for those of you who celebrate halloween what are your children thinking about dressing as this year? or what are you dressing your children as (depending on age)?

my mom always made halloween costumes for us. granted her sewing abilities were much greater, so i try to come up with ideas i can make on my own. last year i made my son a dalmation costume out of a hooded sweatsuit and black felt (i hot glued the felt spots to the outfit). this year he is really into thomas the tank engine, so i am making him a train costume out of a box. it is shaping up really cute. i had to start early to allow for mistakes. my daughter is only one, and i don't know if she will even be able to stay awake for halloween, but i don't know what she is going to be. if you have any cute suggestions they would be appreciated.
