It's been a while since we've given KidTums her own update...so here are a few pictures from her Gymboree Halloween Party that took place today!
But first a bit of backstory...
I had absolutely no desire to dress KT up for Halloween. All costumes for her age are either incredibly hot, incredibly itchy...and most of the time both! So I bought her a nice plain black Halloween Type dress and didn't think anything of it.
Then we're at Epcot, KT decides she hates Illuminations so we run into the store. In the store she falls in love with this Pink Princess Dress. She's tugging on it, trying to get undressed...so in this moment of weakness I hand the mouse $71 and buy the dress. We go to put it on to surprise everyone after Illuminations and she freaks out and won't wear it. Now I'm pissed! I chalk it up to a bad parenting decision and forget about it.
Fast forward to this week and I decide "Dammit, she's going to wear this since I paid for it!" Robb and I do a 'test run' this morning and she's not happy, but when she gets it on and looks in the mirror she likes it. She then proceeds to scream to get it off!
Two hours later we repeat the process but this time it must stay on for the Halloween Party...well it did! I think that her seeing everyone else in similar costumes made it okay. Luckily, no one else had her dress although there were quite a few Disney Princesses!
So here's a few pix!

- Her next favorite thing is definitely Bubbles! For anyone who likes bubbles, I highly recommend buying some of the Gymboree brand bubbles. They're amazing!!!!

- Ok, at first this might not look like anything...but look carefully at the giant orange ball...it's not giant...KT milliseconds earlier had thrown it at my face! It hit me very soon after this photo was taken!
