They look so excited! I hate to admit, but against all my typical buying (hand-me-downs, goodwill, MoM garage sales), I purchased - retail- the kids' costumes this year. yep. and of all places, pottery barn kids and the friggin disney store. However, I DID get my daughter's super cute Christmas dress at the MoM sale for $7.00. so. justified. LOVE the second photo! They look so excited!

I think this was the first set of clothes that I bought after I found out I was having twins. The kids worn them for Halloween when they were 5 months old. Then were so warm and cozy that here in Texas they were almost too warm. We used them again a month later when we went camping. They were perfect to keep the twins nice and snugly and they really looked cute. http://rustedsun.blogspot.com/2008/11/three-babies-6-months-and-younger-in.html This year we bought costumes on craigslist from another mom of b/g twins. She worked hard and made very cute Pebbles and Bambam costumes and now my kids get to wear them with out me having to work up a sweat.

I got them at our local multiples resale, and snapped them up so that they babies could match my older daughter's theme - she's going as a ghost. I'll be wearing a witch outfit so that I fit in too (we are going to a party on halloween day). Not sure what my husband will do, but he might wear a raven outfit that our neighbor offered to lend us.

My son is wearing the same costume from last year, too. It was pretty darn big on him then, and is maybe a touch on the snug side now, but it totally works. My daughter got a new one from Old Navy (always wait until they go on sale, of course!) and is her very favorite thing in the whole world: a butterfly. They love the costumes, so hopefully they'll stick around a while longer just for fun. .-= Goddess in Progress´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.goddessinprogressblog.com/2009/10/how-to-eat-more-salads/" rel="nofollow">How to eat more salads</a> =-.

I got my kids' costumes at a MOT sale. $10 for both, brand new, and in the packaging- a monkey for my daughter and a bear for my son. My kids are almost 20 months and currently wear 12-18 months clothing. The costumes just says toddler for the size and seem enormous, possibly 3T or 4T. I think they'll be able to wear them for several more years. At least, that's the plan. But at $5 a costume, if they decide they'd like to be something else (at what age do the opinions on costumes begin?), that will be okay too. What cute little butterflies!

And second, I did the SAME thing! My three year old girls still fit into their dog and cat costumes from Old Navy from last year, so I went with it. And their hoods were a little snug too, but they seem fine. We may keep them for dress-up while they fit after halloween too! First of all, adorable costumes AND girls!

My son is already using his costume for dress-up. We got him an engineer's hat and bandana, which he wore last weekend to go for an oil change with dad. The rest of his costume is a pair of overalls, which he'll certainly wear again. For the girls, I got pumpkin onesies, which will go in the drawer for everyday wearing after Halloween. I'm thinking of looking for some costumes on sale after Halloween to start a dress-up clothes box for the children. What cute costumes! My son is already using his costume for dress-up.
