Dress-up Time

The Fabulous Five

 Keira: Ballerina 

 I know I am cheesy but

I just had to make leg warmers

for her to wear.

We also have to thank Larry's coworker

who purchased the cute crowns.

She insisted that every girl needs one.

Keira wasn't so happy to sit still to pull

up her short curly hair into a bun,

but she decided it was worth the

wait so she could put on mom's

make-up!

Daniel:  Monkey

This costume just fits him.

As in, he is a monkey.

He acts like a monkey.

He loves bananas like a monkey.

And he even smells like one

sometimes, too!

Dan was so good about keeping

his hood on and holding on

to his plastic banana.

 Sydney:  Cat

But not just any old cat.

A cool cat.

One so cool,

she was inspired to walk

around the house singing

a blue-jazzy Elvis rendition of...

"I am a singing kitty witty,

meeeeoooowww."

Into her tail like a microphone.

It was hysterical.

She is getting too cool for most costumes

but was very happy with this

simple ears, nose/whiskers, tie

and tail.

All grown up!

 Emma:  Ballerina

This costume included Emma's

favorite things:

pink, skirt, crown and mom's make up.

She's not hard to please.

But you know it's the missing

front teeth

that are so darling.

Ballerina Twins

 Benjamin:  Optimus Prime

Transformer

This very very BOY

of ours was just happy

to have anything that involved

superhuman powers

and beating down the bad guys.

He really wanted to be a Power Ranger

but I am happy to say

we couldn't find that costume.
