The search for the perfect first Halloween costume!


OK so when Halloween started to creep up on me, I had to think what would be the best costume for Brennen's first one. I LOVE Halloween, it has always been a fun and relaxing holiday for me so it is one of my favorite. I also love to play dress up! So, I thought long and hard on what he would be, keeping in mind he is only going to be 8 months but he thinks he is older. So really, the lion and teddy bear kind of things were out. Even though they are soo cute. Well I finally came up with the perfect costume. If anyone know Brennen they know he would make the perfect Indiana Jones!!!! Only problem is that they do not sell a costume in infant sizes, so I had to put it together myself. I didn't think it would be difficult, but I was so so wrong. I had no idea how hard just finding a infant khaki shirt would be. I finally figured something out for that. Now all I have left to get is the jacket. I came across the perfect one online at bay gap. Only problem was that it was a little much for what I wanted to pay. So I decided to look around some more. Well, I found NOTHING. I went back to get the jacket and they were sold out!!! Now I am jacket less and Halloween is sneaking up and i just can not find a jacket that looks like Indiana Jones. I am getting a little worried! I will just have to keep looking. So if anyone knows of one let me know!! No matter, I think B will love it and look amazing! We are going to have a blast!!

cool idea! i just took Harper, Emma & Ethan to see the newest Indiana Jones at the drive in. Have you looked on E-Bay? Is there another Baby Gap close by? Will the Baby Gap in Fargo transfer one from another location? Have you check any resale shops? Your mom does have a sewing machine maybe you can have her make Brennen one!!!! Harper went as a duck her first Halloween!!! Good luck on the search.

Love Ya'll
