Bonus points if you can link to the costume!! I am torn b/w wanting to do a sweet costume (a cute animal, last year he was a monkey) and somethinig more "grown-up." I was looking at cute puppy costumes but someone in my playgroup (also with a DS) made a disparaging remark about doing that with her DS b/c of his age so now I am second guessing myself.
Re: Boy Moms: What is DS Going to Be for Halloween?
I think they can be whatever they want---if he likes the puppy costume, go for it.
DS might be elmo this year---he was a giraffe last year and still loves wearing it! I got an Elmo play costume at Walmart a while back and I thought Halloween might be the best time to really wear it. BUT I think we'll shop together and if there's something he's super excited about, then maybe we'll do that.

ds#2 is going to be Thomas simply b/c we have that costume from when ds#1 was little. Ds#1 will probably be some super hero but we haven't really thought about it yet.
I don't get why it would be bad to put him in a puppy costume. If he likes puppies then i say go for it.
An old fashioned golfer, with the knickers, sweater vest, knee socks, newsboy cap, etc...
I need to bit the bullet and order the knickers and cap from Amazon.
DS is going to be a puppy, i think it will be adorable! dogs are his favorite thing right now and even though he doesn't say hardly anything, he can bark! a friend is giving us her old one from last year...from One Step Ahead. I think by next year he will want to choose, so i am going to enjoy this last one and make it more babyish.
DS was a monkey last year and this year he is going to be an elephant. I found a really nice costume on craigslist for half price.
I think that they will have so many options later on that he is going to be something I want.
DS had this costume last year. It is so cute. I am still debating on what he will be this year. I was thinking a duck since he loves ducks but we did a rubber ducky theme for his birthday so that may be too many duckies. I was thinking of going cute this year since in a few years he probably will want to be a super hero or something.
I'm leaning towards Superman. He won't wear/keep anything on his head so most costumes are out this year.
I was going to dress DS up as a monkey (because we always call him a monkey), but I saw this costume and couldn't resist! Plus, DD is now going to dress up as Dorothy.
