Can you believe it's right around the corner?? Have you been thinking about it yet??

What is your LO going to be?

We haven't planned a costume for Caleb yet, because I'm afraid he'll change his mind at the last second. He talks about it all the time and usually says he wants to be a cowboy or an "army guy". I might just have to wait til the last minute with him! I just bought Ella a butterfly costume from the Children's Place last week!

Marcus is going to be Frankenstein thanks to you and Holden, Jenny! He was so cute last year that I decided I had to have Marcus be one this year, haha. Jamesen will be a turtle if I can find a cute one...

Xander is going to be Iron Man (boooo-ring....). His choice, obviously.

Shayla is going to be a pink unicorn.

Allison picked out a costume about a week ago. She wanted tinkerbell so that is what we got! i must admit though she looks adorable in it! the wings light up and everything.

Dominic is planning on being Buzz and Alex has an obsession with Woodie so that's the plan for now. I'm not sure if I can find a Woodie costume in Alex's size though. Most are size 3 and up.

Kami doesn't seem to have a real preference, she just wants to wear mommy shoes, as she calls them, with some sort of princess dress. Breaks my heart, because with her balance she can't wear those play heels, she trips too much.
I think she will be Cinderella or Snow White. I'm sort of hoping for Snow White, because I have a costume too and we can match

I think I'm ordering Aiden a Yoda costume.

Hey Angelica -
I'm not sure what size Alex wears, but....
Here's a Woody costume in 12-24 months Woody Costume - Infant/Toddler : Target

Jack picked his costume last week, it's a dinosaur. He says it's an alligator though.

Hopefully I won't find something cooler once all the stores put their costumes out.

I haven't asked Holden what he WANTS to be.. I fear what he might say

I want the boys to be thing 1 & thing 2.. not sure how realistic those costumes are though lol. Mostly for the wigs and how Parker refuses to wear things on his head

Thanks Tiffany! That's exactly the size we need but we don't have Targets in Canada (and I just looked at their site - they don't ship here either

). Good to know though that they come in smaller sizes - I'll just keep searching.

Do you have Shoppers drug mart? I saw it there today.

A costume catalog came to our house a few weeks ago and Abby will sit still and flip through it over and over. She wants to be a Disney princess but she cannot decide which one. I want her to be Belle. She was Snow White last year and she still ask to wear the dress all the time so I don't think I will mind buying two different ones if she can't decide. The princess outfits in that catalog are only 20 dollars or so but they aren't the best looking either. Even the ones at the Disney store are cheesy, I'm still looking.

Ethan is going to be Batman and Aiden is going to be superman. I wanted to do Batman and Robin and I still might if I can find a Robin costume to fit Aiden.

Easton wants to be a pirate. He's been running around the house saying "Arggg trick or treat argggg!"

AmyT · #17 September 19th, 2010, 11:53 AM

Angelica...I saw a woody costume in infant sizes at wal-mart last night...so hopefully they will have them there for you too???

Allison is going to be Cinderella

I found an AWESOME cinderella dress, real shoes and crown that fit her perfectly at a yard sale this summer...Only $2!!!!

I bought a bunch of costumes last year after halloween for the kids for their dress up box here at home (only paid $1-3 each) and I found 2 different ones (that haven't been opened yet) for spencer that he could be this year. Either Luigi (which he LOVES) or Captain America (superhero). I also found an upopened wonderwoman costume for Allie...so if we can find a carnival or something to take them to, we will do the superheros there, and then do the cinderella/luigi for halloween night

i've retired the idea of thing 1 & thing 2. i'm exhausted and I haven't even thrown the birthday party yet!

I let Holden look through a whole website of costumes and he decided he wants to be a "knight of the dragon".. which of course means Parker is going to be a dragon

proudjmmom · #19 September 22nd, 2010, 03:43 PM

I am making their costumes this year. Jorja is being Dorothy from Wizard of Oz, and my foster daughter is being the witch. I am trying to convince my son to be the tin man or scarecrow.
