Halloween - not my favorite holiday for many different reasons. One of these is the costumes. I am admittedly cheap. Costumes are not, unless you are talking about the quality. Multiply that cost times three kids, divide by the only time they will be worn ...
As I said, not a fan!
Imagine my delight when Diva and Little Man decided, completely on their own, that last year's costumes were perfect for this year. Last year's ensemble cast included Mustard, Ketchup and a Hot dog. All costumes were still presentable and fit, except Baby Boys (aka Hot dog).
After an extensive search (read: google search for "toddler hot dog costume"), it wasn't looking good. Then the week before Halloween, Momma scored a pretty good deal. There would be a slight change to the line-up - Hot dog would be replaced by Hamburger for a grand total of $4.00. Maybe this holiday isn't so bad after all ...
Fast forward to the long awaited night. After school, we headed to Grandma's more kid-friendly neighborhood for the festivities. My very excited Diva entered a crowded house and announced in perfect six-year-old volume:
"Mamou, Little Man and I are wearing our same costumes. But, we had to get Baby Boy a new one 'cause he outgrew his weenie!"
That's my girl! If you would like to contribute to Baby Boy's therapy fund, feel free to let us know.
