Halloween

So far, I've had a few ideas for Aden for Halloween this year. Ultimately, I think we'll just keep checking out Cater Tot until we find something suitable ... since there's no way in hell I'm buying a brand new costume from a store.

I got a brilliant idea this morning, though ... a definitely possibility for Halloween this year: Handy Manny. It's one of his favorite TV shows, and I think it's something we could easily put together.

For those who don't know, here is Handy Manny:

We could find him a plain red hat, like this one: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000K3LY5C/ref=asc_df_B000K3LY5C911373?smid=APCG45FOXJN54&tag=dealtmp1-20&linkCode=asn&creative=380341&creativeASIN=B000K3LY5C We could even get lucky and find one second hand, I bet.

Then, he could wear a green t-shirt (which I'm sure he has somewhere), or his Handy Manny iTalk t-shirt. I tried to find a picture of it, but I can't.

Obviously, any pair of jeans would work for it, so we're set there.

We could find some yellow gloves second hand too, I'm sure. Like he'd even keep them on anyway.

He's got a pair of brown boots he could probably wear, so that's good too.

Now for the tools ... hm ... It would be perfect if I could find this: http://www.shopping.com/xPO-Fisher-Price-Fisher-Price-Handy-Manny-s-Talkin-Tool-Box but we would have to see. I haven't seen them at work, but I could probably see if we had something similar. Obviously he wouldn't carry that around ... but it might work.

Just an idea. What does anyone think about that? Hm ...
