was only 10 months old and didn't really care what was going on. Not so much. At first he wanted to help me carve the top out (he really just likes helping with anything). Then we stuck his hand in the pumpkin; he thought that was pretty weird. The only thing he was really interested in was picking the seeds up and either putting them in the bowl or back in the pumpkin. In one of the pictures you can see how interested he is in the whole process, and yes, that is daddy carving Mathias' pumpkin while he is in the background playing with his toys - notice he always has a car in his hand! All in all the pumpkins turned out pretty good, other than the fact that only 2 of the 3 got carved. I broke both of the little carving knives so Devin did not have anything to carve his cool skeleton design with. Oops!
