I just ordered one from wholesalehaloweencostumes.com and googled for a 15% off code. Came out to 27 and change before shipping. It's back ordered until October 3rd but that's fine.

DD1 wants to be a vampire. She decided the day after Halloween last year. She has not wavered at all (she decided on last year's costume a year in advance too). DS wants to be a Power Ranger which is awesome because we already have a costume. I'd guess the little girls will both want to be Elsa, but we only have one costume. I need to convince someone to be Anna.
My H thinks I'm ridiculous because I told him last week that this year I want N to be something cuddly and cute this year, and next year be Harry Potter before he starts insisting on his own costumes. I've obviously put way too much thought into this!
I've been thinking either a fireman or a train conductor for this year.
This is our thinking too. DS is currently obsessed with both. OH OH, or a construction worker. That would be easy. Hard hat, reflective vest, boots. Done.
I would like to dress up as Josephine this year. Since neither DD nor DH are interested in rounding out my costume, I have decided that the baby, whether it's a boy or a girl, will be Napoleon. The idea of this completely cracks me up, but we'll see how well I can execute it...
If all else fails, I still have a 6-month-sized cow costume that DD wore for her first Halloween.
I believe we are doing Pirate family this year. Last years Super Hero family was so fun, we may be doing family themes every year...it's pricey though!

I have no idea what DS is going to be. Last year he was a monkey because I bought the costume while pregnant for like $4. It is hard here because on 10/31 it could still be 90 degrees, or it could be 40. He loves Elmo but the costumes I've seen look so warm.

DD will be Elsa, DS will be Olaf. It's probably the last year we can do a combo costume. If she wasn't so adamant about being Elsa, we'd probably do Beauty & The Beast since I saw an adorable Beast costume in a resale group.
X was a skeleton last year. I would like to get one of the plush Carter's costumes for him this year. They had a monster one last year that was really cute and an elephant.
I want to dress him up and take a quick stroll around the neighborhood. I doubt we'll do anything major as I'm due Oct. 20, so we're going to have a fresh baby come Halloween.
Too funny. I bought both of these last year for DS. I still have them if you're interested. The elephant in 6-9 months and the monster in 12 months (the monster still has the tags on it .
