Gothic - Monkey

Okay, so I'll explain the title in a few.  It's Halloween, costumes, candy, and fun! So I found a cute little costume for Aiden. Tay on the other hand had a hard time figuring out what she wanted to be. It went from  a zombie, to a zoo keeper, to a Gothic Vampiress, to just Gothic. Yep, that's what I said.  Gothic, really? Okay, so take a look at this picture before I go any further.

Now, take a look at these.  Would you believe they are the same girl?  I almost didn't believe it, and I did her make up and helped her get ready!  Kind of scary when I look at them together! I hope I'll be looking at the first picture later in life and not the next few.

I'll admit, it was fun putting the make up on and helping her get all Goth(ed) <--is that really a word? up.  I have to say, I think she pulled it off rather well,  maybe a little too well!  Another scary thought! I wondered if Aiden would be a bit scared of her, but he was right there under my feet when we were getting her ready.  Oh and look at this little cutie!

This costume was rather fitting since I've been calling him "monkey" for some time now.  He climbs on everything!  He did really well in it last night at our family Halloween party and tonight at our church's Trunk or Treat! It really kept him warm too.  

So there you have it, Gothic and a Monkey.  I'd say this Halloween was a success.  Had a great time with family and friends and also had Aiden's first Halloween with us.  He enjoyed himself at both occasions.  Although, he didn't sit still for one minute at either.  This monkey does.not.stop! He's on the go all the time! Which is good.  He's healthy, happy, and the most lovable kiddo!  So thankful every day that he is with us and we get to enjoy all of his firsts with us!
