Baby Dress Up Calendar: Pink Lady from Grease

This year for Jake's Christmas gift, I decided to do something a little bit different.  Rather than buy him something he may or may not like, or even rather than buy him something I knew he would like, I thought it would be fun to make him something.  Bonnie Ann has her dad wrapped around her little finger, so I knew that she had to be involved in it somehow.

My idea?

I would make a calendar for him of Bonnie Ann dressed up as a different character from a TV show or movie each month.  I had seen it done a couple times before, so I wanted to try it out!

Over the next couple weeks I'm going to add all the pictures to the blog, but for now I'll give you a list of what I did as well as the first month's pictures!

January: A pink lady from Grease

February: Gladiator from Gladiator

March: Minion

April: Munchkin from The Wizard of Oz

May: Pebbles from The Flintstones

June: Daryl Dixon from The Walking Dead

July: Baseball player from A League of Their Own

August: Jax Teller from Sons of Anarchy

September: R2D2 from Star Wars

October: Tinkerbell

November: Walter White from Breaking Bad

December: Hogwarts student

Most of the costumes I made myself, but some of them were easy enough to just buy pieces for from the store.  That's what I did for the pink lady and I think it turned out great!

For this costume I put some black sparkly leggings on her, a black onesie and a pink light jacket.  It was super easy to put together and I think it is easy enough to recognize.  For the calendar itself I photoshopped 'Pink Ladies' onto the back of one of the pictures of her jacket so it made it even more easy to figure out.  Although I think she's adorable, this isn't one of my favorites of her costumes just because it was so basic.  What do you think?

Happy baby!

Another good smile from my pink lady

She's a singer!

Blue eyes!

Like I said above, Jax Teller is my favorite costume I made (probably because it was the most intricate!) but I am a big fan of each and every one.  It will be fun to be able to look back as Bonnie Ann gets older and relive all these memories.  And I will always remember Jake's reaction to seeing it!  He was pretty impressed - and about cried from laughing so hard at Walter White!

What do you think of this idea?  Would you ever do it?

I am thinking I will do one for 2017 as well, but with a different theme - any ideas for me???
