ready for fall

I'm in a "Fall-y" mood today.
Maybe it's because this rain has made this August week a little more bearable than usual.
I have already been looking up Halloween costumes.. Yes, I know.. really early,

BUT, I love this time of year. And, we spend so much of it outside because of the nice weather.

So, I have found a few cute costumes online, and I just do not know what Lauren will dress up this year. If she could tell me, it would make it so much easier. And NO, she LOVES Elmo, but there is not ONE (in my opinion) cute Elmo costume out there for little girls. So, she will not be Elmo. (Sorry Sesame Street and co.)
Here are my top picks:(blue sky fairy found at buycostumes.com)
(ladybug found at buycostumes.com)
(fairy costume at gymboree.com)(tulip fairy found at buycostumes.com)
(bumblebee found at gymboree.com)
Two cute costumes for a RIDICULOUS amount of money: at Potterybarnkids.com:

The easy fallback costume: (doctor at buycostumes.com)
And, the FOUR costumes that would be, well, just mean of me:
(fries found at potterybarnkids.com)

Cute Raggedy Ann- just too much for a toddler (buycostumes.com)
JUST PLAIN MEAN for ANY TODDLER living in the heat of TX
Teletubbies Dipsy at buycostumes.com
AND ELMO! Hahahahahaha (buycostumes.com)
So, after all the costume pictures, My favorites are in order: the ladybug, bumblebee, fairy, and the rest of the fairies. What do you think?

I think she would look so cute in the bumblebee costume!

fairy is adorable. If you do decide on one of these costumes, I found this site that has 10% off everything in the store called Dizguise Costumes. Go to www.dizguise.com

Ooops - the coupon code is RETURN10. I've used it a couple times now.

I like the blue fairy! But I like the bumblebee and the lady bug too! Lauren will look so cute in any of them!

I love the ladybug... but then again I love ladybugs! I'm hoping our church does it's annual fall festival so I get to dress Madeline up! I want to make her a Raggedy Ann dress - kinda like a costume, but not so busy!! If you want Lauren as Raggedy Ann I could always make two!

I love the lady bug costume from Buycostumes.com. I wanted to do Maddyson like that when she was 2 but by the time I went to get it, it was sold out. I think Lauren would make a cute ladybug!
