My bro dressed as Captain America, Ashford was a Sea Turtle!
He didn't much like the headpiece, but he loved to 'flap his wings,' which I believe were supposed to be the turtle feet. They didn't much look like feet. It was cute.
When you spend $40 on a Pottery Barn baby costume (thanks, mom!) you kind of want them to wear it for a while, right?
We kept it on him as long as we could, but it ultimately got all uh, moist from his drool and so that was that.
Captain America....the kids LOVED this! They could see him all the way down the street and were so excited to get to our house. He was hiding a beer behind his shield. I didn't actually hide mine, now that I think about it. Oh well, I'll be known as the heavy drinker of Russet Street.
This is the only halfway decent picture of me and baby, this kid did not smile for a picture all day!
Maybe I will dress him in the costume for Thanksgiving and try the photos again. Wasn't there a story about a Thanksgiving turtle? If not, there should be.
PS - have you guys tried picmonkey? I'm obsessed with the 'Dusk' effect!
Love it. Ash looked adorable as did your bro :-)
ReplyDeleteSO CUTE!!! There is seriously nothing more adorable than a baby in costume, right?
ReplyDeleteVery cute ... could be a Saturday around the house outfit ... hahaha
ReplyDeleteAdorable and WOW you look like your mom!
ReplyDeleteHe is so VERY CUTE!! Not just in that outfit. He is really just a beautiful baby.
ReplyDeleteI should have stolen that baby when I had the chance! ;) he is so stinkin' CUTE! And I love the pic of your mom and Ash on the bench with your bro's leg, that'll be a family classic. So cute :)
ReplyDeleteI've been known to be the "lady that drinks wine on her porch while passing out candy." I'm not ashamed to admit it.
ReplyDeleteAsh is so cute. I love the costume and you look so pretty, momma. Also, the picture f your brother on the front porch is priceless. Looks like an awesome first Halloween for the littlest guy.
ReplyDeleteHe is SO handsome! Wow, the turtle costume is amazing. I can't believe how fast he's growing - and I can't wait to see the kitchen!
ReplyDeleteBeer while handing out candy-guilty. Love that little sea turtle. You and your mom look so much alike! Pic monkey rocks!!! Could this comment be anymore random?? Happy belated Halloween, mama!
ReplyDeletePickmonkey is the bomb and your baby is adorable in his turtle costume! He reminds me of that turtle from Finding Nemo... Crush?
ReplyDeleteMaxwell (my 14 week-old) didn't get to wear his costume due to Hurricane Sandy, but best believe that I'll be propping him up in it for a photo shoot before Thanksgiving. I think it's perfectly acceptable for babies to wear costumes all year long! ;)
I'm MIA for a few months and he's all grown up!! So cute!!
ReplyDeletehe's getting SO big already! Ugh, and slaying me with his cuteness!!! I'm a bit obsessed with sea turtles... so this is a double dose!
