OK, Kellen and Bonnie both have Halloween costumes that fit my parameters:
1) Can't cost any money
2) Can't be any trouble
3) Can't require any creativity on my part
4) Has to be comfortable. I don't want to be putting on and taking off parts of the costume because they're itchy, etc.
Since I plan on taking the kids trick or treating (remember, it's a small town) and then to the football game, I'd love to have something cute for Noelle.
But it has to fit my stringent qualifications.
Any suggestions from those out there who are more right-brained than I am (wait, that doesn't take much)?
Oh, and Kellen will be going as Tigger (hand-me-down costume) and Bonnie will be a cheerleader (already had the outfit).

I love this... what a challenge. Ok I an easy one would be a ghost: take a sheet and cut out eyes, etc and she would be a good one bc she could just lie there. A pretty funny one would be a punk rocker girl: take some socks cut out the feet and make leg warmers, take a jean jacket or skirt that you already have and either cut it up or lean alone, make her hair spunky, draw a tattoo on her and tie die a shirt (very easy to do) and get some sun glasses. Princess Leia (SP?) would be cute too... white sheet for the dress, rope for the belt but you would have to go buy some cheap braides and make buns on them and put them on a head band and then she would look just like her. If you need more ideas let me know. HOpe that helps.
I could send you Norah's mermaid costume...not sure if it would fit since she was 9 months old when she wore it...but we could try.
I'm pretty sure it wouldn't cost too much to mail it since there's not much to it and I could probably fit it in a padded envelope. And Norah thought it was pretty comfy. I'd even pay the postage to get it to you as long as I can get it back from you at some point. Let me know if you're interested. Really, it's free (you could just return it the next time you were in B/CS), it would be no trouble at all, require no creativity on your part, and comfortable. I think that covers all of your parameters. You can check my blog archives for a picture to make sure it isn't too risque...that might be the only problem ;)
Take a white t-shirt or onsie and some markers and draw a tie and collar, maybe even a pocket protector and pens and turn her into office worker. Or put her any collegiate or sports attire and she can be the next coach on the horizon (I heard Dallas might be looking soon. :)
