This is my middle child's pumpkin, I don't really like putting my kid's names on the internet.  So I will just call my son the my middle child.

Love it! Good times.

You could use an initial or nicknames for your kids if you want. My sons are the "Dawgs"--C-Dawg, B-Dawg, and T-Dawg. Of course, your way works too!

Nice photos! I don't blame you about putting kids names on the internet.
lynn a. Oct 22, 2008, 10:45am EDT
Nice photo essay. This is one of the thrills we get as children, and even as adults. Fun to see your family carving the pumpkins. My daughter is grown now and married, so we don't have a child to do this with unless my nephew comes over.
☃ Aunt Shanny Oct 22, 2008, 10:49am EDT
I used to LOVE carving pumpkins! Now I can't sit bent over long enough to do one :(

Of the finished ones, my fave is the first. Those eyes are great!
