Halloween Costumes

I know it's 3 months away but has anyone put any thought into costumes yet?!?

PBK recently released their costumes and I was kind of disappointed for Sophie's size.

My mom sent me this website - Wishcraft Costumes by Chasing Fireflies - and they have SO MUCH STUFF.

I can't decide if we're going to dress up as a family (I wanted to go as Pandas, like Bethenny in "Bethenny Ever After" wanted to) haha, but I really can't think of any more ideas for all three of us to dress up. DH said he would go along with anything!

I also had an idea of DH & I dressing up as circus trainers and Sophie be something like an Elephant or a Lion, but the only costume I could find for a girl was kind of skanky....and I don't feel comfortable wearing something like that since 1. It's more of a family night and 2. It's going to be cold here then!

Hopefully one day I will learn to sew so I can make her costumes which is way cooler IMO

I bought two for Kaitlyn on clearance last year becuse I knew what size she would need but this year I will have to buy or make Kaileigh's.

I love this site for costumes and this is the one I will order IF I buy one. Im thinking about trying to make my own poodle one.

OMG... I'm just trying to get Ethan's b-day party planned! He will be 3 on Sept 30th, but his party will be on Sept 24th. He wants a pirate b-day party with cupcakes.

Guess I ought to think about Halloween before the very.last.second so that at least Ethan has a costume.

OMG I love that Shannon! My mom said the pink poodle is her favorite costume!

When G was 2 she was a bee and Seth and I were bees keepers...LOL

I have no idea what C will be this year. I will ask G what she wants to he and match C's costume too it. Like last year G was Cinderella and C was her pumpkin...lol.

I've been thinkjing about it since last halloween. lol

I want to do a sock monkey costume for her. I searched all over the place last year for one and couldn't find it. Thought I'd make it this year, but have no idea where to start and won't be doing it if we're still in moving limbo.

I also want to do her up as Agnes or a minion from Despicable Me. All I need to do is buy DH a trench coat and he's the spitting image of Gru. Then they can go out together. Again, the minion costumes I saw online last year looked like crap. I think I could make them better, but til moving and DH's job situation is more settled, I don't know what to do.
