Happy Halloween from our COL-LION

If you would have asked me a year ago what Collin would be for Halloween you could probably have  guessed my answer..... A Clemson Tiger. 

But then this little boy was born and over the first couple of months our first nick named developed while spelling Collin's name everyday for him.
He quickly became our C-O-L-LION

So I found an Lion outfit on Amazon, and placed it in my basket.  
Starting at $35 dollars-
I watched it and watched it until it dropped to $22.
I quickly purchased it with some remaining Baby Amazon Gift Cards that we had.
Yes I know this was a splurge... but I would do it again.

Collin ended up wear his costume multiple times. 

The first was at his school the Friday before Halloween.   This was the night he caught his first cold and was not feeling well.
= FAIL


The second was actually on Halloween.
My parents came over and we went by our friends house and "Trick or Treated" at a couple of houses.
He slowly started warming up to the outfit.






The third time was a day I invited all my neighborhood mom's over for a play date.  
This was a blast and trying to get a group shot was absolutely fun!
Ha ha you have to love children.  

And yes that is a new playroom for Collin- more to come on that later.



The the weekend after Halloween my hubby decided to take a couple shots while I was out with my girlfriend.  



Lion, Tiger and Bears
Oh MY!



I loved his costume and am so glad it worked out.....
We had a very good and happy 1st Halloween.
