Day 34 How To Transform yourself into Captain America

[tripperfunster]

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

He was so excited that he actually sat still for me. FOR ONCE!

And then, hilariously, the costume.

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.

Did you cut his hair? If so, good job

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 ..)
