Nick insisted on this Optimus Prime costume that is about two sizes too small and shows a huge wedge in the back and all of his junk in the front is squeezed in like he's a Russian dancer or something. I was literally in stitches and emailed close-up shots to MP and my sister (and others.) I don't dare show them on here and I swear I'm not a crazy lady - it's just so funny and something you'd only expect to see Will Ferell do as a joke in a movie! Poor little guy, he's going to hate me for allowing him to wear it someday... And he thought he looked so cool that he wants to wear it next year. Hey, it'll be double the laughs when it's smaller!
Awww...
I'm in my costume too~ I was dressed as a Dave Matthews fan (I went all out and put on a cap for the look) who stayed home to pass out candy! ;) What a LAME mommy!
My excuse... Everybody, say it in unison..."she's STILL SICK!" More to follow on that!

So sorry you are sick :( Hope you feel better soon. Thanks for your nice comment on my going on retreat :)
ReplyDeleteYou look pretty good for being sick...I, on the other hand, take on a pasty white look and refuse to allow any photos...so go mommy!
ReplyDeleteYikes, sorry to hear about your sick. Sending good juju your way to feel better immediately if not sooner.
ReplyDeleteAnd you're not lame at all. We have a Halloween business and we had ZERO Halloween decorations at our house. It's really not my holiday either but I like the financial aspect of it :).
The Russian dancer bit cracked me up. I can't believe you took pictures. Sounds like something I would do! Probably why I love you so much.
ReplyDeleteAnd girl... get yourself to the doctor for more tests! You should NOT be this sick for this long!!!
Oh but they are both SO cute! And so are you mama!
ReplyDeleteHow cute are they! I hope you feel better soon. That cannot be easy with two kids.
ReplyDeleteLori, I am litterally LOL here! My son did the same thing, teeny tiny costume that flattered him so well! LMAO!!! My husband were hysterical over it so don't feel bad! I wish I would have thought to take pictures to show him later in life! LOL!!! Miss Tessa looks so pretty (as always). Sorry you're still sick. Being sick sucks when you've got little ones to tend to and a house to run. What fun is being sick if you can't milk it! LOL! Feel better!
ReplyDeleteYou wanto to hear something interesting....I think her expressions look like you. I am not kidding. I noticed it big time in a photo ma took of her. How AWESOME is that! Love the pics!
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry that you are STILL SICK! But, it's nice to see that after weeks (if not months) of illness, you still have a sense of humor! I laughed aloud at your description of Nick's costume! SO FUNNY! And, I am so glad that you embraced it! Great Mommy, you are! And, Dave Matthews fan! Me too! I hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on not loving Halloween. We always just throw something together around here!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you are still sicky- unbelievable!! Take care of yourself my sweet. :)
The kids look precious! Feel free to email me the junk pics if it looks like I will need some comic relief this p.m!!!
You poor baby! I'm so sorry you're still icky! Hey, I think the costumes looks great!
