Sean decided he was going to be St. Paul...
Reilly wanted to go as Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha...
Kathryn has always said St. Rose was her favorite...
But what do you do with a 4-yr old, who insists on being a dragon?
Simple. You let him be part of his brother's St. Michael costume "ensemble," and suddenly it all makes sense...
(Sean, always the stickler for the rules, said, "So basically you're letting Thomas dress up as Satan for the All Saints' Day party?".... OK, technically I did, but it kept the peace, was a really cute "two for one" costume, and spared me a lot of grief and heartache...)

Oh Ouiz, they are simply too cute!! I can't believe you're even thinking about going to a parish party with a new baby, oh my!! I hope you got to stay home with the little one, and the kiddos are all postitively adorable :) Blessings!
I love St. George and the dragon! And wow, your Sean must be quite a kid. :)
Thank you... and yes, I did wind up going to the party, but I kept her in her car seat, completely covered up. I didn't necessarily *want* to go... (long story...)
You go girl! I'm guessing that you were instrumental in getting this idea off the ground at the parish?
LOVED St. Michael and the Dragon!
Ah, suburban cowgirl, how well you remember our parish! *grin*
I kinda felt guilty about NOT going...
Come on back to OLMC :)
Great costumes; you're a mom with a will to get all this done and with a brand new baby at home, too! Bless you!
Thanks for your encouraging words about multiple c-sections on my blog! Glad to see all your sweet kids in saint's costumes.
I found your blog via a comment on another blog and have subsequently spent a good chunk of time reading through some of your past posts. The way share details of your daily life make me feel as if I really know you.
I especially liked the acorn craft idea. I know my girls will love it.
I will definitely be back. :)
Way to go!
So cute! Great job, mom!
Thank you, but they really did a good portion of the work themselves! Sean in particular was thrilled with the idea that he got to use a knife, wood, and whatever else he needed to make his sword! (ah, boys...)
