Poll: Halloween 2014 Costumes

[Ashley&Scott]

What are MMM kids going to be for Halloween this year?

Are you and/or your DH dressing up too?

[nonsenseabound]

I'm not dressing up.

DD is going as Belle. We bought a nice handmade Belle dress for our trip to Disney and she is willing to use it again. Thank goodness.

DS is going as a minion and is weirdly excited about it. At least it's a cheap and easy costume!

[Deleted]

I am not dressing up. DS is going as Mickey Mouse.

[babyrn]

DD will be an 80s aerobics instructor.

DH and I are not dressing up

[countthestars]

I think DD will be a puppy but I'm not sure yet. I won't be dressing up!

[caramia17]

Caramini wants to be an owl. I will not be dressing up.

[karinothing]

DS has been going between a DR and a Kitty. Maybe Dr. Kitty?

[lilybug]

DS1 wants to be a spider. Easy enough.

He wants DS2 to be a fly. I'm not sure how I'll pull that one off. We might end up having two little spiders.

[Velar Fricative]

I have no idea yet. I thought maybe a bunny for DD since instead of wanting to walk with me, she likes to hop instead.

[madringal]

DH and I will not be dressing up. My kids will be one of a billion Elsa and Anna's.

[hocus2]

No dressing up for me or DH

My daughter wants to be hello kitty. Most "customs" for HK are kind of sexy looking IMO. I getting her some regular HK stuff and a crown.

Not sure about my son. He has a dress up party this weekend so maybe he'll reuse that costume. I know he wants to be Elsa but I'm not sure I'm down with that.

[ssmjlm]

E will be a bumblebee. The dog will also be a bumblebee.

We don't dress up.

[Ashley&Scott]

M is going to be a train engine driver:

Thank you Osh Kosh for being affordable!

Hat: $10


Overalls: $10


Shirt: (red or navy?) $8



Not sure yet if DH & I will dress up or not, if we do we'll try to do something that matches an engine driver. We've also talked about making M some sort of prop, like this:

[Brie]

C is going to be an octopus.

I have one of those skeleton maternity shirts. We may also wear yellow ponchos and carry a fish net to take him ToTing and be sea captains.

[hermione]

C will be a strawberry. We are not dressing up.

Why not? I dressed up as Peter Pan and Pee Wee Herman as a kid.

My daughter comes up with a new idea everyday. We will try to plan a family costume for the neighborhood Halloween party, but I probably won't dress up on Halloween. My husband is obsessed and incapable of not dressing up.

[mrslisa]

I love Halloween and we have done a theme every year. We have done zoo animals and keepers, the Flintstones, Little Bo Peep, Star Wars, the Chipmunks, and 80s toys. This year the kids really want to do Frozen. I know that there are going to be a zillion Frozen costumes but I am going to go with their choice. We are going to Disney World at the beginning of October and I already spent $$$ on outfits for the trip so I guess it is nice that they will wear the Frozen ones again for Halloween. DD1 is Elsa, DS is Christoff, DD2 is Anna, and DD3 is Olaf.

[scribellesam]

Not sure whether anyone will dress up, since we'll have a 1-3 week old in the house. If we are feeling up to it, I have a Frodo costume DS wore to Comic Con in July that he can wear, and I can slap a gray onesie and pants on the baby and call him Gollum.

[smm5623]

M asked to be a puppy. I ordered her costume and it's supposed to be delivered today. She's asked for it since we talked about it last week. I foresee lots of dressing up in the next 2 months!

C will probably just be in a skeleton sleeper since he'll be 2 months. I considered dressing him up but haven't seen anything I like that is small enough (most of what I've seen is 0-6 which will be huge on him)

[h]

DS1 says clone trooper, but I am expecting him to change his mind.
DS2 seems torn between Donatello (the ninja turtle), Rocket Raccoon (Guardians of the Galaxy), and Luigi.
Not sure about DS3.

Do you have the book Dr. Meow's Big Emergency? It is about a cat who is a doctor. My kids loved it.

[lo]

L is going to be an owl, and was also gifted a Snow White costume. She might be both or I might save one costume for Purim. Not sure what H and I will be...

[soozy87]

Z is going to be Toad. My husband wants to be Mario and for me to be Princess Peach, but I am not sure I want to dress up.

[catsarecute]

I don't think I'll dress up. DH might be working and miss it.

She will only be 6 months so I won't get too crazy with a costume. They had some Superman and Batman onesies with tutu's around them at Target. I might go for one of those!

This!

[dancingirl21]

J is going to be Robin and DH is going as batman. It's going to be freaking adorable.

I should probably dress as a tourist with the amount of picture snapping I will be doing.

[Deleted]

DS2 is going to be a lion that I found on clearance. lol. I am so bummed that DS1 can choose for himself now. I was all irritated that they talked about choosing costumes at pre school the other day, because every little kid in there wanted to be Spiderman, so of course that's all I have heard about since then. He doesn't even know who Spiderman is!

[turtlegirl]

DH and I aren't dressing up.

I haven't even asked DS1 what he wants to be. I just scored a kids football helmet of our team at a thrift store for $1, so maybe that and his jersey to be a football player.

My only other idea is to have DS2 wear the Woody costume from DS1 last year and maybe we'll get DS1 a new Buzz Lightyear costume.

[zarapipe]

I have no idea! We wont dress up. DD says cat, but keeps changing her mind. DD2 will be in a Halloween sleeper.

[cincodemayo]

I am spending too much time agonizing over this. At most, we will ToT on our street, and dress up for gma and gpa.

My H says he wants DS to be a monster. I'm leaning towards Daniel Tiger.
