I just couldn't resist!

After an agonizing week trying to win a bid on eBay for Dylan's Halloween costume, I was finally successful....twice. Yes, that's right - I did a major eBay no-no and bid on two costumes, sure that I would lose out on the first. All I wanted was one costume!! Alas...I have already re-listed one and it is already being bid on so at least I'll be able to recoup some money.

The first costume arrived today and I'm sure it's bad form to send photos of kids in costumes before the actual candy-fest (kind of like it's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding?) but when I saw Dylan in his lion costume - I COULD NOT RESIST!



He's already well practiced with the rrroooaaarrr (which was the inspiration for the costume in the first place) as you can see in the first photo. And I just love the tail!! Too cute. Thank you Old Navy for making awesome costumes!

I love it! Especially that he can actually roar. The toe nails are cracking me up!

That is the cutest thing ever! I love his smilin' cute little face! You must call me and let me hear the "roar"! And don't worry, I don't think its bad form to send the picture out before Halloween!

I love it! Madison was a lion last year because she did such an excellent roar! Of course, getting her to perform on Halloween was another thing. Too cute!
