Happy Halloween

I am not going to lie, I think Maxim is the cutest little Halloween baby ever! Yes, I did say that and I fully believe it too. For his first Halloween experience I dressed him up as a black widow spider. I also made the costume myself. I am so proud of myself as I hand sewed it together. Yes, I busted out my home-ec skills that I learned back in seventh grade and I went to town. Andy was very doubtful that I could sew, but he was impressed that I made it happen. Here is the cutest black widow spider.

This costume only cost me $14.96 to make. Here is the breakdown for you accountants out there.
  • Black hat - $2.99
  • Red material - $.99
  • Black onesie - $0 (had it already)
  • Black leg warmers - $2.99
  • Web - $.99
  • Black socks - $5.00
  • Stuffing - $2.99
I am pretty proud of myself as a first time mom making my baby's first Halloween costume...and that it turned out so awesome!

We went to lunch and then took the big man to my work for the Halloween festivities and really just paraded him around to show off how cute he is. For lunch Andy dressed him in his Halloween onesie and Halloween socks...I was so proud!




Happy Halloween everybody! I hope you had a fabulous day celebrating.
