    -supergirl/Superman
    -Dorothy/lion
    -Elsa/Olaf

    -sunflower
    -ladybug

    We did Batman for DS1’s first Halloween. DH wants DS2 to be a pumpkin for his first Halloween so my sister suggested Charlie Brown for DS1. He’s 4 so I’m not sure if I will be able to convince him. I don’t mind what they are but coordinating costumes would be fun.

    @Sams Mom: gah!! He’s so cute. Wow that’s really good for handmade and Peter Pan is one of my fave characters. I wish I had more time to make something this year, think I am just buying something from amazon. Btw your boy is so cute. You posted a pic of him having a tantrum on your kitchen floor. Reminds me SO much of my little rascal. Think they would be BFF .. he’s 2.5.

    @SupernovaJ: they're basically the same age! Mine will be 2.5 the first week of October. I tell him all the time it's a good thing he's cute, because he can be a terd.

    DH - vampire
    DD 4 - witch (for the third year in a row)
    DD 1 - black cat

    I'm just not sure what I should be. I'm too chubby to pull off a skeleton costume confidently. But I should do something that fits their theme!

    Two years ago, DD was a punk rocker. Last year she was Raggedy Ann (OH and I were also Raggedy's).

    This year DD is going to be Katerina Kittycat and DS will be Daniel Tiger. I am going to be Henrietta and OH will be Dad Tiger. If we get ambitious we are going to make our Joovy Caboose into a trolley.

    @SupernovaJ: brown eyeliner! I believe I had to bribe him with a tootsie roll to get him to sit still, lol.

    @Ms. RV: Those are adorable! The mohawk!

    I’m thinking a family Adventure Time costume. I’m not sure if we have the funds for a family costume (even though this would technically be pretty cheap).

    LO1: Finn the Human (blue shorts/shirt, diy green backpack and white hat).
    LO2: Lumpy Space Princess (DIY costume for baby. Maybe do BMO instead?)
    Me: Casual Princess Bubblegum (purple jeans/jeggings, pink hoodie, felt crown).
    DH: not sure. I’m thinking Simon maybe. Maybe Ice King. Idk.

    @Ms. RV: Oh my goodness that Raggedy Ann!
