Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep...

I am about 99% finished with Kate's costume. I have about 1/4 of the dress left to hem. I wanted her to have a poofy slip to wear under her dress, so I went out in search of one this morning. You might be surprised, but they are harder to find than you might think. I finally found one at Little Things Mean Alot in American Fork. I also found her staff at Halloween USA.

So, even though it's not completely done, I had to make her try on the whole gettup. I think it's adorable. And of course Andie wanted to wear her "my Sheep." How could I say no? So we tried to take a couple of pictures.



Andie was not as into the whole "posing" thing as Kate.

It was too bright on the front porch.

So we tried the fireplace.

I thought this one was pretty cute.

Then we tried the back porch.

Kate is pretty excited about her costume, and can't wait to wear it to Preschool next week. I just hope Andie will keep hers on for Halloween.

I did make Kate's dress. I couldn't find one in stores that I liked for a decent price, so I tried my had at making it. (I think it turned out darling. I'm a little proud of my work!)

Has Kate tried "hooking" Andie with the staff yet? For some reason, it looks like it would only come naturally!
I LOVE their costumes! You did a great job on the dress!

Katy, that was the first thing Kate said to me when I showed her the staff/hook.

"And if Andie tries to run away, I can just hook her around the neck."

I told her no, because it would choke Andie.

She replied, "Then maybe just around the leg."
