We started painting the little pumpkins around 6 and I think Sophie crashed before 8. She didn't nap today and she was one tired little girl. She's been needing more sleep again lately... thank goodness. She did get to see the pumpkin I carved for her though, Snow White... just like she asked for.
For painting and carving Sophie is wearing a 2009 Target halloween top and an old pair of gymbo play shorts.
After she was done sitting on the pumpkins I gave her the paint color she asked for and a brush and she went to town on it.
Of course it needed to have some pink on it...
and then she added some green...
She thought she was done then, but I managed to convince her to add some black. When she was finally done she told Lee "I'm done painting my disaster".
I need to take a picture tomorrow of the finished product.
Then, Lee had her come over (he was sawing a lid for my pumpkin) and he lifted it up and it scared the bejeebees out of her. She stumbled backwards and her face just dropped. LOL She later said that she didn't want the pumpkin to "get her clothing dirty", but I don't buy that. Here is a video after the funny moment:
Then Sophie started scooping out all the "goo" for me! What a helper!!! She got most of it out herself!
The Snow White princess pumpkin I carved:
Sophie with both of our pumpkins, right before she went to bed.
Lee's pumpkin: Spooky trees with a moon and an owl.
Lee also carved a bat into the extra we had
I talked to my Dad a bit tonight on the phone and while I was doing that Lee was setting up his Halloween shrine. Then he made me take pics of it:
