A liger?
Me: Biscuit, what do you want to be for Halloween?
Biscuit: A tiger!
Me: What about Max? From Wild Things? That would be so cute!
Biscuit: NO! I am not Max! A tiger!
(repeat 20 times over a few weeks)
Mr. H: Biscuit, what do you want to be for Halloween?
Biscuit: A lion!
Me: A lion? I thought you wanted to be a tiger.
Biscuit: A lion AND a tiger.
Me: A liger?
Biscuit (complete with eye roll) No, mom. A lion AND a tiger.
I'm hoping a tiger suit with a lion mane might fit the bill. So far she really likes the fur I selected.
So, what are you (or your kids) going to be for Halloween? And what do you think are the odds she will actually WEAR this costume if I make it?
Right, wasn't last year a bust or am i remembering incorrectly. Squeaker is going to inherit a frog costume and LM has many options for his costume. I will put one of his musings about costumes on my blog on Monday. Right now it changes every couple days. I almost bought a superman costume on craigslist, but glad I asked him again before I did... he had changed his mind to a fireman. Well, that is long gone and we will see what he says today. ;) I like the liger idea... perfect for an indecisive 3 year old. So, do you think we can pull off a superman-racecar-fireman-tree-darth vader costume?

Fuller is going to be Captain America, WW2 version. My husband is making the costume, you can see the progress in this flickr set.

I have one that wants a princess leia costume but I haven't figured that out yet. They're outrageously expensive. One wants to be either a panda or the statue of liberty *giggle* (earlier this month she wanted to be a jar of peanut butter). One an alien and one the grim reaper. I don't know where they come up with these. lol

The first time I asked her she wanted to be Santa. Then it went back and forth between the letter E or the letter S. Now I think she is decided on a butterfly.
