This year was so much fun. The boys decided to again be totally opposite characters on the spectrum of Halloween costumes. It made us smile.
My intentions, however, of making a costume that was warm for our less than tropic weather, turned into a super hero that looked like he had too many carbs.
My 5 year old didn't notice. In fact, his cardboard claws and spandex undies made him feel pretty awesome. Tip: sew the black stripes on to the chest before you stuff with cotton.
After naming off a list of animals our sweet Julian decided on nothing less than darling for a costume: a bunny. I panicked when his mind was set. A bunny? Isn't that a girl costume?
Luckily JoAnn's had some gray fur on hand and I reminded myself of the fun we'll have looking back (i.e. blackmail). Tip: make sure to take into account the extra material for your 3 yr old's belly when making their costume.
My sister made a great Halloween costume when she was pregnant, so I used that idea to make mine while announcing to our friends and neighbors our exciting news. Our baby's due next May :)
