KJ and Cbug’s costume choices for their costume parade at school this fall were pretty simple- they would be Buzz and Woody, of course. The tricky party was who would be each. On any given day, one or the other is the current favorite- it changes faster than I can keep track, but of course almost always they both want the same one. I, being the amazing mother that I am, anticipted this possible problem, so I made them decide who would be which character the night before school- Brilliant. In theory. They both chose- no problems at all. KJ wanted Woody. Cbug wanted Buzz. Super easy. Or so they lead me to believe- should have known better. The next morning KJ pitched a WHOPPER of a fit. I mean a real DOOZY. Because Cbug had on the Buzz costume. We went round the circle and back or him wearing Woody or nothing- totally his choice and we just left him alone with it. Then, approximately 2 minutes before he would have been late for school, he suddenly completely changed his whole demeaner, requested a different hat than the one that actually came with the Woody costume and that fixed everything. Four-Year-Olds. Sheesh.
Buzz and Woody…to the rescue!
Cbug’s precious class of three-year-olds on the left and KJ’s amazing class of pre-Kers on the right. Such fun!
We went to the stockyards that night for a failed attempt at some trick-or-treating. But at least the kids looked cute. Note that for this event, Buzz and Woody swaped costumes. No problem. Again. Sheesh.
To stick with the TS3 motif, we added a little cheerleader from the toddler room at the Sunnyside Daycare. Herself an adorable mence, who often wreaks havock on her brothers toys- this was not a difficult costume for Lou to pull off.
Oh how I love them! Tantrums, mischeif, costumes and all.
