Pumpkin Carving!

This past weekend Ellis and I decided to carve a pumpkin for Halloween. I went online and found some free Disney Princess guides for carving and we decided to do Cinderella. Ellis was totally game until we had to start pulling out the guts of the pumpkin - then she didn't want to touch the stuff because it made her hands dirty (she is so funny). Anyway, after an hour and half of carving I finally finished the pumpkin - the guide was a LOT harder than I thought it would be. But she loves it and every night we go outside and light it and she calls it her "Cinderwella".

Ellis and I with our matching aprons from Sara Miller *thanks again!*


My big helper before the going got tough. She was very excited for this.


"Carving" her own pumpkin in the guts that I pulled out by myself because it was too "gross" for her.

The finished product.



Notice the lack of clothes - she kept taking off her shirt and just wanting to wear the apron. My little exhibitionist...



And all lit up!
Happy Halloween!!!

You are quite the go-getter! I, like Ellis don't like to touch that goop either! That's a job for Jimmy. :)

I'm glad the aprons worked out. You guys are adorable.

Looking forward to a "baby stella" post soon! :) Hope you're feelin' ok!
