October Fest

When you're a mom and it's October, there's only one thing you fuss about.

HALLOWEEN!

I had fond memories of Halloween when I was a child.  My frustration was never going to Ayala Alabang for trick or treat.  I heard a house there made their maid and driver pose as Jasmine and Aladdin on top of their house in a carpet.  Is this true or urban legend?  Anyways, as Mia's mom, I have taken it upon myself to make sure she makes the most out of her childhood with all her Halloween memories.  Lahat nang pwedeng puntahan, pupuntahan.



2007: 2 months old.  She went out to get her candies!



2008: Awkward bald stage after the first birthday

Mia as a Japanese waitress (see she even has a name tag).  Unfortunately, her yaya had to carry her around since she barely knew how to walk then so noone got to see her tray of plastic sushis.

2008: Random stuff lola bought in SM. Ignore lola's untrimmed eyebrows! Haha.



2008: BatMia

She didn't go out of the house in this costume but I thought this deserves blog space.  Haha.

2009: All out! Baby Bop

This was a super hot costume.  You could feel the hot air inside her costume.  My daughter is such a trooper or maybe she just wanted to impress me and not complain!

2009: Minnie Mouse

2010: Aurora

2010: Flight stewardess

Mia did not like this costume.  She wore this to school.  All her friends were princesses and fairies and she was something she had no concept of.

2011: She changed already :S

She is super kinda stuck in the princess stage right now.  Mainstream princess.  Being a stage mom that I am, I keep on telling her, she won't win any prizes if we just keep on doing Disney princesses.  I told her she can be a princess, a blue one!  Princess Neytiri from Avatar.  Unfortunately, it's not sitting well with her.  I am nowhere near convincing her.

Her tito already got her a costume, but we have blue paint just in case she allows mama.  Haha.
