What will your babe be for Halloween?

[jsh7809]

I'm not super into Halloween, but have started thinking how cute it will be to dress up my then-6 month old. My husband wants her to be a little tiny baker, what are you thinking of??

V will be almost 11 months, and we're leaning heavily towards Baby Gaga, though I'll have to do a test-run to see if she'll keep the little baby wig and makeup and sunglasses on!

Never actually done it, but I always say I'll dress my nursling in a dark gown & say she's a leech.

I've never dressed up the little ones for halloween either...I think I'll be so busy with my older kiddos that dd will probably just hang out in the Moby.

I'm working on a yorkie costume.
We have 2 yorkies, so I think it will be cute and make a good photo op.

We already have a cute little pumpkin costume my oldest wore at this age, so I think she will wear that, and I will wear my pumpkin t-shirt I made last year when pg with her.

[red and lulu]

last year (at 3 mo) dd was a pickle. my mom made the costume. it was ridiculous.

this year she's going to be a cupcake.

she's just so edible!

I'm too excited about this. We're doing star trek. DH has requested that I dress as Seven of Nine , DH will probably be a Klingon, and DS is dressing as a borg baby! I'm too excited about it! Need to start on his costume...

DD will be 10 months old and we are going to dress her up as a sock monkey

Cecilia has a lobster costume my mom bought on clearance last year after Halloween. Now we just need to get a big big big stock pot.

My original plan was we would both be faeries. a faerie is my fall-back costume and I could make it in my sleep.

BUT, my sister came up with a better suggestion. I'm going to get a very 80s looking outfit (which shouldn't be difficult since the 80s are back), and figure out some natural way to spike and/or color her natural mohawk (any suggestions?), then I'm going to scrunch some babylegs for leg warmers, and give her a cardboard keytar or double-necked guitar. 80s rocker chick baby.

I'm turning my babe into a garden gnome!!! She'll be 5 months and just the right size...

[jsh7809]

Aaah, these are all too awesome, I am LOLing ! Let's be sure to post pix after Halloween... I would love to see that pickle-babe now, though.
So fun!!

Berries. Some berries stain pretty badly and I imagine would make pretty good hair dye. Blueberries or blackberries for instance might give her a good purple. Blackberries are in season right now, so you could go pick some and toss them in your freezer for later.

I really wanted to dress DS up as Maggie Simpson, but he doesn't use the paci at all, so it wouldn't work
We have 3 border collies, so thinking about dressing DS as one of them.

love this idea!

[matthia]

we have a westie so I kind of want to get two of the same outfit (overalls or something easy) and dress them both up (DS will be 4months) and have a before and after baby werewolf...

[texaspeach]

I always have ds on my back these days.. if we go to any parties I'm going to dress him as a monkey and wear him on my back and carry around a moonshine jug (actually a beer jug that says "big ass bottle of beer" from a brewery). monkey on my back kind of in poor taste but our friends would think it funny

[november]

I don't know but I am SO looking forward to this! I have been excited for her first Halloween since the day I found out I was pregnant, lol! I'm thinking a little baby elephant would be hysterically funny and cute but I don't know for sure.
