Tulip Fairies 25 September 2007

Is this not the cutest little costume you’ve ever seen? I found it at Party City and I’m thinking of getting it for Amelia for Halloween this year. I think she would look so adorable in it.

We don’t plan on taking her trick-or-treating this year. I think she’s too little and I’d rather wait till she can understand and enjoy it. Plus, she can’t eat any of the candy anyway. So I’m just going to dress her up for daycare. I’ve been browsing the internet for costume ideas and came across the one above. So far, it’s my favorite, but I’m still going to look around some more. I want something non-traditional. All the little kids dress up as a pumpkin or a witch and I want her to be somewhat unique.

I was thinking Dorothy…it would be cute, obvious what she’s dressed up as, yet simple so she’s not suffocating in a costume. But I haven’t had any luck finding a Dorothy dress in her size. Another problem we have is that I have no idea what the weather will be like. Right now the high has been in the 80/90s, but in another month, that could change and easily be in the 50s. So that makes it a little difficult to plan ahead. I know last year at this time it was still in the 80s, but by the time Amelia was born it was in the 60/70s so there really is no telling what the weather will be like in another month.

I think this little tulip dress would be fine because if it’s cool, she can wear a sweater over it, but if it’s anything like now, she won’t need anything else.
