Like Anne Geddes, but better...

Halloween is upon us, and it is my favorite holiday, narrowly beating St. Patrick's Day. October means fall weather (except in Florida) and it's the season for my birthday (happy birthday, erin) Usually, I'm planning my halloween costume in July. I get that excited. I've come to realize that baby costumes are by far much funnier than adult costumes, and I've sought out my favorites this year:


First of all, isn't "freshner" spelled wrong? Second of all, this is funny because babies frequently smell bad.

Food products are ALWAYS a good halloween costume. And I warmly appreciate this kid's commitment to acting terrified of being boiled. Bravo.

Okay, now I know it's socially acceptable to baby talk to children about how they're so cute, you could just eat them up, but this is taking it a bit far.

See above.

And this one tops my list. I'm at a loss to understand the pairing of aliens to chickens, but a.) good job, mom and dad for the lifelike effects. James Cameron would be proud. And b.) all i ask is that my kids someday can make this same face. confusion? terror? dirty diaper? ...all of the above.

Happy Halloween!

P.S. I found a picture of a toddler in a Hitler costume that was wildly inappropriate. As much as I wanted other people to see that picture, Hitler does not belong on my blog...unless I'm talking about Apples to Apples.
