She's going to be Owlette. I gave her a few ideas, though :) </p> <p>My youngest ..I bought her a costume from Carter's but it's a bit too small I think. So I have a crocheted Boo hat, and I think she'll be Boo from Monster's Inc. I have a Minnie costume that'll fit her, too, so she can always be that if she wants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632779 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 10:16:51 +0000 yoursilverlining 2632779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@fancyfunction: If your LO has hair that's long enough, there are some good "coronation day hair" tutorials on YouTube! My LO went through a coronation day obsessed phase and I was able to do her hair like Elsa's - and if I can do it, anyone can! :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632747 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 09:24:59 +0000 Anagram 2632747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Older LO wants to be a mermaid and keeps saying she wants little sister to be a shark. But little sister was a baby last year and got the shaft then, too (LO1 was Frida Kahlo and LO2 was Diego Rivera) so I'm not sure.</p> <p>Maybe I'll let both kids be mermaids and make DH wear a Shark hoodie. And then I could be a diver? Still in the planning stages over here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632736 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 09:10:42 +0000 psw27 2632736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO (2) keeps asking to be a pirate, so a pirate it is! Now I just need to buy/make something for him! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632735 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 09:10:35 +0000 catlady 2632735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is the first year she picked (she just turned 3). She's going to be a bee. I think she got the idea from the Llama Llama halloween book. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632731 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 09:06:23 +0000 Bao 2632731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bubblegum: awww!

Still need to flesh out those details! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632699 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 08:43:01 +0000 nana87 2632699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>sort of a combination--I showed her an online page of costumes and she chose, but I kind of steered her towards one I liked ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632698 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 08:40:52 +0000 Foodnerd81 2632698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 3 year old chose for both her and the baby. She wanted to be a kitty cat so I bought some dollar bin ears for her and me, black top and leggings, and she will rewear her tutu from last year. She has said since I was pregnant that the baby will be a pumpkin baby, which works well since we have a hand me down pumpkin costume that my nephew also wore. </p> <p>So this year my total cost for costumes for them both and me is $15. (I will wear the ears and a black shirt). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632693 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 08:36:49 +0000 fancyfunction 2632693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really only got to pick for M on her 1st Halloween. This year she wants to be Elsa on her coronation - which they actually have a costume for! H will be a dinosaur. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632689 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 08:35:10 +0000 avivoca 2632689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>H picked hers (Skye from Paw Patrol). I am almost done with her costume. A will be an owl<br /> Because she will be a newborn and can't choose. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632686 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 08:32:45 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2632686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ValentineMommy: DD1 has been a witch for three years.

One year didn't make sense (all the princesses rolled into one) but I just went with it and let her do her thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632644 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 08:03:55 +0000 yoursilverlining 2632644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is picking her own (she's 4) - she also picked her costume last year.

Well, kind of...with some gentle guidance, hee hee. He wanted to be a stormtrooper, but I was having a hard time finding a decent costume in his size. I found a Chase (Paw Patrol) one and showed him that. He changed his mind instantly. He's SO excited now to be Chase! And A (7m) is going to be Skye - I just got her a hat from Etsy that looks like Skye's pilot hat, and then she'll wear a pink shirt and pants (which she already has). She can then just use the Skye hat as her winter hat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632607 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 07:26:31 +0000 Bao 2632607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They both picked theirs already. Gekko from PJ Masks for LO1 and Anna from Frozen for LO2. I picked the first two years of both of their lives. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-is-picking-your-los-halloween-costume-this-year#post-2632605 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 07:24:41 +0000 mrbee 2632605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used to be able to pick the costumes, but now it's a joint decision: we throw out some ideas, and the kids get excited about one and we go with it!
