The Halloween Survival Guide

In true FTM (first time mom) form, I am late with this post.

So, we made it through our first Halloween. I put together a DIY Agnes costume, and it was a hit!

Onesie: Carter's / Overalls: Old Navy / Socks & Sneakers: Amazon
The best part of the costume was the unicorn. I bought the official unicorn online and transformed it into a backpack by sewing 4 strings to it. 

Here is the finished product on A:



I mentioned before I was going to start a tradition of sorts by making 'Survival Kits' for the Tiny Hipster each holiday. I will break it down in the next post (which will hopefully happen sooner rather than later).

1. Find a place you are comfortable with. I chose an outdoor mall 5 minutes away from my house to avoid a long drive with an exhausted infant. I live in an apartment, so I had to go elsewhere, but if your neighborhood is trick or treating friendly, it's the best option.
2. Bring enough pumped milk/formula for the time you will be there.
3. DON'T FORGET A CHANGE OF CLOTHES! - Costumes are cute, but accidents happen. Thankfully A didn't have one of her notorious poop explosions, but I had a halloween themed onesie and pant set ready to go
4. Eat all the candy :)
