i thought long & hard about what finn was going to be for halloween. his first year he was a whoopie cushion, but we were flying back to ky on halloween & he never actually wore it other than for this photo shoot. jill & i made it for him. it was huge. he could probably still fit in it ;)
& then last year he was max from where the wild things are. i was really impressed with how it turned out. the pants buttoned but it was really hot that day & i didn't want to over heat him & he has a black boa for a tail! Jill was there with me again -for emotional support :)
so this year... he had to be thomas. but he kept changing his mind between percy & thomas. i did a little research on how to make a cardboard train & found this link to be most helpful. so while bryan & i were watching t.v. i made the train. the next morning i taped what i didn't want to be blue & let finn paint it.
choo choo!
maya hanging out while we worked.
he did a great job.
the only mess he made!
& here is our project so far. i took the tape off & painted the rest red & yellow while he was napping. & then i used foam paper for the roof & thomas face. you'll see the finished product on the halloween post ;)
that wore maya out... so she toke a nap. that winnie the pooh in bed with her is the one finn picked out for her before she was born!
i don't know if you've seen our new kitchen table, yet? i love it. & the chairs. it makes me so happy, i even enjoy cooking more knowing we're going to sit there together.
his looks. i swear.
he's gotten big on having a snack plate for lunch.
& then maya woke up & we had a lil photo session.
