I figured that was the best place to stop. I do have to go cut some hair this afternoon, but I'll try to work on it tonight.

I just found your trip report and love it I've read every entry. Your DD is so cute, and I must agree with you on the cotton candy puff whenever we go I talk my nieces out of it all the time.

Aww bless she looks so adorable A little Princess

 

[PrincessBetsy]

Great TR! Love the BBB sequence! We did BBB for Dd and she brought her own Tinkerbell outfit. I am so glad they let you do that instead of having to buy the whole thing. If you can ever get her to do Pirate's League, that is so much fun, DH, Dd and I have been there. You can also reuse many of the supplies to dress up again later.

Such great BBB pictures! The photographer did a great job. I agree the blonde is much better than the pink! And not gonna lie when I saw the "bubble" I was totally thinking of your last TR when you said you hate the bubble look! She looks great though!

Thanks so much for joining in! I don't know why they think the bouffant do looks good, but try as I might they won't make it spikey for me. But the important thing is that Claire loves it.

I prefer to bring our own as well. In 2008 we had an appointment and I bought the Aurora dress a few days prior for her to wear. (I loved that dress back then, which they no longer make). But my mistake was making the appointment for the last day and Claire was so tired and cranky and only 3, that when we got there she cried and we ended up not doing it. I wasn't going to force her. Of course she regretted it afterwards. In 2009 we brought our own dress and I loved how special she felt. She almost got a little more attention for having a unique dress.
We have since sold that dress and the Aurora, both to the same person and she is taking her grandaughter in a few weeks. It was sad to sell them, but I know they will get great use and make special memories for her as well.

I tried to persuade her to go with blonde before we went...and thank goodness she listened.
At least the blond bubble didn't look EXACTLY like cotton candy.

I have been waiting to see your bbb pics. Omg...amazing! That dress is beyond beautiful. I have a dress for my dd... But I am not sure I want to use it... I keep thinking it needs to be an "official" wdw dress. Yours isn't , right? I think it looks way better than the Disney ones I have been seeing. Claire is quite the princess...and while I agree with you on the puff ball... It really is cute on her , which also makes me realize that if my dd goes with it....it probably will be fine.

 

[Mndisneygirl]

Great BBB pictures!!!
What a beautiful little princess you have!!!

 

[SoonerGirl]

Awwww, what a beautiful little princess Claire is! I hope BBB stays around for a few more years because I am determined to take my niece there when she gets old enough!

Thanks. No my dress is not official. I have come to like the dresses that are NOT official. It kind of makes your child more unique and stand out. I think the only park official one we had was the Tiana dress we had on the cruise.

Great BBB pictures!!!
What a beautiful little princess you have!!!

Thanks!

I think it wil lbe. It still seems to be pretty popular.

Time for the Big reveal!

For those who are not familiar with BBB, They never let the child see themselves in the mirror the whole time. So until she turns Claire to face the mirror she really doesn’t know what she looks like. I always love the look on her face when she sees it for the first time. Photopass can usually capture it pretty well too.

Claire was VERY Happy with her result!!

 

[RinkyTinkyTinky]

She looks beautiful and I love her expression in the reveal! My DD is so bashful that she wouldn't smile like that.

Got a question on the puff ball..... will they at least not make it so big if you ask them to? In all the pictures that I have seen, it looks like they just poof it up too high. I think I could deal with it if they didn't try to frizz it up so high. I know you said they wouldn't leave it spiked, but I wonder if they would smoosh it down some? I know that's the style that DD will want if we go though because she wants "long hair like Rapunzel". And it will turn out fine even if they make it sky high. Claire looks like a doll in hers, so I know it will be ok. I think the crown makes it look really good. I'll have to remember that. I was planning to use the little tiara that she got at BBB last time, but the crown seems more balanced with the poof ball.

Thanks. I don't know if they will push it down or not, but you can after.

She looks amazing and so happy!!
