The Great Pumpkin Caper

We had purchased three pumpkins earlier in October, before we knew that Nico was going to join us early. So we added a fourth pumpkin to complete our family:



Close up of Nico's pumpkin (extra-tiny, of course):

On Monday, we realized Nico's pumpkin was gone. I kept searching for it every time I went outside, thinking it was too large for a rodent to completely drag away (without help from his furry friends).
Turns out, our hunch about a rodent was right. I caught this little bugger chomping on our neighbor's jack-o-lantern yesterday:

Blurry close up of the squirrel (He's practically hugging the damn thing!):
Thankfully, we had our own little Nico pumpkin safe and sound indoors:

and Pumpkin Feet
I hope everyone had a safe and Happy Halloween!

g'ma is back so here is my comment. Little Nico is the most precious addition to the family, and that is a fact. Also she is already going along with all different celebrations including her first Halloween "disguise", HUM! Can't wait the Thanksgiving and Xmas! Love every moment and every picture coming along.
