So what is everyone for Halloween?

Just curious what all the little ones and/or furbabies will be dressing up as and if any adults will be enjoying the festivities :)

Maya is Supergirl.  Cam is The Incredible Hulk.  We are invited to a costume party on Saturday, but DH will be going solo.  He is Luigi and his friend is Mario.  

I can't wait to see pics of all the costumes!

  • Olivia is a Viking cheerleader. She first wanted to be Smurfette but didn't like the ones you can buy and couldn't find coordinating blue shirt/pants, so we went with the cheerleader. :)

  • Jackson is a monster of some sort...it is a hand-me-down costume from my cousins.   I brought it out last night and the kid is scared of it.  he has a puppy costume as a back up, but he wouldn't go near that either...he may just be a cute kid with a custome in hand :)
  • Ella is a butterfly. I hope it's cool for her to wear her coutfit, or else she'll sweat to death! I do have back up brown pants that'll work!
  • DH and I are planning on doing Mario and Princess Peach, if I can find a dress I like in time.

  • DH and I are going to a Halloween party and are going to be Marge and Homer Simpson.

    The dogs will probably be a monkey, a pumpkin, and a squirrel as those are the costumes I have collected so far.

    I was going to be Smurfette but had the same problem! There is no smurf blue around!!!!

    DD is going as a ladybug to her Halloween party at school and Elmo on Beggar's Night. This kid can not get enough Elmo!

    My BF and I are going as tourists.....fanny pack included!!!  

  • What cute costumes!!!

    Gianna is a Owl...I kind of stole the idea from a pin on pinterest. Oh well :-)

    I'm realizing that it was too babyish for Katen but next year I'll make up for it.

  • We have a little lady bug this year.
  • I've got a Daphne from Scooby Doo and a cute little ice cream cone! Ella cannot get enough Scooby and Jovie cannot get enough ice cream :-). I too will be rocking the tired SAHM attire ;-)
  • For Night Eyes, Ella was a panda, H was a frog, and I was a zookeeper.

    She also has a cute pumpkin costume that she'll at least need to rock long enough for pictures.

    H really wanted to go as Power Rangers, but we weren't having luck finding matching pink or yellow for my costume. We would have loved to purchase ours and just make Ella's, but weren't willing to pay over $110 to purchase.

    We also thought about going as gangsters. H and I have a pinstripe suits (mine's a skirt. We were going to make Ella a bag of money and purchase some hats and guns to round out the look.

  • Natalie is going to be Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz.  She is very excited to wear sparkly shoes :o)

  • Chance is going to wear an outfit that is an orange onesie that says "So cute it's scary!" with brown pants.  If I get enough time, I'm going to make him a turtle shell out of felt so he can be a sea turtle.

    William is going to be a tiger, which we got at a garage sale over the summer.  He LOVES that thing, and roars very well.

    I'm going to rock a black cape and witches hat handing out candy.  not sure if Chance is actually going to go out with DH and William, or if he'll be my Witch's turtle.  Maybe I should shove him in his black sweats, find a black shirt and draw whiskers on him to make him my black cat.

  • My kids are Halloween haters. Cohen has always disliked wearing costumes, but we managed to convince him to wear last year's panda bear. AJ will be a tiger, unless he decides to undress himself (which is likely). Asian animals wasn't my first choice for a theme, but it'll work.
    Happy mom to two sweet, silly boys: Cohen age 4, AJ age 2.
  • Betsy is red Minnie and Carly is pink Minnie.  I'm exited that they can just wear the short-sleeved dresses without coats out here.

    Betsy keeps asking me what my costume is and I say, 'a mom' and she says, ok, let's find you a mom costume and I say you are looking at it!

  • Bowen is a lion - found a super cute costume for him on diapers.com. I'm going as the chauffeur. Brett is the co-pilot. Hah!

  • Nicholas is a fireman, simply for the fact that I went to BRU the other day because I knew the costumes were already on clearance ($9!) and I only had two choices for little boys. I didn't actually think he'd wear it, so I didn't want to get too invested in anything, but my mom got him to wear it for storytime today.
  • (Thanks to MrsReem) Reagan will be a bumble bee. Not sure how she'll do this year being only 2 but we'll try it.
