High up above the unsuspecting public (and where other unsuspecting public including Mummy And Friends attend church), a certain toddler identifies a need for Awesome Toddler-ness at a certain Halloween party across town…..
Pick your own caption**
** A) (Overheard in background) Calling all Awesome Toddlers, calling all Awesome Toddlers, calling all Awesome Toddlers… “Dis. Issa Job. For An Awesome Toddler.”
B) “My hair! What has happened to my hair!”
C) “The lift is taken! Where shall I swing my outfit change!”
D) “Door! Dohr!”
Quick as a flash, an Awesome Toddler (there are many, you understand, strategically situated on call throughout the otherwise not-always-child-friendly city) answers the Secret Message Only Awesome Toddlers On Call Can Hear. (What? Can happen right, WHY do you think your toddler gets that sudden purposeful look and dives for lift doors/ exit at Wisekids/ your front door?)
But….. the lift is occupied. And where are all the phone booths? What shall this Awesome Toddler do???
Thank God for curtains.
Fortunately, there are curtains. By sheer Toddler Resourcefulness (and Marvels of Home Decoration) an all-too-long Secret Halloween Costume is revealed. The ordinary toddler pushes back said folds of fabric to reveal…………..
Baby Optimus! (looks down at outfit) Dis. Is. A. Job. For. Baby Optimus! Not forgetting the comfortable shoes.
**Editor’s note: Batgirl Who Rides Scooter was entirely intended to be her official Halloween costume; however when it arrived, the fabric was a bit coarse (no wonder it had been heavily marked down on sale), and so the Miss never even tried it on. Baby Blue Monster was better and we at least got some pics of her in it, however we also thought she looked completely like a boy. And anyway it was not too easy to move about in, being a bit thick and too warm with all the fur….
And SO, Baby Optimus it is. <Strides purposefully out from behind curtains>
“S’up, Mummee?”
“Oh, Bumblebee’s still in Sunday school? Ok, Baby Optimus shall wait. And have a go on the coffee machine in the lounge area…” (Yes, high above an unsuspecting public)
And THEN they’re buckled in and on a mission!
They arrive at the Wisekids bash…….
Only to find a Monster Alien Spider several times bigger than Summoned Awesome Toddler waiting to be bashed about with a foam lightstick (or dragged around. Monster Alien Spiders are apparently not too fussy)
Baby Optimus enlists a little extra help (especially with Bumblebee now off making spider Oreos with Friend)

A) “Perfect balance, nice length…. Yes, I think this one’ll do”
B) “Light! Lie-hht! Lie-hhhhht!”
C) “Eat your heart out, Obi-Wan”
Where’s he got to now?
Editor’s note: There must’ve been like, 30-50 spiders of all sizes in the multi sensory room; the small ones were a bit too realistic-creepy…
A brief recon with Bumblebee who is making plasma cannon signals over the music…
And….. “Got the hairy bugger! Hah!”
With Monster Alien Spider vanquished, Baby Optimus rejoins the unassuming party.
Where she proceeds to shake a rattle to the tune of Ghostbusters…
Even as Bumblebee returns from Spider Oreo Scarfing With Friend and jumps in front of iPhone…
Anymore Monster Alien Spiders need vanquishing? Hm.
And so Bumblebee and Optimus photo op for a fan…
And with that, HAPPY HALLOWEEN TO ONE AND ALL!!!!!
ps: Would totally recommend this kind of printed jumpsuit, which Rockstar also wore; you can get them quite cheap on Amazon.com and they’re relatively cool and comfortable for rockstars to party in…
Though Baby Optimus wore her head gear for all of 2 minutes because it was wayy to small…
Happy Halloween! Haha, I totally did not expect baby optimus prime. Wisekids bash seems to be very fun! Miss Rockstar and Rockstar must have enjoyed themselves very much.
Yes they really loved it, though the singing n music bits were a bit too crowded…
I ordered Baby Optimus when Batgirl on Scooter didnt work out, you know me well enough through this blog to have guessed what I originally intended actually..
