It was hard to decide what to dress my peanut as, so many choices! I looked at buying him a costume, but they were either really expensive, unavailable to be posted to Australia, or not in his size.... so a search on etsy gave me some inspiration and here is the Robin outfit so far, just have to make a cape... which is a little intimidating ... I think I have lost my sewing nerve!!<br /><br />more photos to come :)<br /><div></div>JoPMhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10019628039518581924noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-977814708382266832.post-29721445816142217342009-09-21T21:18:00.000-07:002009-09-21T21:21:19.608-07:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv2xxEMpkpJYwU_98iDTk3XYll8pdPu2iE80C625j3rPNmkz4GR2-8f1qLoYYf9xHguB6tQzH7QzjQYRGb6GWDM-ZIWJzCVB0yuMJn08yCd1xctw3b7zUkyPTGY4FWKMPlYuWF5V-ny6JF/s1600-h/7623_134318010587_708185587_2981793_6627980_n.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384141893019956082" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv2xxEMpkpJYwU_98iDTk3XYll8pdPu2iE80C625j3rPNmkz4GR2-8f1qLoYYf9xHguB6tQzH7QzjQYRGb6GWDM-ZIWJzCVB0yuMJn08yCd1xctw3b7zUkyPTGY4FWKMPlYuWF5V-ny6JF/s320/7623_134318010587_708185587_2981793_6627980_n.jpg" /></a> The lovely Shae posted this pretty picture of the hat...
