Baby's First Halloween: The Pressure is Real

Let's start with the tiny terror, I mean, your adorable baby. First Halloween, first costume, first photo op. The pressure is on, right? You could go classic with a little pumpkin or ghost, but where's the fun in that? How about a taco? I mean, who doesn't love a tiny, edible baby? Or maybe a banana? Slip them into a yellow onesie and a leaf headband, and voila! Instant fruit salad.

But wait, there's more! Did you know that in 2016, a baby shark costume was so popular, it sold out worldwide? That's right, folks. Babies were swimming up to parents' legs, ready for a belly rub, all while mom and dad were trying to keep their cool in the face of the great baby shark craze.
