Wonder Woman

I knew right away that I wanted to do a Wonder Woman costume with Laurelin.  Some days I feel like I am wonder woman with all that I am able to accomplish, but most days, I get frustrated with myself for not doing more.  I definitely struggle when I don't get enough sleep, and these past two months with Arien have made me struggle to get the rest I need.  But each day brings a new chance to do better than the previous day, and that thought has given me the encouragement I need to give myself grace on the days when I am struggling.  😊  And for those of you who might be wondering if today is one of those awesome days for me, I can assure you that the fact I haven't showered yet should be all the info you need to figure that one out.  😂

Princess Leia

As you can tell, I had trouble picking my favorite picture to use.  Laurelin really owned this Princess Leia costume.  I am so glad I was able to do this costume.  I am very excited for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker to come out.  It won't be the same without Carrie Fisher, but I am very hopeful that they will do a great job of ending this great saga.

Zelda

My husband and I bought a switch specifically to play Zelda Breath of the Wild.  We were not disappointed!  It is such a great game!  So I knew I wanted to have Laurelin be Zelda.  The dress I was basing this costume off of is much more complicated, but I figured I could still get the point across even by keeping it simple.  Having her pose in front of Hyrule Castle probably helps.  😊

Princess Peach

Here is Laurelin as Princess Peach in front of her glorious castle!  She makes a very pretty princess.  😊 Although her manners could use a little work... She tried to eat the tunnel.   😂

Lilo

This costume was done last minute since another idea just wasn't working out.  I actually already had this idea, but initially planned to save it because I was trying to figure out a way to include Stitch.  Even though Lilo is without Stitch, I still think she's super cute.  😊

Skeleton

Oh no!  There's a skeleton wandering through this grave yard!  😱  

Can you tell I'm enjoying this??  Laurelin is being such a great model for these costumes!  😍

Bumble Bee

Isn't Laurelin the cutest little bumble bee??!  She pouched her treat and then smelled the flowers.  😊
