One of these things is not like the other

We did the whole “head out and get candy from strangers, but kids, never do this again unless I tell you it’s ok and I will always eat your candy to be sure it’s ok” holiday. LB wasn’t too sure about things at first until she found out she got suckers.

Baby O was a pea in the pod (all together now? Ahhhhh.)

image

LB was Cinderella (comment on her shoes here. Oohh! They LIGHT UP! Oooolala!)

and I?

Well. I was the scariest of them all.

With the ability to make small children bawl, husbands slink off to the kitchen to do the dishes, and three year olds choose an hour of alone time in their room instead of spending time among the wrath:

I was PMS, hormonal, postpartum, sweat-suit wench woman.

I eat small children and raw macaroni necklaces. But only together. And with salt.

Raur.

    What a freaking awesome costume!

    I should have done THAT this year. It would have saved me from having to stuff my bra to infinity and beyond to play the counter part to my husband’s “Dog the Bounty Hunter” costume.

    Sigh.

    That is adorable. I almost got the pea in the pod costume but alas I went with a bear costume for my son instead. I think he pulled it off though.

    They are adorable of course and as for your costume—that’s what I have been every other year!  I managed to not to do that this year and it was really great this year. 

    Just wanted to let you know you weren’t the first to come up with this particular “costume”

    The kids are so cute and I could have just copied your costume. Instead I went as Dorothy, Charlie was my flying monkey and Jon followed behind as the scarry pirate. Too bad Charlie won’t remember the year his parents went all out for Halloween, I don’t know that I’ll ever do it again!

    So cute!!!! Princess shoes are lovely, but LIGHT UP princess shoes? Rawk.

    I was stressed out/needs a drink half assed kitty mom who forget to paint her face, but wore a leopard sweater and a kitty ear headband. wink

    Ahh, look at O already trying to comfort his pumpkin woman, L, in the gym shot where you turned Devilish.  SO ADORABLE.  Your pics of the kids are great.

    LOL!  My hubby’s in the same run-away-from-the-hormonal-woman phase (even though it’s his damn fault).  Cute kiddos - LB looks *so* much more grown up than the last photos I’ve seen of her… is she shooting up like a weed or is it just the Cinderella-ness?  (Oh man, now I want to go watch Ever After…)

    Breathtakingly cute! Also? Baby O and my Ruby had the same costume…..They warmed the entire NW with their cuteness. That is why we had such nice weather:)

    Awwww, I dressed the bean up as a um…bean too!  Well I just used a green sling and put 3 round peices of paper on the outside of a sling and called it a night. Creative, huh?  Or is it just lazy.
