Pumpkin Time

Every year we carve pumpkins. Jared Loves to do it. I think more than I do. He is pretty good. It's fun to see Leila get excited.

She was way excited to help carve the pumpkins and find all the seeds to bake. 

I always get stuck with the gutting.

She was so happy to help.

Yummy roasted pumpkin seeds.

Leila was so excited to try the seeds, she couldn't wait.

I was not sure what she was going to think... She LOVED them. Just like her dad. She couldn't stop eating them.

I had to show her how the seed was inside and not to eat the shell. She was eating the whole thing. Carving pumpkins was fun! I hope Conrad can stay awake next year. 

For those of you that don't know, Conrad loves to sleep. He takes 1 nap a day, anywhere from 1-2 hrs and goes down for the night around 6:00 - 7:00 pm (This is why he is never in any pictures or family fun). He wakes up at 7:30 or 8:00. And YES, he sleeps all night. Everyone always said every kid is different and that I wouldn't get another good sleeper. But my babies LOVE their sleep.
