Pumpkin carving for real

After our practice run, Liam got to carve his pumpkin for real this time. We had a neighborhood pumpkin carving party yesterday afternoon. We decided to carve Liam's at home since we didn't think his attention span would last long enough at the party.

Here are some pics and a video from the day.

Liam loves cats at the moment. Here he is eating his M&Ms like a cat. Complete with meows.

Liam's favorite thing at the party was our neighbor's dancing pirate. He was fascinated by it and loved dancing with it.

Pumpkin carving

It's pumpkin time again! Liam helped me clean our first pumpkin of the season for some stir-fried pumpkin (http://allrecipes.com/recipe/stir-fried-pumpkin/detail.aspx)

Liam used to love stir fried pumpkin when we was a year old. Now he won't touch it.

Here are some pictures of my little helper.

The Book of Me

Liam brought this home today from play school. His answers are in quotation marks.

Sand and water

 We are in another phase where we look at pictures of Liam and we can see that he looks different. We knew he was growing again lately. We can really see it here!

We finally got Liam's sand box going. The digger was a big hit!!

Here are some cute pictures from bath time tonight. Liam is not afraid to get his face or head wet. Probably time for some swimming lessons!

Liam used his lungs

The theme in Liam's play school class this week is the body. Liam brought home this balloon today and for some reason I found it very cute. His teacher told us Liam insisted on blowing up the balloon by himself. She didn't think he would do it but he actually did. Liam used his lungs!! :-)

The Chipmunks

Here is Liam's playschool picture for the Autumn. Here are the Chipmunks!! (I am not sure what is off with our scanner but I can't seem to get it straight and avoid the extra space on the right.)

Kopfschmerzen

Liam has learned some simple treatments for everyday injuries. In his mind anything that hurts can be fixed with the rice sock or a Band-aid. On Thursday Tobias had a migraine. When Liam heard that Papi had a headache he jumped up and said, 'Papi braucht ein Pflaster.'  (Papi needs a Band-aid.) Here is a picture of Papi with his Pflaster.

Liam also loves visiting Ms. Bella's house and seeing the cats. One of the cats is injured. When Liam was going to bed tonight he told Tobias that Ms. Bella's cat was hurt and needed a Band-aid. :-)
