Halloween in August

Last year at the after Halloween sales, Aunt Sarah and I thought we were being thrifty and smart as we hunted down a gender neutral Halloween costume for Baby Wilt to wear this October. With Sarah's help at the Targets in Texas, we tracked down a baby lobster costume and matching lobster costume for Dexter. Perfect! Knowing that he/she would be 7 months old in October, we bought the 6-9 month costume thinking we'd have extra room if Baby Wilt was a little larger than average. Well, a few weeks ago, I started thinking that the 6-9 month costume may not work since Grant's already wearing 9-12 month clothes. I pulled out the lobster costume from the basement and could barely get it to zip up over Grant! I wanted pictures of our boys in their lobster costumes, so I put Dexter's costume on him too! Below are the pictures from our Halloween celebration in August. Most of the pictures are very similar, but I think they are all adorable and can't decide which ones to leave out of the post.

Yesterday, Grant and I went and found another costume for him to wear for Halloween in October. This time, I bought the 18 month size. (Felt crazy since he's only 5 months old now!) I put it on him this morning, and it's a little long but I think it will be perfect in October! I can't wait! Now to find a matching costume for Dex... ;)
