For school Wednesday afternoon, the activity was pumpkin carving. The subjects? Science (we were dealing with a pumpkin after all; there has to be some science to that), art (we were expressing our creativity), math (we counted the seeds by fives and tens), and home economics (we roasted the seeds). Did I miss anything?
Our babysitter, Kim, didn’t have school that day and was able to join us.
Based on a book we read about pumpkins, we guessed that Miss Kim’s pumpkin had more seeds. (It was darker and had more lines, therefore we suspected it had spent more time on the vine.) The result?
Our pumpkin: 578 seeds
Miss Kim’s pumpkin: 398 seeds
I guess we were wrong. That was certainly a lot of practice counting!

I’d like to introduce a guest blogger today. Her name is Kayla Kerr, and she is five-years-old. She wants to tell you a story:
Mommy bought some caramel apples. I was eating one of them, and I lost my tooth! We looked for it, but we didn’t find it. We think I swallowed it.
Here’s a picture before Kayla lost her tooth. I had no idea she was going to lose it; I just took a picture because the girls had never had caramel apples before.
However, a few bites into the apple, I said, “Kayla, you might lose your tooth eating that!” She said, “no,” but then I looked and saw the tooth was already missing. We searched the caramel coating but found only peanuts.

I spent a bit of time working on these photos tonight, so I’ll just have to let the captions tell the story. Maybe I will write more soon, but for now, enjoy!
