I am forever trying to be organized and prepared, so I asked Tiger to choose a costume at the beginning of the month. She couldn't decide between a Queen or a Princess so I brought her with me to the store and let her choose a costume. The one she chose would work either way so I was feeling pretty proud of myself.
Of course whenever I think I've got my sh*t together .... sh*t happens.
During my our annual pumpkin carving party with our best buddies, my awesome little goddaughter ended up dressing up for a different Halloween party, she was going to, in front of Tiger.
She went as a devil and she looked scary all redskin and black wings etc..... it was very well done.
Now Tiger is sitting on the couch in a punk vampire costume because she wants to be scary too!
Tomorrow morning is going to be hellish. It's already 8:30 and she hasn't had a bath yet and she really needs one. She is royally wound up about wearing a costume to school. I am half way tempted to just keep her home and save myself the horror show when she has a meltdown over choosing which costume, whether or not she can handle the makeup, necklace, her hair etc.
I'm going to get up at 5:30am and get myself and her bag totally ready before I attempt to wake her up. If she would just stick to the princess plan life would be much easier. Princess doesn't require makeup and the tiara is optional and its a really pretty costume etc. Hopefully she will change her mind back in the morning as I really prefer the royal costumes.
Here is one from a couple years ago. People actually thought this was a creepy doll I bought but I assure you its just Tiger looking away from the camera.


And another year...
The High Functioning Life, why for the love of princesses, do I bother trying to plan ahead?
