Girl Outnumbered

I do not have very many pictures from Halloween, but I still wanted to share images of the boys and their costumes. I had it in my mind for years now that I wanted to make a Nacho Libre costume for Diego. Sadly, my costume ideas for Diego never happen. Diego decided early on that he wanted to be a Ninja, only after he saw the swords and other ninja accessories at Target. I was having a conversation about the Nacho Libre costume and showed her some pictures of various DIY versions. She convinced me that WE should make Dylan a Nacho Libre costume. First let me say, we are somewhat crafty, I mean my sister makes bows and girlie things, but none of us own a sewing machine. So we had come up with something that required little to no sewing. I wish I would have taken pictures of the process but I didn’t.

 

    

Most of these pics are really grainy and out of focus but I’am posting them anyway. This was the first year Dylan GOT Halloween. The last 2 years he was pushed in the stroller, but this year he was all about running around to each house. After about a block or two both Diego and Dylan were tired and were ready to call it a night.

This year, our little playgroup decided to have a little get Halloween Party for the kids. Our little playgroup rapidly grew into 20 something kids and Mom's. Talk about LOUD! Diego and Dylan enjoy being around other kids, so they were all kinds of rowdy that night. The kids played games like Limbo using a witches broom. My friends husband is DJ, so the kids had a light show along with the music to dance the night away. Sadly, I was feeling a little under the weather, so after a few hours It was time for us to head home.

I LOVE Halloween! By far my favorite holiday. When Diego was 3 months old, his First Hallooween, I saw the cutest little brother and sister duo dressed as a pilot and a flight attendant. Ever since then, I was all about having a theme. Last year, I waited to the last minute so we couldn't find anything. This year, was my year. So I thought. Diego decided he wanted to be Batman, and Dylan could be Robin. He is on this Batman kick right now, so I went with it. Then a week later he decides he wants to be Buzz Light Year and Dylan could be Woody. Then the next week he switches back to Batman and Robin. Seriously this kid is so complicated. One day Diego saw a Super Man costume, and that was it, that was his costume. He did not change his mind after that. To make a long story short, Dylan ended up being a pirate, which I bought the night before Halloween. I was such a slacker, I even forgot to buy new Halloween buckets, so they used last years.

As true Dylan fashion, he decided he wanted to ride in the wagon and eat his candy, after the first five homes we visited.
Diego of course loved every minute of it. He once again refused to hold my hand and wanted to walk around like a big boy with his cousins. He had so much fun running around from house to house.
Maybe next year, I will finally buy those KISS costumes for my boys, that I have been wanting for the last two years.
