As Halloween is approaching I am trying to stay ahead of the game and getting costumes ready. No, I am not the kind to make the boys their costumes, call it lazy, untalented, or uncreative - I just don't and really never plan to.
So Jordan knows what he wants to be, as usual an unpopular choice - Legalos from Lord of the Rings. We recently let him watch the chronicles - new characters to him, the rest of the world...a little old. I might try and talk him into something else but he is usually set in his ways.
Diego on the other hand....he has his mind made up, "Handy Manny that is what I want to be....and I be wolverine (X-men) and I bam you 'caues I be Kung Fu Panda!" Ah, yes all in the same breathe. I explain that he can only be one, so he picks one. We talk about Halloween and within minutes he changes his mind! Oh, what to do, if I stay ahead of the game by halloween I know he will expecting something else.
I do have to say I love Diego's age, he can make his own choices and explain why the decison makes sense to him.
I will keep you all posted!

I am so excited to see that you are ALIVE and posting. I miss you! Emma is going to be the pumpkin she was last year. yes funny thing it still fits her.. well as of a couple weeks ago it did..if not she will be a black cat with Sarah!
Cant wait to see pics of their costumes!
I love this age too. Let Jordan be what he wants. I don't even know who Legalos is. Do you and Vince dress up? We just discovered the Wizard of
Oz at our house- and we might all dress up as a different character. We'll see.
2 year old are so funny.
Isaac changed his mind DAILY for MONTHS last year...eventually I made a executive decision...both pirates AND I just cut up old clothes and went to the $1 store for patches.
This year I have big plans, but I haven't started yet---so yeah those plans might not happen!
