Now that I have kids, I LOVE halloween! Well, for now anyways since I get to choose what costumes everyone wears lol. Last year Robbie had to work so it was just me and Noah. Our costumes were pretty epic and he made the cutest little monkey!! This year Robbie had Halloween off which was so exciting! Not only would he be able to dress up with us, but he would be able to help me with the kids at trunk or treat. Having two kids is no joke! Especially one thats still so little right now.
We started brainstorming ideas over a month ago because since we live overseas we have to order things early so they arrive on time. Although we got to choose our costumes, we wanted it to be something Noah would also love. We thought about minions but all the costumes were pretty cheesy and I wasn't up for hand making them. Super heros was our next idea but Noah will probably want to be a super hero or something scary for the rest of his halloween days. Robbie finally decided on Ninja Turtles!
Siena's costume I found on etsy for a great price. It was worth it to me to buy the whole outfit and get it customized. I love keep sake things like that!
Noah's costume my mom sent me and was found at good old Walmart! 15 bucks for the whole thing. Talk about a steal. He was a typical two year-old and threw a tantrum about wearing it to play group that morning but after some convincing he put it on and had a blast with his friends! He was the cutest turtle! I'm glad he got to wear it all day, and the hat is his favorite part of his costume. He has been wearing it around the house all month! This age is so tiring but SO fun! You know, between the drama and tantrums that is ;)
Showing me his best ninja moves!
Robbie's costume was an Amazon find. It came with everything for under $20! Noah loved daddy's "dinosaur feet" haha.
Ya'll I took one for the team and got stuck being orange. I made it pretty cute tho. Again, Amazon for everything and under $20. I don't know what I'll do with myself when next year I can use Amazon prime! ah, America we're comin' for you ;) haha.
Noah had so much fun going to trunk or treating on base. This year he was really pumped about going and getting candy. All day yesterday he was saying, "Happy WEEEEN!!" cutest thing
e v e r. Siena snoozed through all of trick or treating giving me a dead arm because I held her. It was during her "witching hour" (how fitting lol) so I did my best to keep happy. Overall, it was a great night with my crew!
I hope you had the best time with your family and snuck a few Reese's from their bag after bed time. ;)
Adorable. My kiddos went as PJ Masks! I don't think I could ever get my husband to do a family costume, but I would LOVE to try it next year!
