DH will probably be a viking (again) because we already have the horns and it's his go-to, pairing his helmet with jeans and one of his many black metal t-shirts.<br /> The weather here tends to be fairly warm with the worst mosquito swarms of the season so we dress for comfort and protection while we stroll the neighborhood with friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899240 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 21:09:25 +0000 helloperidot 2899240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ajsmommy: </p> <p>DD1 is going to be a mermaid. DD2 is going to be a kitty cat. Usually I'm a witch, but this year I'll be 29w pregnant so I'm wearing a bright orange shirt with a jack o'lantern face on the stomach (Target maternity!).</p> <p>We do a few costume events before halloween-- DD1 will wear her witch costume from last year and I guess I'll have to figure out something quick for DD2 (she's almost 2 so she won't care about wearing an actual costume). This year I also grabbed a couple of Halloween themed outfits from Target for fun.</p> <p>As far as decor, DD1 prefers "kinda spooky" over outright scary, so we just have a bunch of pumpkins, some cute haunted house luminaries, and a fireplace banner that says "Happy Fall". We are in an apartment but hope to be in a house next year-- if so, DH has already given me permission to go all out. 😂😂😂 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899236 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 20:15:24 +0000 jhd 2899236@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BUNBUN: yes! i love having something they can wear again! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899181 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 13:51:02 +0000 LadyDi 2899181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS 1(4) wanted to be Batman so DS2 (1.5) is Robin and DS3 (4 months) will be the riddler. Basically he’ll have a green onesie with question marks on it. We do decorate outside and set up a little graveyard. We haven’t yet and DS has been bugging me about it so hopefully we’ll have time this weekend.</p> <p>ETA: not sure why the photo is sideways 🤷🏼‍♀️</p> <p>[attach=8262/19/pz69p2.320x240.BDB948EC-9F77-4B3A-B7A8-DCB47C172A7E.jpeg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899179 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 13:40:54 +0000 yellowbeach 2899179@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me: Queen<br /> DH: Knight (maybe King)<br /> DD (2.5): Princess<br /> Family wagon: Homemade castle with turrets</p> <p>...suddenly realizing I have a lot of work to do in the next 2 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899168 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 12:16:33 +0000 snarkybiochemist 2899168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BUNBUN: I will be milking the clothes/pjs route for as long as E will wear that type of costume and they are in my crafting wheelhouse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899167 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 12:13:44 +0000 BUNBUN 2899167@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@josina: @periwinklebee: This is so great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899166 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 12:13:07 +0000 BUNBUN 2899166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jhd: @snarkybiochemist: PJs/real clothes for the win! I love building costumes that way (admittedly, not always possible)! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899162 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 11:56:06 +0000 periwinklebee 2899162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BUNBUN: My mom replicated a costume (Thomas the train) that she'd made for my brother 30 years ago for LO this year, but in a smaller size since my brother was older when he wore it. So not quite reused, but we will definitely have to do a who wore it better contest with some old pics as it looks exactly the same :grin: </p> <p>My mom gets a huge kick out of making a Halloween costume for LO, so I just let her choose whatever she wants. He's not old enough to care at this point, it's one less thing for me to think about, and it makes her happy...so win, win, win. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899159 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 11:53:08 +0000 josina 2899159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BUNBUN: DS wears an old batman cape we had as kids, and I've been lucky getting both DD and DS to wear some of my old clothes. My mom has some super cute flapper girl dresses she made for my sisters and I that I hope to get DD in some day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899158 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 11:51:52 +0000 josina 2899158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so excited for the kid's costumes this year!</p> <p>DS wanted to be a wolf, so we're going with Little Red and the Big Bad wolf.<br /> I bought a wolf costume that ended up being too small so cut it apart and did some revising with a pair of jeans and a red/black fleece jacket. The arms from the costume made perfect shoe covers, just have to get DS to try it all on together.<br /> My mom made DD the red cape (for 50 cents!) and I have red corduroy bibs that I wore as a kid that match perfect! A white shirt and her basket from last year's Dorothy costume complete it.<br /> I'm hoping to get the kids outside to do a pre-halloween photo shoot with it all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899154 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 11:44:44 +0000 snarkybiochemist 2899154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JJ2626: I'm using a sweatshirt to make it and just having her wear regular pants. Since she is only 2 I'm not going to worry about shoe covers or gloves or a mask. I will use the hood of the sweatshirt for the dino head and if she doesn't keep it up eh whatever. I figure my best bet to keeping a costume on her is to make it almost like clothes </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899152 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 11:41:51 +0000 JJ2626 2899152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snarkybiochemist: ha same here! LO will be a dinosaur because she loves roaring like one. Though it’s unclear if she’ll actually tolerate a costume! DH and I don’t dress up. And we live in an apartment so no decorating. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/halloween-2019#post-2899150 Thu, 10 Oct 2019 11:17:04 +0000 jhd 2899150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got my boys Woody and Buzz Lightyear jammies from the Disney store to wear for Halloween pics this week. A group of photographers in our area do a Halloween costume photo food drive every year. My five year old may come up with other ideas between now and Halloween as far as what to wear for trick or treating. </p>
