Pumpkin Carving

We decided this year that we were going to start carving a pumpkin for Halloween. Joe and I both remember our parents doing this when we were kids and we thought that this would be a fun family thing to do together. Cameron was able to draw on her small pumpkin while I started on getting the top off of the pumpkin we were going to carve.


Cameron trying to help get the 'lid' off.
Once we got the lid off....

time to start taking the seeds and stuff out.



Cameron told me that it was eww and slimy and wouldn't touch it but a couple of times with her hand.  She didn't mind using the utensil but soon didn't want to do it at all.

Then dad comes in and does the outline of our face and carves the pumpkin.


 Cameron thought it was neat!
And now the final product.....

 We won't be lightening it again until Halloween night, but thought it looked pretty good for our first carved pumpkin!

The Nursery

Well we have finished painting and putting up our Classic Winnie - the -Pooh border up in our soon to be nursery! Joe and I had a fun time doing this project together! We enjoy spending time together as it is and being able to do the nursery together just made having little Cameron that much more special! We had always liked the idea of having a yellow room with a Pooh border but decided to go a different way. Once we found the border we liked the best, Classic Pooh, we decided to go with a green. Keeping it neutral so that if and when we have another baby we won't have to redo the nursery. It was fun picking out the shade of green that we liked best with the border, and once we did and painted we were very pleased with the outcome. And now with the border finally up we think that our nursery looks good!

Our First Baby!

Hello to all! This is my very first blog and I am excited to keep family and friends in the loop about what is happening in our lives! As most of you know we are 13 weeks pregnant! Joe and I went to the doctors last Wednesday for our 12 week check up. It was so exciting to see the baby named Camical for now.! We were able to see the baby move, well jerk, open and close their mouth and move their arms! We spent great quality time with the baby to get certain measurements. We have 4 other pictures but this was the best one where you can really see Camical!
