Craving the Pumpkin

I don't remember ever having a pumpkin craved with me as a child.. I think I enjoy watching baba and Miss Diva craving pumpkins together... Quality time together. She really didn't think so!

                                                       Drawing the face on the pumpkin.

                                                        first the mouth, the the nose..

                            eyes and we are done with the face...next, it was to to start craving.......

 she wasn't impressed when baba opened the lid to the pumpkin...to messy, she kept saying

 she kept running away from it and saying no, I'm not doing it! when we would ask her to put her hand inside.

 finally.. with lots of coaxing and promises of smarties, she finally but her hand in there...but not for long...it was luck that I caught her hand inside the pumpkin...silly girl

                                       look mama...I found seeds....as she flicks them on the floor

               she kept saying all night "happy pumpkin".....she was happy when it was done!

Her 1st time......

                                  licking the beaters from making vanilla pudding with momma.She thought it was wonderful and it tasted wonderful.

Daycare friends

Miss diva and 2 of her daycare friends......aren't they just the cutest little things ever!

Halloween preparations

As a child growing up, I loved halloween. My fondest memory is about me and my friend Rhonda dressing up a Jem and the Halograms(I think I mispelled this). I loved the treats but I remember the smell of the candies and other stuff together in my bag.....ummm candy. I love this season.

 Miss diva is painting a sign for the door. Did I ever mention how much she loves doing crafts and reading stories. Well, she loves doing both and I love doing them with her.

                                                finished product! Dosen't it look awesome

 She was building with blocks, I love watching her play. I love to watch how she manipulates her toy and creates things

Fall

 I love fall, the beautiful colours , the cooler temps and the smells of fall. Miss Diva loves crafts and when I told her that we were going to go and collect leaves and paint with them, she was excited.

 painting the back of the leaves with paint and pressing them unto paper. She thought this was pretty neat.

Great job!
