We let Brooke help us clean out her pumpkin this afternoon. She was quite helpful...in her own little prissy way. It was "yucky", after all. I'm actually surprised she helped at all. She probably wouldn't have had she not seen the pumpkin-carving episode of Special Agent Oso about a million times in the past 2 weeks. (Oso is a pretty cute Disney Jr. show about a bear that helps little kids learn how to do something. She has actually learned a lot from this show. Ok, I'll stop defending the fact that I let my toddler watch probably too much TV now.) She was very excited to help and even more excited that she got to stand on the kitchen step stool while she did it. Big thanks go out to Daddy for doing most of the pumpkin-carving grunt work this year!
(Not sure why she told me that she was going to be a cat at first. And she has been telling us for weeks that Daddy should be a chicken and Mommy should be a duck. No idea where that came from. Oh, and she does like candy, don't let her fool you. She had some for the first time yesterday and, let me tell ya, the girl took those Smarties to the face.)
Joe slept through most of the event, but woke up just in time to check out the finished product. (That face either says "I'm not really awake yet" or "Why did you just sit me down on a bunch of seeds?")
Have a safe and happy Halloween tomorrow!
