We haven't came up with a costume for Keith yet. We didn't see any at walmart that we liked and I don't want to order one on the internet. So I'm trying to think of an easy costume I can make that would be way cute. I keep asking Dh what he thinks and he can't think of anything either. Anyone have any ideas?

Here is a website I don't know how much work you wanted to put into making one.

I think you should wrap him in tin foil and have him be a chipotle burrito!!

**On a side note, if you used to go in dressed as a burrito to Chipotle on halloween they would give you a free burrito. I did it with my best friend Nick, man we looked so stupid walking down the street, but free food is awesome!

We saw adorable costumes at Target. They had peas in a pod, a banana, and a chili pepper. I don't know if they were the right size for your little guy though.
For my son's first halloween, he went as Mario. Red long-sleeved shirt, blue-jean overalls and a red hat all store-bought. We took a bit of white patch, cut it in a circle and stitched a red M to it then stitched it to the cap. Here's a pic. I'm Princess Peach in this pic. A very chubby, brownish hair Peach.



Otherwise, they have some really simple patterns at the fabric store, like See 'n Sew costumes and stuff.

Just a few ideas. Hope this helps and good luck!!! We're working on our costumes this weekend as well. My DS is going as a sheep this year and I'm going as a Settler. Should be fun.

Thanks ladies. He's pretty cute no matter what we put him in though. LOL. Here's a pic from last Halloween. He's a character from a game called Katamari Damacy in this pic. And he wore that head piece pretty much the whole night. This costume was a lot more work though.

I love you as Peach and him as Mario.

It was seriously about as easy as buying a costume from Walmart, only personalized. In fact, I think I bought his shirt and overalls there. Can't remember where I found the hat though. The rest was from JoAnn Fabrics.

Anyways, I CAN'T WAIT TO POST THIS YEAR'S PICS! We need a thread on Nov. 1 just for all our cute kids in costumes!!!

Plus it's something he got to wear again! Reagan's pumpkin costume is from a friend who bought one last year for her Grandson b/c his mom just insisted that he be a pumpkin. She came to visit and Elena gave it to her, and she purposely left it there when she left!! Oh well works out for me, and she didn't end up waisting her money.

Oh we will have a costume thread! I can't wait to see all the cuties dressed up!
