What are your plans for Halloween? Are you taking them trick or treating?

What is your toddler going to be?




I am still at a lost on what London is going to be. I know I have time, but normally I would have some idea by now. Caden wants to be Luigi (from the Mario brothers) ..ha ha...I'm not sure about that one... We do plan on taking them trick or treating on Halloween. I also plan on taking them to the pumpkin patch and a couple of fall festivals throughout the month of October.

We'll take her trick or treating, to a pumpkin patch/corn maze. After we are done trick or treating, I'm going to try to keep her up later so she can help me pass out candy.

I have her costume -- she's going to be a witch

Definitely no trick-or-treating. I am attempting to give Juliana no junk food before the age of 3. Our neighborhood has a Halloween party that's not actually on Halloween day. I'm not sure yet what we'll do on Halloween day. Maybe just dress up and hand out candy to kids.

No trick-or-treating here either, we are also trying to avoid sweets for as long as possible.

There is a pumpkin festival here and we will be dressing her up...also as a witch!

Definately trick or treating here!! My kids have always been hardcore trick or treaters! Julia even kept up with the big kids (my nieces and twins) even when she was only 2 years old. They go for hours! Julia is going to be a princess and we already have her costume but I do not know what Ty will be. Ty will only trick or treat in our neighborhood and then stay home with dh while I take Julia to the larger neighborhood behind us.

Ty is not allowed candy, so any candy he gets goes into our famiy candy bowl Julia gets whatever candy she likes out of her haul, and what she doesnt like goes into the bowl. I am not a big candy eater, but dh and Amber are. Nicole is ADHD and has never gotten her candy. When she was young, we took her candy she got and gave her sugar free candy for it instead.

We have a harvest party at our church so I don't know about trick or treating. We will probably go because our older son will want to but any candy Aidyen gets he will nor be allowed to eat. I think that Aidyen is going to be a little monster

Ali might get one or two pieces (I'm a bad mama) but that's it, we will eat the rest for her. She will be going to whatever halloween thing the housing people plan, I dunno how it will work yet. She's going to be a zookeeper.

We will be trick-or-treating with my niece in their neighborhood. She will not be getting any candy, but mommy and daddy might steal some. The rest I will bring to school w/ me and keep in the reward jar.

She will either be a sock monkey or Agnes from Despicable Me.

I found a really cute Minnie Mouse costume for Avery, but I'm not sure she'll keep the ears on.

Ethan changes his mind every other day about what he wants to be. Right now my money is on Buzz Lightyear.

There's also a dress-up Halloween event that we'll go to; the County Parks & Recreation program holds it. Our nanny is taking her daughter, so I'm going to take the morning off work & take Ethan & Avery. We'll go trick or treating a little bit in the neighborhood. Our neighbors have a little girl & she & Ethan are BFFs, so he wants to go with her. Avery might get a tiny bit of candy. Ethan has already given her an M&M or two (he thought he was being nice by sharing his potty reward with her). Girlfriend loves veggies, so I'm not going to stress about an M&M on Halloween.

The wonderful things BIG brothers do!!! Caden gave London a cheeto at 3 months old. She didn't know what to do with it, but she had it hanging out her mouth looking like a cigarette! lol

I think that's awesome. Maggie will probably get a candy or two also. I completely understand why you wouldn't want to give them treats until later on, but I just can't resist it, and well...life is short no matter how clean you live.

That's awesome about Ethan and Caden. Makes me wish I had an older brother...lol

We might go to this little local festival or to the mall...they do a cute little trick or treating type thing. Leah's probably going to be a little bumble bee I might let her lick a couple pieces of candy...we're not too hardcore about no sweets. We like to do everything in moderation...
