Here are my boys on Halloween. While walking through the store looking at costumes, I kept pointing out all the "cool" things that most boys would want to be... ninja, starwars trooper, race car driver, spiderman, batman,... you know.. the normal things. No, that just wouldn't do for my Brenan. He insisted he had to be a doctor. And he wanted to be a doctor that was cutting someone, so we splattered his costume with red food coloring to make it look like he was blood-splattered from surgery. He thought it was awesome!
Connor was a puppy, and he was so good about letting me put that goop on his face. Brenan wore this same costume but he was older when he wore it and he understood a little bit more about what we were doing. Poor little Connor just could not figure out why I dressed him up in that thing, slimed him with stuff that I would normally be wiping OFF, and went to stand in line for hours to do the governors walk. He was sitting in his stroller looking up at me like I was insane and he just could not for the life of him figure out WHAT I was thinking!
I love this picture because it shows off his cute little tail. When I made this costume for Brenan I was a little upset at how short the tail was, but once I got it on him and saw him walk in it, it was perfect. It actually wags when they walk in it! It is hilarious!
Here is Brenan and his splattered doctor outfit. He refused to wear the stethoscope, although it was his favorite piece of the costume to play with. This was also the only time I got him to wear the mask.
I was a total slacker mom when it comes to Jack-O-Lanterns... this was the only one we did. He had to have something orange for preschool to take to show and tell and he loved those little pumpkins, so I got him one to make a face on. Poor thing was half rotted by the time we got a picture of it, but he was pretty proud of it anyway.
