Today Mom had the greatest idea! She decided to cut open a pumpkin, hollow it out, then cut shapes out of it to make it look like it had a smiling face. She put a candle inside to make it light up in the dark, and called it Jack-o-lantern. Isn't she the most clever, creative and fun mommy? I bet as soon as I blog this I will start seeing Jack-o-lanterns all over the place from copy cats. And I can brag that my Mom came up with the idea! What? Really? Well, I've never seen them before. Well, it was fun anyway! I loved spooning out the slimy guts, squooshing them around in the bowl and pretending to eat them. I especially enjoyed this because it made Jacob gag...a lot! I'm not sure how stoked Jacob was about most of it, but once he got the "poker" he was in hog heaven! You all know how Jacob loves a good weapon. But Mommy was very diligent in making sure he was safely poking holes only in the pumpkin and not in any of us! Our Jack turned out grand! And Mommy got some good pictures (which, let's face it, was probably the main point of this whole activity.)
Gotta run,
Noah
