Halloween's Just Around the Corner

With Halloween just around the corner it's time for me to decide what the Boss is going to be this year.  Since she is just 5 months old and will only be dressing up to visit her Grandparents, and Aunts and Uncle I don't want to spend a ton of money on her costume.  Having said that, it's still her first Halloween and what kind of a mother would I be if I didn't have a great costume and photo for the old baby book.  There are a ton of great ideas without spending a lot of money, you just have to be creative.  Here are a few of my options with things she already has:

A Gator Cheerleader, outfit from her Aunt Katie.

A Moose, no costume required!

An Eskimo.  My parents bought her this adorable jacket while on Vacation.

A frog, courtesy of my two girlfriends .

OR

Tom Cruise, risky business style.  Sunglasses from Aunt Lindsay and shirt size 6-12 months purchased at a Gymboree clearance event months ago.

So many choices....what will I ever choose?  Maybe I already have something else fabulous up my sleeve?  You will have to stay tuned! In the meantime before you go out and spend a fortune on a costume your baby will only wear once.   Use your creativity and take a look around your house, I bet there is more there than you thought!
