Maggie somehow lucked into two costumes this year. Okay, it wasn't luck; it is because her mom is horribly indecisive--a fault which I think I may never overcome. Nevertheless, Maggie asked to be a princess (she is a true girl), so I refashioned an old leotard that I found at Salvation Army into this little princess dress, and I am proud of my efforts so that I must share it with you. She looked ADORABLE! She wore the dress to all of the pre-holiday parties and our trunk-or-treat. Also I picked up a little spider webb (ha ha) costume because I couldn't resist. Then, when Halloween night was freezing cold and wet (in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy and also we live in upstate NY so of course it was freezing) she had a nice toasty spider suit. It turns out that Halloween pretty much rocks with a two year old. Trick-or-treating is SO MUCH FUN. Maggie was ready to quit long before I was. Also, she likes suckers and smarties and leaves all the good candy for us. Or me. Jack also had two costumes. He served as her prince charming (you can check out his highness in the blue and white laying next to his little buddy), but he donned a much more weather appropriate monkey suit lent to us by some friends for the Halloween night festivities.
