EEEEEE! Quincey decided that he wanted to cut his hair (which is usually rock star length) to something shorter. We looked on the interwebz (safe search ON tyvm) and looked through a shit-load of EMO/punk/Bieber type styles until we came upon a picture of Chris Evans, aka Captain America. I LIKE THAT ONE MOM! (the picture in question features a shirtless Evans, with a thin sheen of sweat across his ample pecs). I LIKE IT TOO, HONEY! :D

So first, before the costume, the
costume1
He was so excited that he actually sat still for me. FOR ONCE!

And then, hilariously, the costume.
costume2
This is what he looked like after my prompting him: Look heroic! Puff out your chest! :D :D :D


I still have to make the gloves and put some velcro on the cowl. (it's just sorta tucked in there, at the mo.) The shield is from Wal-mart.

Awww. Did he actually get his hair cut like Cap, too?

Yup! The first pic is the 'before'. He looks really great with shorter hair. I was sad to see it go, but it really does suit him. :D

Nah, just for fun. He might wear it for Haloween, if it lasts that long, but likely, he'll have a new obsession by then. :D

Awww that is so cool and sweet! He looks so heroic. I can't sew a button to anything, so wow! awesome mom to create the costume.

Great job!

To be honest, I don't sew either. Just costumes. When my socks are ripped, i throw them out. :D

If you look really closely, you can see what a hack job it is.

Hee! Too cute. And of course he sat still for the haircut, he had to look like Cap, right? (With that short hair, he really does look like a miniature Chris Evans. Uh-oh, you're gonna have to watch the girls when he gets older.)

Date: 2012-06-13 03:44 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] tripperfunster.livejournal.com
:D He was actually disappointed that he DIDN'T look like Chris Evans. I suppose he thought the haircut would make him a grown man? (a drop-dead GORGEOUS grown man???)

Are you kidding? He HATES girls! They're gross! ;) Yeah, it's just a matter of time ....

That haircut is really working for your son. He's ridic cute.

Good on you for encouraging and not belittling his interests you know? (with both of you internet searching, etc). You sound like a good mum.

Thanks! Yes, I cut it. I was a hairdresser in a previous life, but haven't done anyone outside of my kids for years. It wasn't a job I particularly enjoyed.

I was excited that his interests were MY interests! Well, he's not SLASHING the characters, but he seems to have quite the boy-crush on Cap right now. :D (yanno, platonic crush ..)

Thank you! Ironically, he was NOT a cute baby. Not deformed or anything, but seriously, not cute. :D My friend once said "You know how all babies look like old men? Well Quincey looks like a middle aged man. Like Jim Belushi. :D "

Whoa! With those teeth he should try for Hermione. *ducks and runs*

(I say this as a person with fairly large front teeth myself, although they look much more in proportion with my other adult teeth than they did with the other first teeth, and I imagine the same will be true for him.)

and put some velcro on the cowl.

I read "put some velcro on the owl." O.o

hee! That first pic (the before) is actually from a couple of months ago, and yeah, he looks like a little beaver. His other teeth have started to grow in and he def looks a lot less like Hermione now. ;)

I think all kids look ridiculous with those giant teeth when they first arrive.
