Halloween 2013

Our little minions.  I was so excited to get to dress two kiddos up this year for Halloween and even better with coordinating costumes.  I will admit, I have never been one that has been into Halloween, that is usually Josh's department.  But after this year I have determined that I am loving homemade costumes over store bought ones.  I am already thinking about next years!

So...Bo has been obsessed with the movie Despicable Me, or "Yellow Guys" as he calls it, so I thought he would love the idea of becoming a "yellow guy".  Their outfits were pretty simple.  Bo already had a yellow sweatshirt and some overalls and I got Vallery a yellow onesie with some overalls.  I ordered them knitted yellow guy hats from etsy and they turned out great! 

When the hats arrived I showed Bo and he grabbed the hat from me and instantly threw it on the ground.  Oh boy...he hates it!  From that point on Josh would wear the hat or I would put it on trying to get him to at least like the hat a little bit.  Typically Bo does well with hats, but not this one.  After a couple weeks I had come to conclusion that we would put the hat on and hopefully get one picture and call it day.  Well, Bo did great for Trick or Treat.  He kept the hat on all night (I think it helped that it was a little chilly so it kept his head and ears warm). 

One of my friends, Michelle, had a Trick or Treat party for the kids.  She had a spooky dinner and a fun game for the kids before heading out to trick or treat in the their neighborhood.  It was so fun seeing all the kiddos dressed up.  Josh took Bo up to each house, while Vallery hung out with me in the baby bjorn.  She was such a good baby the whole time.  She didn't sleep at all and was very content the whole time.
