Yesterday Mojo and I went to Target to find his Halloween costume. He wants to be Spiderman so I figured I could get that costume at any time. Of course, I got there and all the Spidermen costumes in his size were gone. So I must continue looking.

While there I saw some education thing to teach the ABC's. It had one of the characters Mojo likes so I asked if he wanted me to get it. He looked at it and said, "Is that about the ABC's?" I said Yes and he told me, "NO, I hate the ABC's." He then proceeded to explain to me that he will never learn the ABC's. I told him this would make kindergarten difficult and indeed he would never go any further in his schooling.

While searching for the elusive Spiderman costume may take a little time, Cookie's costume wish is probably beyond my ability. He wants to be Sonic the Hedgehog. I went on-line to seek the coveted Hedgehog only to find that although at one point they made the costume it has been discontinued. So I went on Ebay thinking maybe someone was selling one. Sure enough, there was about 10 items. Some were not even full costumes, but just that plastic cheesy mask with the elastic. To my amazement, none of the items, not even just the mask was selling for less than $ 30.00. Alot were up close to $75. Although, I would love for Cookie to be Sonic--no way am I paying that much.

So now I'm trying to figure out if I can some how cobble together a Sonic costume. I figure it could not look any worse than the Costume they were selling. Although people may believe that Cookie is some sort of giant blue dinosaur unless I put a sonic name tag on it.
