Space Man!

Our little boy is SO loved... Auntie Valerie just *happens* to work at JPL and did a little shopping on our behalf. Behold! The coolest astronaut costume EVER (oh, yeah, and Alex was really excited about it too):


We laid out his clothes for school. I thought I should prep him up for it - since he hasn't dressed up before.


In the morning, as I was getting him dressed, he kept saying "Mommy hide Alex?" It's really funny, he calls it "hiding"... which I guess makes sense... especially to a 2-1/2 year old.

The teachers at his school thought it was really cool, and really appreciated the practicality of it! (me too) So now, we're just hoping it will fit him next year too! :)

Photos of him actually in it to follow! Stay tuned!
