Yes, we have already started celebrating Halloween. That happens when you have a little one in preschool. Since I have to dress Madison up anyway, I threw Will’s costume on too.
This would win any 2 and under cutest costume contest, right? I love this costume. It does come with a cute little hat. However, no matter how hard I try, he won’t keep it on. Madison came home already with an entire bag of candy from preschool. She’s already figured out how to sneak some of it already too! They trick or treated in her preschool building. Plus, all of us parent brought candy too! I do feel the need to smack the parents that brought pure sugar candy. Trust me, Madison does not need sugar to bounce off walls. You can only imagine how she is with sugar.
Madison would win for cutest costume 3 and up, don’t you think? I love this costume. It sucks that I caught the window glare in her glasses, but she looks super cute in her Cinderella costume. It is suppose to be in the high sixties tomorrow, so we shouldn’t have to wear our coats out trick or treating. We then are meeting at my sister-in-laws and going trick or treating by her house. We also have a Halloween party on Saturday. We have quite a busy couple of days just to celebrate Halloween!
Though I’d have to say that the best photo I took so far, I took at her preschool today:
She looks so excited and happy! What are you doing for Halloween?

Bill just called home to let me know he is coming home early. Since we haven’t had a chance yet to get pumpkins, we are going to go grab some tonight. I know that Madison is going to be super excited. She has been asking for a week when we can carve some pumpkins.

I was trying Will’s Halloween costume on him yesterday (as you can see in these pictures). It made me realize that he’s not a baby anymore. He is 16 months now and pretty mobile now. He runs (not walks), can climb the stairs, and talks a little too. It is hard to believe that I have to put away his baby clothes and pull out a bunch of 2T items to get him through the winter. It is a bittersweet moment here. I want him to grow up and be more independent, but I miss my little baby too.

It is hard to believe that Halloween is a little over a month away, and it is time to start looking at Halloween Costume Stores again. I remember rushing around last minute last year trying to find a superman costume for Will (As you can see, I did find one!). This year I am not quite sure what we are making the kids. I did find some Handy Manny costumes in Will’s size, so we may go with that. Madison changes her mind from day to day what she wants to be. Right now, she wants to be a fairy with wings or a princess. This is very surprising for my house due to the fact she is soooo not a girly girl. However, she is old enough to decide what she does and does not want to be for Halloween. She could be asking for much worse, so I am happy with a fairy or a princess. I think we are leaning towards a princess since last year she was supergirl, the year before that she was Tinkerbell, and the year before that she was a flower.
How do you decide what your kids are going to be for Halloween?
