Pumpkin time!

The Halloween festivities for 2009 have begun! Below are miniature pumpkins from Steph and Adam's pumpkin patch. Stephanie gave me the idea to write the letters from Layla's name on them. They turned out pretty cute!!

Tomorrow we will enter Layla's pumpkin into the local pumpkin festival. Last year we had this project done at least a week and a half ahead of time...this year, not so much!! Any guess on what Layla is making with her pumpkin? It will match her Halloween costume tomorrow night :-)
Below is a picture of Layla and her pumpkin NOW and THEN

Layla loved painting her pumpkin this year. She got very into it and as you can see on the right, she liked a lot of paint :-)

More painting...

Below is Layla "painting" her pumpkin last year. Look at my little baby here!!!
I tried to sneak a headband on her tonight...didn't go well. This is the only headband picture!

Last year Layla rocked the headband, but she wasn't so into the painting! It was fun to actually have her participate in the project, but oh I just could squeeze those little cheeks below :-)
And here is Layla and her momma. Ryan and I had fun doing this little art project with Layla tonight. I just cannot believe this is already her second Halloween....time is flying by way too fast.
