Did you realize we're only 18 days away from Halloween?? What? EIGHTEEN DAYS. Crap. As a family, we're actually almost 75% ready. Hopper's costume was bought last year on sale when I thought I was buying it for a few years from now, but: turns out--it fits He-Who-Grows-Too-Damned-Fast. It's a six-armed, 3-eyed blue alien (and I'd like to point out, it doesn't make him scream: BONUS!). Sam is going as a spaceman/astronaut. We're making it from scratch since you can't buy costumes for people who are 6'7. Bastards. And me? eh, I'm the 25% incomplete part... The ORIGINAL plan was for me to go as a blue alien mama with a little baby blue alien bursting from my stomach, only not gross. Cute Baby Alien Birth. What? Shutup, it made sense at the time. HOWEVER, things don't seem to be gelling quite as I'd hoped. I have the cute baby alien and a reasonable set up (see: 6.5mth pregnant belleh), but... yeeeeahhhh. I dunno. I may be looking for a new plan. A plan that I have to somehow make work in the next two weeks that are also occupied by a BIG FAMILY WEDDING coming up next weekend. So, what should I be? A planet? ohhhhh, I could go as Saturn...that might be cute. Or what else? Please don't suggest Jabba the Hut or I'll have to hunt you down. I need something space/alien related because we're cute like that. thoughts?

I think you should just leave your belly out and paint something on it...or go as Juno...lol...and btw-Tell Emily and Travis I said congrats!! CES
You could be the spaceship. Dress in silver/gray. Somehow I am sure you could decorate the front of your shirt to look like a ship or a hatch door where your belly bump is.
I love the alien belly thing! Not too gross, though. You don't want to scare the child.
Rachel--the last time I was pregnant, my sister told me to glue toy airplanes to myself and go as an aircraft carrier. you guys are so not funny. :)
