It’s the baby’s first Halloween! Hooray! And like the excellent mother that I am, I…totally did nothing to celebrate the occasion.
I know, I’m awful. But guys…it’s a Wednesday. And costumes cost money. And he’s a baby. I just didn’t have it in me to care.
But I did put him in his shark hoodie, which, while not technically a costume (this is just normal adorable everyday wear ’round these parts), should earn him a few points:
And please note that his socks, although monkey-themed and not actually related to Halloween at all, are in fact orange:
And I did have a pumpkin t-shirt from a bag of hand-me-downs (sure, it was technically a girls shirt — but beggars can’t be choosers!):
And Grandma had some pumpkins that he found quite intriguing (too bad the aforementioned pumpkin shirt was dirty by this point in the day):
Best of all, my mom’s neighbor had their house all decked out, providing for this fantastic photo op:
Based on the photos, it almost looks like I put some effort into making my son’s first Halloween special!
Next year, I swear I’ll actually try.
Most likely.
