I am at a crossroads. I am getting a lot of conflicting advice and I am just not sure how to proceed. No, I'm not trying to pursue a PhD. No, we're not moving to Alaska to work the pipeline. And no, I'm not pregnant (sorry, Mom). My dilemma is much, much bigger than that. I don't know what Morgan should be for Halloween.
The last three Halloweens have consisted of the following:
2008: Morgan had barely (and I mean barely) transitioned out of the blob stage. We put her in jammies that said "It's my first Halloween, don't scare me." She threw up on them 5 minutes later.
2009: As you can see, I am already having issues making up my mind. We had a little two-for-one special that year, as I got to dress Morgan up once for daycare and again for trick-or-treating. Ironically, she also threw up at daycare while wearing the farmer outfit.
2010: Morgan was just learning all about the animals and my mom scooped up this little gem in some last-minute bidding frenzy. In a related note, if you ever need an item on e-bay, call my mom. She will not let you down.
2011: So where do we go from here? Apparently, there's this weird thing about child development that I am just now getting used to. These little people have opinions. I have asked Morgan repeatedly over the last several weeks what she wants to be for Halloween. Her answer, every time - "A shoe, Mom. I want to be a shoe." Really? That's all you got? I think we've set the bar a bit high to start dressing you as an accessory.

Oh my goodness... Those adorable pictures bring back such fun memories! Yes, it is true I am the ultimate bidder/winner on e-bay. Some items have not been "winners" but the costumes I won for Morgan and Collin sure were ;0) Don't fret Amy... She will be adorable in anything - even as a big shoe! Love you Morgan xoxoxo
