I got my dinosaur wish this year, and it was too cute! We liked his costume because it came with the suit (tail included!), the head piece, gloves and the feet just strapped over his real shoes. Perfect! We anticipated having trouble getting him in it, since he's pretty particular about headgear and new things. We tested it out on Saturday for some Halloween photos, which was a giant FAIL. He wouldn't wear it, so we decided not to push the issue and got his hair cut instead. Which was the easiest one yet! On Sunday we tried it on again, snapped a few photos and took it off so he wouldn't get tired of it. We figured once we got to the Pollards' house, he'd see everyone else in costume and understand a little better.
We got to the Pollards and everyone was so cute in their costumes! Hayden warmed up to the idea, and since we were going outside he knew he'd need a hat and gloves so he didn't put up a fuss about those either. He was shy going to the houses for candy, and definitely confused as to why they were putting it in his bag instead of his hand, and why he couldn't eat it all then. Every few minutes he would get tired of the gloves or head, so we had a lot of on-off until he decided he was done with both and we decided that was okay. After a round on Jackson street and a few other stops, we figured the kids had enough candy and we headed back to the Pollards for some soup and yummy desserts. The kids all had a great time playing and we were grateful to be relaxing with good friends on our last holiday here in Germany!
