Kevin told me the other day, "you can't wait until fall!" And, he's right, for the most part. It's no secret I love fall and winter SO MUCH MORE than spring and summer. But, now that we have Harmon, I don't look forward to the next season so much as that means he's getting older. Time goes fast enough now without me longing for falling leaves and fleece!Anyway, there are some things I can't resist looking forward to and one is Harmon's last "first" holiday – Halloween. For the last month or so, we’ve been looking at different costumes and, yesterday, we finally made a decision and ordered one. I can't wait to see him as this little blue octopus!
Of course, he will be cute in any costume (I'm biased, OK) but, as most of you know (and can tell by his name), we like to be a bit different. Even our second choice was this cool shark! We just didn't want to go with a pumpkin or a black cat or anything basic like that, although we did consider a tiger and a mouse. We also thought about making him a pirate (since he has a pirate name – Harrrrrrrmon), but the baby pirate costume wasn't so cute.
Sooooo, expect some cute blue octopus pictures to be posted as Harmon ventures out for his first Halloween next month. We're looking forward not only to seeing him react to all this Halloween craziness but also to eating his candy! Hey, he can't have it, at least not yet!
