Gavin has been really into costumes lately and for some reason thinks that I can just whip him up a costume of his choosing at anytime. I cannot, but often promise that Grandma Nancy can. However, I have seen that these fads fade about as quickly as Grandma can make a costume, so we've taken to construction paper costuming.

Jake (Gavin insists on being Jake, which makes it confusing when he also insists we address him as such) and Cubby (Jacob) from "Jake and The Neverland Pirates". Gavin's costume consists of an inside out cowboy vest as his pirate's vest and a light saber as his pirates sword.

Luigi (Jacob) and Mario (Gavin) with their Crayola mustaches.

Yoshis from Super Mario Brothers. The only requirement for the Yoshi costume was that they have spikes down their backs. I have found out that their costume requirements are easily satisified.

Princess Peach (Gavin's best friend Avery) and Mario (Gavin). I started to make the boys Mario and Luigi hats, but they were satisfied with the visor portion of the hat, so we called that good. When Avery came for a playdate, it was only fitting that she be Princess Peach with a purple (her fave color) visor. Gavin has been wearing this paper visor everywhere and getting lots of compliments on it. It is looking a little worse for wear at this point, but I'll just make him a new one next week.
