One last WIP peek at my Halloween costume before my full costume reveal on Halloween: For the first time, my costume includes a big tail! 💛🧶🐢
Happy #TortoiseButtTuesday! Mom reshaped my Halloween costume to properly cover my ticklish bum! Success! 🙌🧶💛🐢🍑
Halloween costume progress update: Mom has almost gotten the shape of my shell just right, but she says my ticklish bum is proving much harder to cover than expected!
This year, for the first time ever, my Halloween costume will not be round! For my first ten Halloweens, I have been something round, from a pumpkin for my first Halloween to BB-8 for my fourth Halloween to Jack Shellington two years after that to Nintendo Kirby last year!
Mom says my round shell is a deceptively hard shape to match exactly, so she keeps making me sit for costume fittings. I better be getting radicchio for all this!
🍂 Happy October! 🎃 Spooky season is here! 👻🦇
Mom helped me pick out a special yarn for my Halloween costume this year: A gorgeous bright gold fit for a king! Now for the most important question: Is it CHOMP-able, too? 🧶💛👀🐢
Mom's second attempt at my Halloween costume was much rounder and fit perfectly on top of my shell!
Mom's first attempt at my Halloween costume wasn't round enough, but I still looked fabulous in it!
Halloween costume update: How am I supposed to CHOMP my costume when it's behind me?! 💖👀🐢😤
This year, my Halloween costume is all about yarn in my sweetie Mango's favorite color: Pink!
Mom has wanted to make this costume for me since I met Mom, but she has been waiting for me to finish growing first so I can keep wearing this costume forever. Can you guess what my costume this year will be?
Halloween this year will be extra spooky: Tomorrow night will be lit by a blue moon, the second full moon in a calendar month! 🔵🌕🦇 Beware, this blue moon is very hungry... 😋👀
Costume fitting snapshots: This year’s shaggy blue yarn doesn’t hold its shape the same way as the yarn Mom usually uses for my costumes, so at first, Mom was worried my costume wouldn’t fit right. But this blue yarn unexpectedly is a bit stretchy, which means it snaps snugly over the edges of my shell to fit me perfectly!
Inspecting the progress on my Halloween costume: This is sufficiently round and shaggy, but where are the noms?! You promised me noms with my costume this year, Mom!
Halloween costume crafting update: The white felt Mom originally picked out for my costume this year isn’t going to work after all, so we are switching to white yarn. I highly approve of this change: This white yarn is delicious! 🧶🤍🐢😋
(Mom pulled ALL of the yarn out of my mouth right after these photos?!? Mom is so mean! 😫)
I got a special birthday delivery from @wafflesworld! Waffles, Mango, Torty, Pea, and Pick found a dino-mite card just for me! Brunhilda and I marveled at all the glittery rainbow dinosaurs together, especially the blue and green triceratops. Brunhilda says someday she’s going to get a dye job to look just like that!
Waffles & co. also sent me a present so Brunhilda and I can have our own backyard staycation. I wonder what it could be?
We got a package from friend (Iri)epsi (@epsifawnshawn)! Friend (Iri)epsi always sends us such beautiful packages! I wonder what could be inside this one?
Shello, friends! We have good news and bad news for you today.
👻 Good news #1: Brunhilda is getting a Halloween costume to go with my costume this year! I helped cut the pink cloth for Brunhilda’s costume and made myself a big cape out of the rest!
😞 The bad news: My winter blues have hit early this year, so unfortunately, we will not have a Halloween video this year. Mom never forces me to do anything I don’t want to!
🎃 Good news #2: Winter blues make me too grumpy for long videos, but I am always up for photos! So we will still be sharing lots of photos of me in my Halloween costume...starting tomorrow! Stay tuned!
〰️➿〰️
* Tumblr is still eating our individual photo captions, so while the code monkeys are trying to sort that out, captions below:
- All of this pink cloth is left over from Brunhilda’s costume?
- What a pretty pink! It would be a shame for this all to go to waste...
- Say shello to my new cape!
It’s Halloween costume fitting time! Mom’s first attempt at my costume didn’t quite work, but her second try is looking much better! Can you guess what I am going to be?
Hint: Nomming is required as part of my costume!
