Pumpkin Carving




Pumpkin carving and roasted pumpkin seeds
 
Mmm Mmm Mmm.
 
 
 
 
 
 
I accidentally burnt the seeds this year
 
but the jack-o-lanterns turned out fine!
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
It's weird to carve pumpkins while wearing t-shirts.
 
I'm still adjusting to this mild climate.
 

 





 
 

Mommy's owl
Daddy's scary scream face
 
 
Sara's first jack-o-lantern
 
 
 
Mommy carved Sara's pumpkin.
 
It was first going to be a ghost - oops.
 
Then it was going to be the Wisconsin logo - oops.
 
Finally, the jack-o-lantern was a success.
 
Mommy isn't very good at carving pumpkins.

Sara finally has her pair of chompers!
 
 
 
 
 
 


Seven Months

 
 
 
 
 
 
Sara is SO much fun.
 
She wants to get her hands on anything - and everything.
 
I can tell she wants to be walking running on her own.
 
She is rolling over quite well - even in her crib.
 
She is not crawling yet.
 
She is drooling less (could be her amber necklace).
 
She has TWO bottom teeth.
 
 
 
 
She loves...
 
her exersaucer
 
her sleep
 
her sissy
 
her mommy & daddy (of course)
 
reading a book
 
bath time
 
and anything she can put in her mouth.
 
 
 
 
 
She does not love...
 
peas
 
teething
 
runny noses
 
and cuddling (sigh).
 
 
 
 







 
 
 
Love you baby girl!

Sara Standing






 
 
 
 


Six Months

 
 
 
 
Six months old!
 
 
 
 
 
 
At six months, Sara is...
 
grabbing her feet
 
drooling a lot
 
putting everything in her mouth
 
sitting unassisted
 
standing with help
 
laying on her side
 
sleeping through the night
(most nights)
 
smiling
 
"talking"
 
waving
 
laughing
(big belly giggles)
 
jumping in her jumper
 
spashing at bath time
 
watching TV
(Brian Williams is her favorite)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Sara loves...
Sissy (Lucy)
 
the TV
 
sleeping
 
going for walks
 
standing
(she wants to walk badly)
 
swimming in her bath tub
 
Mr Lion
 
Smiling at...
daddy
mommy
sissy
grandma
grandpa
kandi
mason
(everyone she sees)
