    So will you be dressing up your babies for Halloween? If so have you decided on costumes? We are thinking young and old Elvis but haven't decided for sure. Does everyone want to share their ideas?

    I want to dress them up, but haven't decided on costumes yet. I have so many ideas!
    Raggedy Ann and Andy
    Star Trek characters
    An angel and devil
    peas
    cute animals...the list could go on!

    I don't know what to choose!

    I was going to do cop and robber (older ds as a warden) but not sure now… they will go to my sons School carnival but be asleep for trick or treat… so I’m not gonna invest crazy time into it… save it for next year

    I am so excited about Halloween, but I am up in the air about what they will be. DH wants them to be Dronkeys (the babies that Dragon and Donkey had in Shrek), but I want them to be different things that coordinate. We also don't want to spend a lot of money because they wont really being going anywhere, the costumes are really just for pictures.

    i just bought the 2 cutest costumes (i thought.. lol) at bru last week, but they have nothing to do with each other. one is a brown monkey and one is a pink poodle. i know whoever gets the monkey is gonna be mad when they get older... lol.

    Well-before these babies were born people were thinking of costumes for them!

    They will have just turned a year by the time Halloween comes around...We are thinking:

    MARIO AND LUIGI!

    Too funny! Seeing how one is totally Mario(Anthony) and the other is totally Luigi(Nicholas). And it doesn't hurt that they are 50% Italian!

    We'll see if we go through with it or not. I have to find the coordinating outfits for them...Hmmmm.

    I bought costumes a couple of weeks ago. :) I got a monkey costume for my little Romanator, and a lobster costume for Joel. They are so adorable. Yeah, they don't really coordinate, but I don't care. :)

    I have my older sons costume from a few years ago and I was thinking about using it. It is a Hersey Kiss! It was so cute on him that I thought I would put it on one of the boys.

    Your Nicholas is my Maia, she has been affectionately dubbed Satanetta!
    Sofie is a sweetie *most* of the time but she definitely has her moments when I swear I see a glint of evil in her eye! She throws silent temper tantrums, she clenches her jaw and her fists, her eyebrows go down and she shakes. It probably wont be funny in a year or two but right now its adorable!

    Dianna,
    I love the idea of old Elvis and young Elvis! That's awesome!
    We were thinking of dressing Luke as Yoda and Sophia as Princess Leia. This all depends if we can find a Princess Leia costume. If not, then we might dress them as pumpkins!

    We're not sure what to do here. Since Logan was named after Marvels x-men wolverine we are kind of leaning towards dressing him up as wolverine but, then with Lacy there isn't a girl in the X-men series that really fits her too well.
    So, we aren't really sure what to do? Anyone have ideas?

    I haven't decided on what to dress my twins and toddler for this year, however last year Eric was Bam Bam and our friend's daughter was Pebbles. It was really cute. It would be fun for boy/girl twins. Eric has such a Bam Bam way about him, we really couldn't do anything else!
    I love hearing all of the ideas, b/c we really want something fun for all three boys.
    Thanks for sharing!!!

    when I was in the waiting room waiting to get my ultrasound to confirm there was a heartbeat, I picked up a twin magazine and it had halloween pictures. there was one with twin boys dressed as Batman and Robin that made me laugh out loud.
    10 minutes later, we see two heart beats...a few months after that, we find out two boys...so I just have to do Batman and Robin.
    It's so funny, there's not any doubt as to who's going to be batman and who's robin! they will fit the characters very well!

    That is AWESOME!!! I *heart* Xmen!! Jean Grey is my personal favorite, she is tattooed on my back. But I also think Rogue, Storm and Emma Frost all kick booty! Have you checked out marvel.com, there is a character section which may be helpful. Please let me know what you decide and post pictures!!!

    I know! I was thinking of this too but I would feel bad.

    Then I found the cutest bee and ladybug costume, but they are for 1 yr and up. So now I don't know.

    My twins will be here in September; at one of my showers I got these cute little outfits that say "I love my Mummy" and it has a teddy bear on each wrapped up like a mummy. This is what they'll be wearing for Halloween!

    Since Halloween is also my husband's and my anniversary (10 years this year) , Halloween is a huuuuge holiday for us.

    I was thinking of Charlie Brown and Sally since my son has a very round, very bald gourd for his noggin.

    And then, there's Alice in Wonderland too, he could be the mad hatter, since her name is Alice. Or they could be tweedle dee and tweedle dum.

    Oooor, the wicked witch of the west and a flying monkey.

    I haven't decided yet. It also depends on whether they're walking by then or not because some of the costumes can be a bit bulky.

    my 4th DS was born in Sept and we were given one of these exact same outfits and that's what he wore as well - he was so cute in it (as will your!)

    as for my twins this year... truthfully, I hadn't even thought about it - until I saw this thread! some great ideas you ladies have!

    We recently did a baby parade & dressed as Fre Flintstone & Barnet Rubble with the stroller decoed out like their car. It helps that I have one with brown hair and one with blond hair!!!

    I just may have to steal this idea for myself. We are always calling Julian "Bam-Bam" -- it is so his personality :D And Sara would make a really cute Pebbles......

    Keep the ideas coming - I'm so terrible about this kind of thing!
