I don't know why I care so much, but I do

It isn't like I've ever thrown a huge Halloween party, or even been to a big fancy spooky bash, but for some reason Halloween is a big deal to me. Should I really be so concerned about celebrating a pagan holiday that centers on candy and terror? A holiday that has inspired many a gory movie and more than a few criminal acts? I have no answers. What I do know is that I'm already (in mid-August) trying to decide what costume to buy for Jack. He was only 11 days old for Halloween last year, so his costume was a cute little Frankenstein hat from a friend, but this year will be his first official Halloween in my book. Sure, I'll eat all his candy, he won't have a clue what is going on, and he'll probably be up too late and likely miserable by the time he can see the glow of a candle in a jack-o-lantern, but this still matters people. So help me make up my mind. Here are the pictures of my top contenders. Do not fall into the trap of judging the costume by the cuteness of the baby wearing it. I have done that for myself when shopping from catalogs with tragic results (that bra that looks so great on Heidi Klum somehow looks different on me). Cast your vote on the poll to the right. And I'm open to more suggestions, as always. As long as Jack looks adorable I'll be happy. I'll snap a few photos and start thinking about what to buy him for next year. If it matters to your vote, which I'm sure you will not cast willy-nilly but will ponder deeply, Jack is just now crawling at 10 months, so I don't think he'll be walking by Halloween. Also, he is the cutest baby on the planet with a personality as big as his very chunky thighs.
