Halloween

[melis74]

Speaking of choices...

How many of you are dressing up the babes for Halloween and what will they be? M's daycare has a little "party" and they take pictures of the infants dressed up. I have found some super cute costumes at Spirit: www.spirithalloween.com/baby-costumes/ I think I'm leaning towards the Baby Blossom.

Ooh I started looking last night. So far I'm thinking sock monkey!

Too cute!! That place has even more choices for me to look at, oye!

What kind of outfit for a 3-4 week old newborn? Any ideas?

I think Luis wants to do Thing 1 and Thing 2, he wants to be Cat in the Hat, and apparently, I will be a pair of legs (since that is all you see of the mom in the book, I believe.)

So original!

Moonie, Baby S should be this: www.spirithalloween.com/product/pea-in-a-pod-buntg-inf-0-6m/

Baby costumes are so cute. And Sara, that sock monkey is adorable! Beckett's first Halloween, he was a hot dog. With mustard. It was so stinking cute.

No idea what the kids will be this year.

I have that pea costume!! I was going to sell it on EBay! A Needs her legs free to pretend she's a grown up now so its no bueno for her.

I like this for a newborn but I couldn't do $30 for a newborn onsie. If I could though... Love a lot Bear is adorable!

T was a Piece of Sushi. I haven't thought about this year yet.

I think I am going to make Lila a Kitty costume this year. She is more than a little obsessed with Kitties.

This is what I made her last year:

Yes, it is! I had it custom made from a darker color at Lowes.

The color changes so much between photos.

This one is probably the closest. Its similar to a tiffany blue, I guess.

I haven't decided yet. I kind of wanted to coordinate the kids but I can't find anything I like in the right sizes.

I'm so excited to dress B up!! He will be 5 months old. I'm thinking maybe this baby alligator costume because H and I are huge Florida fans..

Little Halloween costumes are so cute...I love the pea bunting. I already miss the days of costume choosing. But FYI, those costumes were not made for FL, when it could very well still be in the 80s in late October. Q was Chewbacca his first Halloween and he was one sweaty Wookie. If you're going to be inside most of the time, they'll be fine.

I think I'd like to do Wizard of Oz the girls more than anything else. Can't be that hard. (Sez I. I'm pretty sure I won't have anything ready by the 30th, lol.) My friends suggested they be Glinda and Elphaba. Might be cute

I think I would be the Tin Man and Luis can be the lion. We would be so adorbable!

Lol @ "one sweaty wookie."

There are quite a few bunting costumes out there, some are cute and some are...well, questionable?! i.e. a whoopie cushion, a piece of bacon, a ketchup packet

Thank you. :heart: It felt like it took forever to complete it but I was so happy with how it turned out.

I agree with Kim that it can be extremely hot at Halloween. Last year Lila was pretty sweaty in her costume, but she was the only one who was not eaten alive by the mosquitoes in Land O Lakes. I do remember Halloweens where it has been freezing cold though.
