My Favorite lil Pumpkin!

Yesterday, we joined our friends, the Paices, Kimballs & Fonokalafis in the fun tradition of carving pumpkins! I couldn't resist the opportunity to put David in his cute Pumpkin outfit, since we weren't sure if we'd have the chance to see our friends on Halloween. Yes, I'm a dorky mom, but you know you can't resist a baby in a pumpkin outfit! Plus, my mom got it on sale last year when she found out she was going to be a grandma! hehe

Jamin did the majority of cleaning out the goopy pumpkin guts & I carved a simple pattern of bats. We have another pumpkin that we may carve into later this week, we haven't decided yet. Ashley's huge pumpkin is a big scary tree & Tammy took on the challenge of a great spider web! Lots of fun!

In other, equally exciting news, David turned four months on Friday! He had his well-baby check up today, including another round of immunizations. He now weighs 16 lbs., 1 oz. & is 26" long! Big boy! But he's proportionate & growing at a normal rate, so we're happy. The Dr. even commented on what an easy-going guy he is. He was just all smiles for her! -he usually is, for anyone checking him out in just his diaper! lol! It's funny, but any time I change his diaper (or anyone, for that matter), he just gets all chatty & smiley. Little flirt!

David hasn't quite gotten to rolling over yet (it's a lot of baby to move!), but he sure enjoys trying to sit up. He sits fine by himself for a short while, then his head gets heavy & he tips over. So Mom or Dad are always right there. He also has discovered his feet in the past month & loves trying to put them in his mouth & tug on his toes.
