Disney Super Heroes 10K and Kids Race

John ran the Disney 10K.  We went up and stayed in a nearby hotel so he could just walk over in the morning. Then we got to hang out at Downtown Disney the night before.








He also did the kids race with Arthur and Sienna.


Sponsored by Gogo Squeez. Arthur was in heaven. 



yay!

Sienna's TK Jogathon

Sienna had her first jogathon.  She ran 54 laps around a tiny track.

She put a lot of effort into it!




Arthur's Almost 2

There were a lot of bath related shenanigans during Arthur's last month of being 1.















And then the crib broke.  (He's been in the pack n play since.)




Where's Arthur?


Videos of Arthur over the past few months. Piggies, asking for fruit snacks, hating sand, hating his Halloween costume, loving his sis, loving trucks, trying to sit in his "seat", coloring with his left hand, saying night night to anemones, 


And videos of him this month. Loving Fall, loving Christmas trees, loving applesauce, loving garbage trucks, loving guinea pigs, refusing to eat applesauce until you spell it, and turning 2.

Homemade Rapunzel Dress and Wig Costume

Sienna was C-3PO for our Stars Wars Droids family Halloween costume.  But if you asked her, she was "the Golden Guy", or if pressed to name him, C-Creepy-O.  Sooo, I made her a different costume to wear to school.  And also as an excuse to make her a Rapunzel dress-up.


Peasant dress pattern: Simplicity 2377 (Minnie Mouse dress)


I made the dress much longer than the Minnie Mouse dress, and in a bigger size, but it's pretty much the same. The light purple pattern has hearts traced all over it, a cute little detail.


As for the hair, I estimate the yarn cuts to be about 9 feet long.  I'm guessing you'd need 12 feet strands to make a floor length one.  Sienna is about 44 inches tall.  It's a lot of yarn.

She loved wearing it for Halloween, and she loves dressing up in it after school most days.  Bonus: It was probably less than $5 to make.  And it's the same yarn I used for the C-3PO hat.
