Early Halloween Post

So Juston wants Frankie to dress up as Flapjack for Halloween (he's the one on the right.)



I'm of the opinion that this is going to be *much* harder than Juston thinks. Do you people plan Halloween costumes for your kids/pets as early as this? If we do this Flapjack costume, I'm going to have to start looking now. (For the record, I have no idea what Bridget's going to be this year.) Oh - and I saw Christmas cards at the store yesterday. Yep. It's officially that time of year.

I'm a big Halloween nerd. I plan months ahead for the costume just in case I need to sew it. Luckily I didn't have to sew one this year, but I did order it already and it is hanging in his closet.

Yeah I'm nervous that this one might require sewing...finding a tiny red and white striped t-shirt on demand isn't as easy as one might think! Time to start hitting goodwill and just looking for a big person shirt that I can convert to a little person shirt.

Joey and I started talking about Halloween costumes at least a month ago. We still don't know what we'll end up doing though. Today I had to repress the urge to make pumpkin shaped sugar cookies. I just can't help it. It's my favorite holiday.

On a side note, was it you who suggested The Mommy Myth? I finally got around to checking it out today and am LOVIN' it!

Sun - I have been known to recommend that book, I think I remember mentioning it in your blog comments...it's a good one and I've got plenty more where that came from!

Jenny - we probably saw the cards at the same store...does anyone really buy Christmas cards in September? I mean, who's *that* organized? Surely no one with small children.

no way mary! this would be totally easy! and you could make a kid sized shirt out of fabric from the fabric store! just use other shirts of his as a template like we did when we made maternity shirts for you! you can do it! then just put him in jeans on the bottom. done and done.
