We Had Turkey for Halloween

Jonathan puts himself in charge of Baby Halloween Costume Acquisition, and this year hit another grand slam. I think our turkey came out just right.


(top left and bottom right from her school's costume "parade" and top right is Daddy's "Ghost of Elvis" costume. Yeah, I don't know. Bottom left is our trick-or-treat tally about two-thirds of the way through the night. Final count was 129.)

With Aunt Martha the Fox at our church's trunk or treat:



First-ever trick-or-treating stop, with neighbor Bo:



We are both pretty shocked that we have gotten her to wear this costume 3 TIMES now, head piece included, especially since the try-on sessions were not very successful. And before you ask, yes, we will be considering this outfit for Thanksgiving Day.

And a look back, for posterity's sake:



(Can't wait for our repeat little turtle next year with tiny baby girl #2!)

If one thing's for sure, this is somewhat of a WILD turkey! She wants to run everywhere and gather acorns and rocks to eat. In other words, it is tough getting photographs of this turkey.

I said this on instagram yesterday, but Halloween may be reason enough to become a parent. Seeing your little one in costume (along with her friends) is almost too much goodness and hilarity to handle.
