Wordful Wednesday. Sidekicks are Heroes Too.

by Dumb Mom on October 20, 2010

Subtlety is not one of my more prominent characteristics.

So I’m just gonna come right out and say it…

ENTER MY HAPPILY (un)HAUNTED HALLOWEEN PHOTO CONTEST WITH DUMB MOM & CELEBRATE EXPRESS or so help me FOR A CHANCE TO WIN A $25 CELEBRATE EXPRESS GIFT CARD AND A $25 iTUNES GIFT CARD TOO!.

All you have to do is take one of your cute Halloween photos like so…

And make a blog post about it (or add it to your online photo sharing gallery; I use Flickr myself) such as this.

Then grab that link and add it to the linky thingy laying all lonely like (well, it’s not totally lonely, but jeez, this is supposed to be a freakin’ party, people!) over here: Halloween Photo Contest Linky-Thingy.

I mean, why wouldn’t you enter?

It’s a RANDOM contest so you don’t have to be all photo-pro with your shots.

I just like to see them.

Because seeing pictures of other people’s kids makes me feel less guilty about forcing pictures of my kids down your throats smile.

Just like I know that, seeing pictures of my kids makes you smile too.

Especially pictures in which my kids demonstrate the importance of being a dedicated, hard worker, even when it means you are dedicated to a lifetime of not-really-super-side-kick-dom in which you do all the work, but get none of the glory…

That’s right.  #1 is Robin.  Batman’s Robin.

And, my Robin means business.  Even though his business is being Batman’s punching bag helper guy most times.  He stands guard while Batman screams at him to, “GIMME DA GUN, WOBIN! GIMME.  DA. GUUUUN!” does all the awesome…

Never mind that Batman is a pushy two year old in flip-flops…

My Robin knows that being a hero isn’t always glamorous, but it is always serious…

Even if Batman doesn’t think so…

*All costumes provided by Celebrate Express free of charge because I’m awesome for review and presentation on this here bloggity-blog.
Link your Wordful Wednesday posts here. And don’t forget to grab the button from the sidebar; you know, if you wanna!

Well, I wouldn’t really count on them for that. At least not at night. All 3 of them are scared silly in the dark!

I can’t wait for my son to enjoy Halloween!

Aside from my birthday, I think Halloween is my favorite holiday. No gifts to buy, no family to entertain. Just fun!

I love the Robin costume, but my favorite shot of the bunch is Batman’s behind. Love it!

yeah, Batman is a little rump shaker. He can’t help it! He gets it from his mom:). How have you been anyway?! Long time no see!

These are so cute. I love the last one. It reminds me of my daughter. She is ALWAYS doing that. I think the Halloween photo contest is a great idea. I haven’t managed to get anyone in their costumes yet to take pictures, but when I do, I will link up!

Whaaat?! Your daughter is a rump shaker too?! Nice. I love kids who can shake what their mama’s gave them:)!

Robin looks fantastic. SUper Serious, no doubt why he’s called The Boy Wonder. Batman’s new choice of footwear is beyond awesome. And Spiderman? Fabulous. I daresay my Spiderman would give him a good competition though.

Do you want them to go head-to-head? In a web off? That would be so. AWESOME!

How about naughty?! I think that would be the most accurate description of my 3 Dudes. Particularly that little one. He’s a pistol.

So cute! When I was little my friend and I always played Batman and Robin!

Dumb Mom October 20, 2010 at 5:23 pm

Batman and Robin, eh?! I played Gem and Rainbow Bright. I’ve always been a bit of a dive like that.

Your boys are so cute.

Okay, okay…must go find Halloween pics. Must check out when your deadline is, too. B/c I all sorts of suck at keeping up with stuff like that.

Not only are your kids’ costumes adorable (love the theme!), but your photography is fantastic!!

I didn’t do a WW post this week, but hopefully I’ll be back next week!!

I’m too tired to participate right now, but I sure did enjoy yours! I LOVE the intensity and implied concentration of the spiderman on the rock in the first picture. Nice.

So, can you tell when you post your WW? Every time I come here it’s not here. Do you post it Tuesday night or Wednesday morning/afternoon??? I came here last night & it wasn’t here & then I got busy, and I forgot for the whole day & just remembered this evening. Poop! Well, maybe next time. Have a good day.

I’m just now getting around to commenting today, but I had to take a second to tell you how fricking awesome these costumes are! I’m SOOOOOO excited for Halloween this year, I can’t even tell you.
