Just whipping up a last minute Halloween costume for this weekends Halloween celebrations. • The main costume a viper snake is no where near complete, so GrandKat to the rescue of ordering an @aeromaxtoys astronaut suit on @amazon while we whipped together the helmet, space pack and boots. • Why didn’t we just order everything? Two reasons, one because of cost/bank account and the more important reason- I believe that ever costume should be made at least 50% by the parent and kid. It is a bonding experience. One which I remember fondly doing with my parents. • We would head down to the different districts in NYC to get supplies from the fashion district to the electronics district. We were creative with our costumes. I love those memories. • So yes, this year my kid is going to have two costumes. And yes, I did ask if we could just substitute the astronauts costume for the snake costume. The answer was a hard no because we had talked and planned so much it would be a shame not to do it. • Let’s see how the astronauts helmet turns out. It might be a little lumpy which is ok because it was made with love. . . . #halloweencostume #handmade #motherandsonmoments #papermache #astronaut #imagination #lifeofaboy #creatingmemories #costume #adventure #childhood #momlife

Saturday afternoon at the Pumpkin Patch. Somewhere between childhood and zombie life, these kids have the look. • A perfect afternoon at the local farm patch with good friends. I am pretty sure these kids are ready to make a music album. . . #halloween #autumn #albumcover #playdate #cornfield #tocool #momdate #chillin #socal #socalstyle

I don’t normal get all excited for Halloween month but I thought why not— dyed (semi) my hair blue. Well the almost white hairs turned a steel blue. I am totally digging it. My son has given me 👍, my husband can’t wait for it to wash out. • Sometimes you got to step outside your comfort zone. #momlife #bluehair #notmycomfortzone #denleader #thisisme

Checking in with my son. At least once a week, I like to have a date with my son. It can be anything from taking a hike, going from a bike ride or grabbing a milkshake. We talk about things. Sometimes it’s philosophical, sometimes it’s silly. These little get together gives us both time to unwind and learn about each other. We also talk before bed. I have just learned that sometimes he needs more time to open up. Today he spoke about how kids in his class were saying mean things about a third grader because he was a heavy set boy. I asked my son what did you do.? He told me he didn’t want to be part of the conversation, so he backed away. I told him his response was both good and not so good. We talked about how doing nothing but standing by, not speaking up or walking away does not help solve the problem. We talked about what to do if these boys talk like this again. Speak up, stand by the person being teased then walk away and redirect your energy. • • A lot can be said over milkshakes. • • #mothersondate #growingup #milkshakes #agentlemangrows #wifemotherdaughterself #momadvice #momlistens #motherson #conversations #antibulling #standupforothers
