Halloween 2012 - Tinkerbell the Fairy

Costume by Mom. 

She made the dress much like a tutu, the wings from old panty hose and hangers, and sprayed the shoes to make them green. She did not like the wings all that much and even picked me up a cool pair of green wings. However, I actually like the creamy white ones better and insisted on wearing them on our trick-or-treating expedition.

Oh, and I made it through many, many houses. I could have kept at it all night. Fabulous time. I'm already preparing for next year.

Sleeping...

Mom and Dad say I could sleep through just about anything. I am a very peaceful sleeper and love sleeping in my bed. In fact, when I'm ill I won't even sleep in Mom and Dad's bed but rather they end up sleeping on the floor in my room. I've generally always been an excellent sleeper even at 3-4 weeks old. 

Note a few things from these photos. First, the checker blanket was a gift to brother when he was a tiny baby. A wife of a co-worker of Dad's made it for him. He out-grew it a couple years ago but it's still my size and we both have loved it so much. 

Secondly, note the sheets on my bed. You cannot tell but they are "Blue's Clues". Cousin Dede LOVED these sheet when he was a young boy. Now's he's grown and in high school but we still enjoy using them (even if they are blue). Third, notice my small pillow. It really is my size and I do love that. Oh, and the bed I'm sleeping on used to belong to my aunts (Dad's sisters).

You have to also notice the blanket hanging on the floorboard of the bed. Grandma N knitted it for me and it is extremely special to us. I insist it always be nearby even if it's too warm for use.

She Cap and Wonder Woman

She Cap Costume...

 

Wonder Woman Costume (made by Mom)...

In case it is not obvious in the photos, I LOVE wearing these. And yes, we're a patriotic household.

Pink Bones and Alien Balloons...

Dad calls me Bones when I wear these jammies. I love that they are glow-in-the-dark.

Mom picked up the balloon at a lunch meeting she attended. She ensured that mine had a pink suit and Brother's had a green body.
