Pumpkin Painting

Apparently fingerpainting pumpkins is all the new rage these days. Giving a child sharp tools to carve their pumpkin is frowned upon. Who knew?

Totally kidding. I knew. No pumpkins were carved by any toddler at our house.

Or by any grown up for that matter. I totally forgot to get us a pumpkin.

Ahh, mommy brain.



So that leaves us with paint. Lots and lots of paint. 

Thank goodness for Crayola WASHABLE paint.

As you can tell, Escher had his animal friends help out. Nothing like having paint covered dolphin, giraffe, and Elephant. The bathtub is going to be crowded tonight!

Here you can tell that Escher is carefully applying each color to the pumpkin. Such talent!

Escher thinks that my jeans might be more styling with painted toddler hand prints on them. What do you think? 

Sandy girl, our neighbor's pup, is just thankful that she hasn't been fingerpainted as well!

And the finished product. ProductS if you consider the table a work of art too.

I actually think his paint blob looks pretty cool. But that's probably because I have mommy goggles on. And the paint is washable.

Hope everyone has a safe and happy Halloween!
