The Park and The Pumpkin

After Jed got home from work yesterday we took a family trip to the park.   Gwen and Evan ran around chasing each other and Seth got in the swing for the first time.  It was so nice to be outside and not sweat. 


Evan "hiding" behind a tree from us and Gwen. 
Jed, Seth and Gwen taking a break while Evan and I ran over to the slide. 
Seth's first time in the swing, he wasnt sure what to think of it. 
Later that night we decided to carve our pumpkin.  We thought it would be a lot of fun to clean out the pumpkin with Evan, surely he would love to reach in and grab seeds and slime.  Oh, we were so wrong!  As soon as I put his had inside the pumpkin he started screaming.  I dont know if he was scared, disgusted or if it was just too cold but I do know that he hated every second of it.   He was in a horrible mood the rest of the night and wouldnt go near the pumpkin.  Here's a picture right before the meltdown.
After Evan went to bed, Seth was playing on his belly in the livingroom and he started lifting himself up onto his hands and knees.   He cant figure out how to move his hands once he gets up so he falls back on his tummy pretty quick but its the first sign that crawling isnt too far away.   I'm guessing he'll be crawling in the next 2-3 weeks.
