Like, waayy before.
And as it starts looming closer, I'm starting to panic.
Obviously, I plan to make the costume.
1. Because I love to do that kind of thing
2. Because I'm broke ;)
But necessity is the mother of invention right?
And Cruz NEEDS the most awesome "first Halloween" costume.
Here are my options.
First up:
Max of The Wild Things.Second Option:
I'm kind of embarrassed to admit this...but I'm a total Harry Potter nerd (I know!!) And we are having a Potter themed dinner party at our house (OMG). So I was thinking I would be Harry (OMG!!) and Cruz could be his owl Hedwig. Way to lame?? But C would make an adorable owl. And again, easy to make.Option 3:
I have loved this one since I was pregnant! I know its TOTALLY goofy, but this is the only year we would be able to do it. Considering I doubt that Cruz will want me to carry him in a pot next year. Or that I will be strong enough to lug a 20 month old around in a pot! Downside: I'd either have to buy it or spend a TON of time making it....Feedback anyone? I need some serious input.
I saw the lobster outit and considered it for my daughter's first costume last year. Then the thought of lugging her around made me nix the idea. I LOVE the other ideas too. I have a special affection for Where The Wild Things Are and wouldn't be able to resist it.
ReplyDeleteBut that owl costume is so cute and I could see Cruz wearing that. You dressing up as Harry Potter would be awesome. I think I'd do that one. Your ex could go as Ron Weasley's pet rat. ;-)
AHHH! Its been a long time since I laughed out loud like that! Thats the perfect costume for the ex! Thats probably the best costume idea I have heard all year!
