I always get a kick out of what kids choose to be for Halloween. I remember putting so much thought into what I wanted to dress up like as a kid. One night to transform into another character...what a thrill!
Grace wanted to dress up as Pippi Longstocking. She's been a big Pippi fan since we read the book together this summer. She thinks Pippi Longstocking and Junie B. Jones (another book character) are the "silliest girls!" They really make her laugh. Eve's choice was a little surprising...she wanted to be a chicken. I was almost certain she would choose to dress up as a princess, but she stayed consistent with her desire to wear the chicken suit from our dress-up box (Grace wore it on Halloween when she was two, so it was a bit snug on four-year-old Eve!) Daphne had no choice, nor was she even really aware that she dressed up as anything! She wore a red chili pepper costume for these pictures and then I spared her the rest of the night!
It actually wasn't as much work as I thought it would be...but I did keep it pretty simple. The best part: I won't have to cook dinner for days!
