As a parent, there are only a few years where you have unfettered control. Kids are barely one by the time they start voicing their opinions (at least, my 18-month-old certainly doesn’t hold back when he’s presented with a food or movie he doesn’t want). So when it comes to Halloween and babies, it is one of the few times you get to decide the level of cuteness (or hilarious or scary) you want your kid to be without a fight.
If you’re having a hard time deciding on what you would like your sweet kiddo to be this Halloween, check out this list of some of our most favorite baby costumes out there. Whether you’re looking for a matching infant-and-mom halloween costume, a full family costume, or just a cute newborn costume, we’ve got you covered.
And enjoy your agency this year, moms and dads. Soon you’ll be wading through the sea of change-your-mind-every-minute costumes like the rest of us.

Hogwarts Student

Werewolf
Howl at the moon with this classic, adorable little costume. Though no werewolf has ever looked cuter, this little outfit is the perfect addition to a family costume. Channel Little Red Riding Hood or wear a tattered dress to look like you got mauled by the were-baby. I mean, is it that far off from real life?
