Buying costumes for Reid is getting to be like buying stuff for our cats

Pointless. Thankless. That’s what it’s like to buy a toy for our cats. They like Boingos when they’re in the mood. They don’t like igloos, cute catprint mats to lay on even when they have catnip in them, or buttercup cat beds. Our cats will, if they are feeling indulgent, play with the Bite Bill (Gates) catnip toy and the triangles filled with catnip.

Reid, however, won’t wear the Hallowe’en costume I bought her. It’s so cute. A chicken from Old Navy. I took her to pick it out. She modelled it for Ken we got home, clucked a couple times and was fabulous. Then, I put it in the closet for a month. When I brought it out on Sunday, she was not impressed – in fact, she almost cried when I tried to put it on her. So I didn’t. Since then Ken and I have both tried on the hood of the jacket and Ken put the pants on his head. Reid was willing to put the pants on her head as well but wouldn’t let the jacket get near her. I think if I can’t convince her to put the jacket on tonight I will try and return the costume and someone who didn’t plan ahead like me and buy a costume seven weeks before Hallowe’en will be very lucky.

Reid has agreed she’ll wear her princess dress instead but she hasn’t put it back on. It probably won’t be warm enough without a coat and she’ll get it dirty at daycare but it’s not about me and what I want, right :+? We have a fleece bunny suit Grandma Joyce made last year when Reid balked at the adorable caterpillar costume I bought and which Reid wore only for photos and then under duress.  That could do us for the evening.  (If you’re wondering, last year she wore a black turtle-neck and black pants under a black net with spider webs on it wizard dress that I made from fabric I had in my basement.) I remember fondly Reid’s first Hallowe’en when she wore that pig costume and didn’t say a word about it! But I’m glad she has words and is her independent two-year old self. Maybe next year she’ll like the costume I buy. Oh, some of you are thinking I should give up on buying her costumes but you know I won’t :+)
