Humuhumu in an astronaut outfit, with Telstar.

Meant to post this on Caturday, but there was no time, what with the parkrun and going to look at bicycles and gardening and general parenting of one very active toddler and one baby who's just learnt to crawl and has markedly more suicidal tendencies than his sister, including a blatant disregard for the spikeyness capabilities of the cat.

There was a dress-up day for charity at Humuhumu's nursery last week. Every girl in the toddler room was a princess.

She is so cute, and Telstar's socks are cute too! That's cool that she got to be different from the other girls. She seems like such an active child (going from previous photos you've shared) that I imagine wearing a princess dress wouldn't do for her anyway.

This probably wasn't meant to be funny but I laughed anyway. Hopefully Telstar will teach Keiki without it being TOO painful for the latter.

I swear the glasses help her look even more astronaut-ish, somehow. :)

So adorable!

Also, is it second babies or something? Nico has way less fear/sense than Charles did at same ages.

Nico has ALL the Frozen clothes, so is bending stereotypes the other way.

All those princesses?

It says a lot about a lot of parents rather than their kids, so go you and go Humuhumu! :o)

Awww. *So* much better than a princess dress. Love Telstar's photo-bomb as well. That cat's got class...

Well-costumed.

I wonder how many of those princesses were actively being rewritten to be characters suiting the nature of the young children, rather than hang the young children trying to emulate the characters.

It is at least better that the princesses of our day are slowly improving to the point where wanting to emulate one is not a problem of feminism.

She is the cutest thing EVER.

(And Keiki will learn respect for Telstar soon enough. *g*)

Her glasses transform this outfit from 'cute dress up' (as I recall viewing it previously) to 'get out of my way, I'm a professional astronaut and I have to do something important'.

Plus Telstar adds a certain "giant space monster" element.
