I was planning on posting about recent apartment searches and the difficulty I'm having, but then I remembered that the last thing I posted about was our Halloween costume choices, which we have recently changed. So instead of complaining about my hunting woes I decided to give you a costume update. (We'll just have to save the apartment hunt for another time.)
After further trying (unsuccessfully) to find costumes we all enjoyed we discovered that matching us all together right now would be very difficult. No matter what we chose someone was always unhappy with what they had to wear. There just aren't enough choices for babies. So instead of doing a matchy family look, Anthony and I are going to be super cute jesters together. And Ava is actually going to be whatever is the cutest thing on her. We're thinking Disney princess. I plan on stopping by the Disney store tomorrow and seeing which costume is the absolute cutest thing ever, and then picking that one. So I guess everyone will just have to wait for Halloween pictures to see what we finally decide on. Oh the anticipation is going to kill you!
Until next time. ;)

Capital H-A-double L-O-W-double E-N
I have an 11 month old!!! And man is it hard to blog with an 11 month old. She seems to be jealous of the computer. And I don't use it often so I'm not sure why. All I know is every time I use it she immediately climbs on my lap and gets in the way. But if I'm not using the computer she could care less what I'm doing. But thus is the life of raising a child I suppose.
Ok I said I would write about our Halloween costumes, and I guess it's a good thing it took me so long to do so, because our ideas have changed several times. It was originally going to be Anthony as Batman, me as Catwoman, and Ava as Robin. But once trying on the Catwoman costume I discovered, I cannot pull off a skin tight jumpsuit. Maybe it's my complete lack of curves. So then we went back to the drawing board. Anthony liked this baby skeleton costume they had, but I wasn't very interested in it. He liked a sheep costume but then there wasn't many options for what he could be, which was kind of the case with most of the costumes we liked. It is very hard to coordinate costumes with a man. And when we do find good ideas the mens costume turns out to be $100! Don't get me wrong I spend too much money on Halloween costumes, but I will not spend over $100 for one costume! Then I found the most perfect costume for my little one!

Ava would be a hybrid angel/devil, I would be an angel, and Anthony a devil. It is perfect! We aren't 100% on this choice as of right now, but I'm pretty sure this is it. The one bad thing about it would be that I can only get this costume online so I won't be sure on the size until I order it and it arrives. But it is our best idea thus far.
