Need suggestions on a costume for MNSSHP

[alliesmommy]

We will be going to the party on Sept 22nd and I'm concerned about the heat. DH and I are planning on getting t-shirts made, but I'd really like DD (2) to dress up. She'll be in a stroller most of the time, so it needs to be comfortable for her to sit in. Any suggestions? Thanks!!

When DD was 2 and we went to MNSSHP that was our biggest concern. We ended up putting her in a cheerleader outfit and we made T-shirts that had her picture in the outfit on it that said Our Little All-Star (or something like that) on the front. Then on the back we had "Sammi's Mom" and "Sammi's Dad"

Here are just some suggestions off the top of my head:
1. Little American Idol - you can dress her however you'd like to suit the weather, just get a microphone and print out a contestant number.
2. Luau girl - get a grass skirt and lei
3. 50's girl - get a poodle skirt
4. Kitty - only get the ears
5. Madeline - since this character is in the blue dress, should be comfortable in the stroller plus the yellow hat
6. Safari explorer - you could probably find the necessary items from Oriental Trading
7. Dora the Explorer - I think she wears shorts so that would help if it is hot
8. Alice in Wonderland

That's all I can think of right now. Hope this helps. Have a great time!

Howdy fellow Texans! We will be there the same night!!! If you're wanting to stick w/ the Disney theme, you could just dress her as Minnie--nice cool red polka-dotted dress? You & DH could wear Mickey/Minnie shirts w/ Mickey/Minnie ears on your heads??

We are seriously considering the Incredibles. We wanna dress DD9 like Violet & DD6 like Dash (maybe just short sleeves & shorts, not the whole long sleeve outfits.) DH & I can just wear our Incredibles t-shirts that we wore last summer.

Anyway, good luck with your decision & hopefully we'll see ya there!

Thanks for the suggestions, guys!

I can sew, so I've been looking around for ideas. Allie was sitting by me while I was on the laptop last night and came across and very cute cinderella pattern that she loved. "I Cideryella, Momma" So, it looks like that might be what we go with. I like that I can make it with lightweight fabrics. Here's a pic of the pattern. What do ya'll think?

P.S. I love the idea of the dressing the family like the Incredibles. We'll keep a look out for ya'll!

OH!! She will be just precious as Cinderella! I never thought of a princess, because those costumes are so itchy & scratchy. But, if you're making it...then it will be wonderful! Now you & DH can dress up as Gus & the cute female mouse. Have fun sewing & we'll see ya there.

LOL. Now that's an adorable idea! Wonder if DH will go for it.
