So I decided on Bransyn's Halloween costume & got it! (:
He is gonna be the cutest monkey, ever!
This is what the costume looks like.



And boy, was it stressful trying to find this thing!
I went to the Halloween store in the mall, cause I knew they had it.
I looked all over for it, but couldn't find it.
So I asked someone that worked there if they had any left.
She found out, but it was size 2T.
Yeah right. Like my kid that is barely getting out of 6 month clothing is gonna fit in
a size 2T.

So I go to the other Halloween store in town.
No such luck.
They actually didn't have very many infant/toddler costumes to begin with.
(But 100's of adult ones, no joke. 2 HUGE walls covered, & about 10 isles.)

Well, I could not find ANY other cute costumes! I was determined to find this monkey.
So I went over to Partyland, they usually have a good variety of costumes.
I look at the infant section & they have the monkey I want!

But not at the price I want.
$40, not including tax.

SERIOUSLY?!?! I am not paying that much for an infant costume that my son is gonna wear once. I don't even pay that much for his outfits!

None of their other costumes seemed to be cute enough,
so I leave empty handed.

I thought about ordering online, but with all the shipping costs, it would probably be more then the $40 one.


I had pretty much given up on the monkey idea, so I began looking for other ideas.
I went back to the 2nd Halloween store I went to, & found a lion.
I was not that into it, but it was the best they had.
I was SO close to buying it, cause I was just so ready to be done with trying to find a stupid costume.

But I decided to look online again, to see if I could find any good deals.
Well, that same night was the night we went to the mall to get Bransyn & Camden's pictures done at Sears.
While the lady was getting them ready to view, we went out into the mall.
I went back into the Halloween store to see if I could find anything else in there.
(since I didn't really look for anything but the monkey the first time)

And guess what.
They must of got a whoooole new shipment of costumes within the past 3 days, cause there were about TEN monkey costumes!
And half of those were in Bransyn's size!

Ahh, I cannot tell you how freaking happy I was.
I could of swore the price was $25 the first time I went in,
but I ended up paying $30 for it.

Still to much to pay for an infant costume, in my opinion.
But I didn't care at that point.
I was just so happy that I found one.


Sooo, this is what lil man is gonna be dressed up as for his very first Halloween!
Don't worry, I'll post about a million pictures cause it looks SO cute on him ;)
