The Babe has become a big Halloween fan. She can spot a “punkin” from a mile away. She also picked up the phrase “Ooh! Spooky!” and uses it appropriately. When it came time to pick her costume, I thought Jasmine would be fun, but she had eyes only for “Rella.” So Cinderella it was!
Lil’ Miss has known for quite awhile that she had to be Rapunzel for Halloween. I struggled with how best to make the Rapunzel dress. Here’s my interpretation:
Lil’ T and I had this conversation about his costume:
Lil’ T: Mom, I want to be someone from Harry Potter. One of the bad guys.
Me: Oh, you could be Draco!
Lil’ T: No, I want to be Malfoy.
Big T: You’re both talking about the same person!
Good thing Big T is here to keep us straight!
After Lil’ T decided to be Malfoy, Big T was willing to be Harry Potter, the boy who lived! (I have always wanted to make a Harry Potter costume, what a treat to be able to make 2 characters from the series!)
We went trick-or-treating twice this year. Once at Lincoln’s work (so fun, we’ll have to do it again!) and then around the neighborhood. Why is it always the kids who tire out first? Oh well, less candy control later, right?
