Because I've been way too busy working on Halloween themed clothes for the kids.
And due to my crappy photo taking, you can't really tell but the fabric for her skirt is an awesome 30's/ 40's reproduction of witches, cauldrons and black cats. She's been wearing it every chance she gets. It was originally supposed to be a jumper but low and behold, you need to buy a lot of fabric when the pattern is directional. Gee, who knew.
For the little man, I made some bat pants from some fabric I bought on super sale last year. For my first try at pants I think they turned out pretty well even if they look a little MC Hammerish. Next time I'll just trace off a current pair of pants rather than following the pattern.
Okay, so I am working on Maisy's costume. If you can't tell, she is going to be a witch. Luckily my mom spotted this jumper/ shirt combo that works perfectly as little witch costume.
I just find it really funny that it's actually supposed to be "high" fashion.

Hallowtime! (um, that was meant to be a witty play on words, merging Halloween and Hammer Time. As you were...)
omg, arlo's pants ROCK.
Seriously, 2 legit 2 quit man! Don't ask me what I've made...the answer is bupkis.
High fashion witches! Awesome! My little guy wants to be a pirate (easy) so I'm a very lucky Mom. Except for the sword part. Sigh. ~A :-)
I'm gonna have MC hammer stuck in my head all day. Alternating with the theme song from full house. But I love Miss M's skirt. It turned out soooooo cute!
Oh My goodness. Such cute outfits on TOTALLY ADORABLE kidlets! :) Quick Arlo, to the bat mobile! :)
Oh my god! Maisy has the same haircut I had at her age only she's cuter in it!! Our hair was even the same color. Do you think you and I might be related?
Is that a tag with the OLSEN TWINS on it? that is funny! All I can say is that Maisy looks absolutely squeezable in the outfit and the Olsens? Not so much.
You've been a busy lady!
