Oct. 29th, 2008 12:08 pmToday, my child was not the cutest kid at music class. Because I think you get force-choked if you call Darth Vader "cute." So my child was the most fearsome Sith in music class today.
(Actually, he refused to wear the hat, so he kinda reminded me of that scene in Empire Strikes Back where Luke has the vision quest and decapitates Vader, and finds his own head in the helmet--except without the whole decapitation thing.)
The cutest kid was the little girl dressed as a ladybug. Or maybe the one dressed as a Tootsie Roll. Only two of the kids were actually dressed as what the parents were planning--apparently there was a lot of infant rebellion this morning. :)
There's something to be said for watching a little Darth Vader stalk around the room and then bounce with maracas. Oh, and spin with flowy scarves. He also liked to spin so his cape would whip out.
I think, next year, if I can talk Gus into it--he'll be two, so he'll have more opinions--I'd like to see if David could maybe help me make him a wolf suit, so he can be Max from Where the Wild Things Are. I have a friend who can sew and might take payment in baby pictures, so hey. :)
Oh, and due to the constant refrain of "llama!" around here (see
dealio's recent post about the petting zoo), one of Scott's so-called "friends" sent us this horrible thing. You know something's trying to kill you when the baby watches it for a while and then says, "OFF!"
