That's hilarious about the pitchfork. When Brenna was little I wanted to dress her as an angel then have Owen and Meagan wear devil costumes, since she was my "angel" baby (I swear, she never cried or complained when she was a baby) and they were the spawn of satan as toddlers.
The only of the kids to dress up before they were 1 was Nora since she was 6 1/2 months old. The kids got extra candy for her... which they ate...but she stayed in the stroller.
I don't have pictures, but Owen and Meagan both wore the same orange GAP t-shirt we had bought for Meagan when she was a baby. It had a pumpkin on the front of it and it was really warm (especially for Chicago) those two Halloweens. Meagan was 4 months old and Owen was 1 month old their first Halloweens. To demonstrate the point about their size differences... the shirt was a 6 month size and it fit both of them exactly the same at 4 months and 1 month, lol.
Another note on that shirt: All 5 of my kids wore it. It's one of the best purchases we made. Got it on sale at GAP using a gift card we got after Meagan was born. We paid $0, but I think it was $6 for the shirt or something. We had a yellow one, too, and regret never going back to buy the rest of the rainbow because those shirts were awesome. 10 years later the picture had faded, but the fabric was in perfect condition when Nora wore them. We also had a plain GAP t-shirt that a neighbor gave us. It went through 6 kids (mine and hers) and still looked brand new.
