Our teacher sent an email to the class a couple days before the party letting us know about the theme. Suddenly I had 3 days to come up with a pirate costume. This was the same week as Hadley's birthday party so I was stretched a little thin and didn't feel up to making an elaborate second costume. Luckily pirates are pretty simple!
You guys - how cute is this little man?! Arggh.
I took some old fleece pants that Ash had out grown and tattered the legs a bit to make them more swashbuckler friendly. Who has a size 18 month waist? Oh yeah, this guy. ha!
His striped shirt is from Wal-Mart and the vest is a simple red felt number that I patterned after Asher's Cubbies vest. The straps are hot glued on. Pirates pull their vests over their heads - you knew that, right?
I love this boy - he made for one great pirate! :-)
For only having a few days to put this together, you rocked it, mama!
