Also, this lobster.
Also, this car air freshener.

Nice read, I just passed this onto a friend who was doing some research on that. And he just bought me lunch as I found it for him smile Thus let me rephrase that: Thank you for lunch!
PUMA Women’s Golf Cat 2 WNS Golf Shoe
I attempted it on her yesterday and I possess the funniest photo of her half-crying bc she hates hat
I dressed up like a dice (I painted a huge cardboard box black, placed locations on it for your dice numbers, and minimize a hole for my mind and arms
I have played the online games especially the wow for a long times and I have some good advices for everyone to have the bestTera Gold in more easy ways, I also have the best ways for you of the Cheapest WOW Gold, please don’t hesitate !
oh my… that lobster costume is too adorable! and the kids face is priceless!
Ahhhh we are all DYING over that lobster costume: it’s the most ridiculously cute thing EVER! Thanks for sharing, Jo.
so many costumes are mass produced, terrible quality and made in dubious conditions!
my company makes adorable costumes for all ages in beautiful quality fabrics that are washable and soft and will last so much longer!
I don’t know if the lobster and air freshener are super-genius or super-cute! Especially the lobster one. And since when is air-freshener cute!?

my mom made me a max costume two years ago and i’m planning on wearing it again this year.
The Max costume is adorable. I am going to be a lost boy (girl). Not of the peter pan variety – but of the kiefer sutherland vampire variety.
lol that is so cute. i love the Max costume! the movie was a little… not what I was expecting. but I did love the music and the visuals. lol
SOOO cute. looks warm and cozy too
lucia is going as a peacock this year. the costume is so adorable it should be outlawed. I tried it on her yesterday and I have the funniest photo of her half-crying bc she hates hats! but she LOVED seeing herself in the mirror:)
The lobster is the best!!! Halloween is my most FAVORITE thing EVER! This year, I’m going as zombie Alice in Wonderland. I’m taking a zombie make up class and everything! Haha!
Every time I see that Max photo my heart skips a beat. I swear, I’m usually not this cheesy but that kid is TOO cute!
Claw machine!
I AM DYING AT THE LOBSTER IN A POT!!!
love this!!
those are such cute costumes! i love the max!! i think i’m going to be a can-can dancer from the moulin rouge, i bought a beautiful hand sewn dress at a costume shop, and i’ll probably wear a mascarade mask and long gloves with it. originally i was thinking of being an aristocat, wear clothing of an aristocrat and then put on cat make-up, but i’m not sure how many people would actually get it.
one of my favorite old go-to costumes will always be my andy warhol.
OMG these are so cute!!! Lovely photos! Still haven’t decided on a costume for myself or my nephews. These are great inspirations though, thanks!
That lobster costume kills me. So cute, so clever.
I love the lobster costume!! We’re going buggy this year: half of us will be bumblebees and the other half of us will be ladybugs. I think Daddy-O will wear his beekeeper suit. And like someone else said, any day is dress-up day in our house. I had three Tiggers bouncing around here this morning :)
Fun!
I am obsessed with this frame. The Chevron stripes are amazing! What an awesome giveaway :)
my boyfriend & i are going to me Marilyn and JFK. (:
oh my goodness, that Max outfit is making me want to go as Max!! (I can do that, right? ;) )
but actually, in lieu of a Halloween celebration we are going to have a Prohibition party with excerpts from the new Ken Burns’ documentary and period cocktails and delicious autumnal nash, in 1920s dress. So, I just have to find the right deco outfit! =) fun, eh?
haha i would love to dress my dad up in that lobster outfit – he totally loves lobsters. i probably won’t dress up this year…i did last year in a mini witches hat and cape.
Charlie is going to be an octopus, I don’t know if we can top Paul Bunyon from last year though

Lobster is the best costume I’ve ever seen!
that max costume is to die for! i loved where the wild things as a child and now that i am adult i still love maurice sendak.
oh. my. god. that lobster costume. im dying!
The lobster costume is un-real. SO cute.
OMG!!! If I were inclined to steal children (I’m not, don’t worry!) I would snatch up that kid modeling the Max costume all for myself!!
I have to share, since you’re a fellow Michigan girl. My friend and I are going as the Upper and Lower Peninsula. I’m going to get my crafty on!
You MUST post a picture of Toby as a shark!!!! (Please!)
ahhh my nephew was born a couple of months ago, his name is max, and i was SO determined to buy him a max costume, and i wanted this one in particular. it’s a little out of my budget, but it’s so beautiful i might just get it anyway haha!
haha, those are too funny and cute! i wish i had a little one to dress up! {one of these days} what is your little one going to be? xoxo

