Months ago I asked Henry if he wanted to be Angus Young for Halloween. He said yes. Oddly enough, apparently his dad asked him the same thing. That creeps me out so much, you have no idea. Anyway, I started gathering the items he would need for the perfect Angus Young costume. Then, when I was at Costco one day, I saw an Optimus Prime costume. I decided to buy it because I know kids sometimes change their minds and I didn't want him to not have options. Also, Angus Young wears shorts and it might be too cold to be out in shorts. As I was bringing in my Costco crap that day, Henry got a glimpse of his Optimus Prime costume and sure enough, he decided he wanted to be Optimus Prime. I was okay with that but still worked on getting the Angus Young stuff together. A couple weeks ago he told me he was going to be Angus Young AND Optimus Prime. At the same time. I wasn't sure how that would work but wasn't upset because it solved the uncovered legs in cold weather issue.
Last night Henry told me he wanted to be Curious George. He found his costume from last year in his closet and he just had to be Curious George. So. I spent not a ton of money, but not a little either, on Angus Young costume. I think the Optimus Prime costume was $15. And he didn't want either of them. I told him Curious George didn't fit anymore but he insisted on trying it on and goddamn that costume fits him like a glove.
Defeated, I asked him to at least try on the Angus Young costume and he excitedly agreed, only if he could put Curious George right back on. Fine.
It's a good thing this kid is cute...
