Ballerina Bo Peep

Although it was finished only about 30 minutes before throwing it on, Emory's costume is complete! It was 'dress-up week' at dance, so she attended ballet as Little Bo Peep. I made the costume in a size 1, yet it still swallows her, so it looks like she'll be dressing up as Little Bo Peep until she's about 12.

Also attending ballet was Cinderella, Minnie Mouse, a kitty cat and a cupcake (not pictured).{ Bo Peep was still eating a granola bar when dance began.}

During dress-up week at the dance studio the kids not only get to wear their costumes, but they get to "glow" in the black lights at the end of class. They get their nails painted with glow-in-the-dark polish, which magically shows up beside the lights. It is absolute chaos, but the kids love it.


After class we stayed and had a little party for the girls. We stripped them of their costumes and they inhaled lots of sugary, Halloween sweets.
What a fun day at ballet with the most precious little ballerinas!!
Now, can you guess what Baby Watson is gonna be??
{If I actually ever sit down and work on his costume!}

It looks so good! I am jealous because G won't be having a homemade costume this year :o( She is just going to be a Carolina cheerleader. Boo! I did make a little football suit for the new baby to wear, so at least we'll get some good (albeit post-Halloween) pictures :o) Love you guys!
