Caught In A Web of Costumes

If you’re anything like me, you ordered your child’s halloween costume way back in August when they first became available online. A month later, you changed your mind. Then, you changed your mind again.

And again. And again. And again.

Until finally it was the weekend before Halloween and you ordered the very best costume you could find on Etsy.

You were so excited when it arrived...

three sizes too big.

As in, large enough to fit a 3 year old toddler.

So, four days before Halloween the search began. Again. And just when you exhausted every possible idea and were ready to give in to those oversized plush animal costumes for infants defeat, the curtains opened and lightening struck.

I hightailed it to Michael’s, made a quick stop inside Babies R’ Us, and rounded the trip with JoAnn’s before heading home and starting her costume.

Myself.

After all, why leave to others what you can do best yourself?

Oh, I almost forgot.

She's caught in a spider's web.
