Banana

A few months before Halloween, when they first started putting out the costumes, I was told about this costume and even though I know Jacob was growing like a weed, I couldn’t resist. As a result of not having any feet, I had about 10 shots before he was fed up with the whole deal. In my defence, when I bought it, he was neither crawling properly nor pulling up on furniture, how was I to know that by Halloween he’d be trying to walk by himself? Honestly.




The idea of it cracks me up—some people say that I shouldn't call my kids bananas but, hey, yellow on the outside, white on the inside? I’m a realist and I can handle the racial implications. Besides, have you ever seen a cuter banana?
