When/where is your LO going to wear it?
I bought DS an orange sleeper that looks like a pumpkin with a matching pumpkin hat. We don't have any halloween parties to go to, so I think he will just wear it all day on the 31st. We'll just take some pictures and show him off to his grandparents on Skype.

I made Jonah a lion costume. We took him to a pumpkin patch on Sunday and took some pictures there. We're planning to take him out trick-or-treating this weekend, too.
It is, I realize, a little ridiculous to take him trick-or-treating, since he doesn't get anything except breast milk. I just didn't want to skip any of his "firsts", so I went crazy sewing and making him a costume, and now we're committed!
We have no where to go on the 31st. And no parties ahead of time. So she'll just wear it on the day of where ever we go.
Next year when she's older I think we'll throw a "babe-o-ween" party at our house and invite all the neighborhood babies (lots of girls were born the past few months) and have veggies and such, and just let the kids play in their costumes while we pass out candy. I think I'll also encourage the other parents to bring their candy to our house, so it'll be a one hit wonder house! And who ever stops by gets 5 houses worth of candy at one stop.

We got a monkey costume from a friend so LO is a monkey and I will be a banana.
We are going to our church's Annual Halloween event. It's a blast.
DD will be wearing hers to DC on the 31st and just around the house for pictures. My sister invited us to a party at her house but it will be a lot of college kids and I don't think DD would enjoy it.

We got a monkey costume from a consignment sale as well. I made a tutu to go over it so that people will know she's a girl.
We'll just sit in the driveway and hand out candy, I'll probably take out a few blankets for padding and let her just play out there. It's a fleece costume so even if it's cold she'll be warm.

He is going to be a cow. Today he wore it to a Fall Festival at my old job (daycare/preschool). On Saturday we have another Halloween party that his dad will take him to, and then on Monday we're going TOT.
Awesome! I was eyeing that same pattern for Gus but I ran out of time to make two costumes. So he'll be wearing a pumpkin costume I made two years ago for my daughter. Next year I'll have to get an earlier start sewing costumes!
We're taking the kids to a Halloween event at a local church so he will wear the costume there.
That's a pretty adorable costume! Nice job!
Have fun! We are sad to miss it this year, but my GF is getting married up in Northport this weekend.
Awwwww. He's soooo cute.
every year our group of friends have the kids dress up in a theme.
This year's theme is Harry Potter.
My DS is going to be Hedwig (Harry Potter's owl)
Can't wait!