i’m going to be ms. frizzle!
I’m going to a Toddlers & Tiaras themed party. So needless to say I’ll be dressing myself as an outrageously outfitted toddler wearing way too much make up!
I’m dying over that lobster! I wish my son would sit still for that! My 2.5 yr old will be a lightening bolt, my husband will be rain (grey sweatsuit and felt water droplet on shirt) and I will be a cloud. Should be interesting!
That first picture is adorable. We don’t celebrate Halloween in Australia. A spontaneous trip to the US may be called for :) x
I’m gonna be a brand new mom! Simple costume: tired pale face and comfy homewear…wish me luck
We are having a lot of fun with Halloween this year:) I have two dinosaurs that now actually know how to say trick-or-treat! SO fun!
i’m gonna be a garden gnome!
little kids are most adorable @ halloween (especially the little guy dressed as a lobster). this year my kids don’t want to dress up (gasp! i hope they change their minds…).
as for my hubby + i, we’re not missin’ out. i’m channeling frida kahlo, maybe the mr can be diego rivera?
Bejeweled face, faux-hawk, glittery horn and a sparkly onesie…. UNICORN
I have not seen anything cuter than the lobster in quite some time. Adorable!

Jo, these are adorable. Love the lobster!
So cute! You and Alex should definitely be fisherman or surfers. We usually don’t dress up, but this year I’m thinking of being Junice and Nick would be Lawrence Welk.
I so want to dress up for Halloween, but I don’t have any reason to. We don’t know too many people in the town we live, so we’re not going to any parties. If I were to dress up, I think I’d go for a 60s mod look. My husband desperately wants to be a baroque dandy, so we’ll have to make that happen one of these years.
That Max costume is to die for! I’m gonna see if my brother will put my nephew in that haha :) So cute
My 3 y.o. son wants to be a Germ. That said, I am trying to decide on being either a box of soap, a doctor, or last night i thought it might be funny to be a CDC worker….
@Bronwyn – Umm, yeah, my husband and I are right with you on the nerd thing. He’s dressed like the 11th Doctor since before Matt Smith joined the cast, so he just has to update his sonic screwdriver (he just has the 10th Doctor’s). I’m going to dye my hair a bit redder and try to put together a reasonable facsimile of the Amelia Pond police officer kissogram outfit from The Eleventh Hour. We just re-watched that episode over the weekend for research purposes. :-P
I will be cheese, my husband crackers, and our 19 month old, well he will be whine.
i think i’m going to be dora the explorer this year. can’t wait!!
That’s so funny, my little boy was a shark last year! (he was one then) — made the funniest video of him crawling around the place in his costume and set it to the Jaws theme — grandparents loved it! :) My fave costume growing up was a homemade one of the Pilsbury Dough Boy!
YES, courtney, that would be amazing!!!!!
i LOVE that little max costume, i was max a few years ago too! i made my costume from an old long cardigan, scrap material and pipe cleaners. my crown was spray painted tagboard and it was an absolute BLAST.
toby will be an adorable shark!

Love those costumes!! My son is going to be a Viking…appropriate since, at 16 months, he destroys basically everything in his path. I found the CUTEST knitted viking hat on Etsy, and I’m hoping I can figure out how to make a no-sew fur vest ;)
The costumes are adorable and they make me wish I were going to a Halloween party this year. Maybe I could throw one myself…?
That lobster costume (and baby in it!) is the cutest thing EVER. I am so inspired to have our little family of three dress up as “Annie Hall” — me in a tie and vest a la Diane Keaton, my husband in Woody Allen glasses, and our little sweetpea as the lobster from that famous scene. :) Great post!
these are so cute! when i have kids, they will definatly have an outfit this cute. lol
i’m being a vampire! i pretty one of course, i am going to have AWESOME make-up.
STOP IT WITH THAT CAR AIR FRESHENER. i have a love/hate relationship with costumes that smother babies. But this is just so cute.
ps, i’m sure toby will be the cutest shark !
pps, http://amandamantes.blogspot.com !
I’m going as Progressive Flo ;) first halloween costume ever.
Aww, those pics were super cute!
Funny, I’m dressing my baby up as a lobster and that exact photo was my inspiration. :) Of course I’m dressing up as a chef. Yay!
