Oh!  Is it March already?!  I guess Celebrate the BOY month should technically be over...but I won't tell if you don't, OK?

I wanted to set aside a special post for costumes, because I think it's one of the popular things parents sew for their boys, hands down.  There's something motivating about going to the store and seeing all those plasticky polyester ghoul costumes at Halloween that really gets us sewing, no?  And those of you who never touch your sewing machine will rally when it comes to making a birthday costume for a party. So when I asked for you guys to post your boy costumes the other day, I should have been prepared for the overwhelming response:

 1. king's cloak, 2. Flying Monkey, 3. captain c!, 4. Heman Costume, 5. wizard cloth, 6. Xmas tree costume - Fato Arvore de Natal, 7. IMG_7056, 8. 11010905, 9. Little Astronaut Man , 10. caterpillar, 11. Rocket Ship, 12. Recyclobot Waves, 13. James Madison, 14. Monkey! Halloween 2008, 15. Dragon outfits, 16. Superhero 025, 17. IMG_7524, 18.

1. Dinosaur Costume, 2. flame shot, 3. ninja, 4. home made haloween bambam , 5. robot, 6. DSC_00702009-10-31crop, 7. army, 8. recycle man, 9. Musketeer Halloween Costume, 10. Mouse & Cheese, 11. clown, 12. "Buddy the T Rex"  Costumes, 13. Dinosaur Costume, 14. Captain Aesop!, 15. Lego costumes, 16. Little Cowboy

I can't even begin to talk about each one of these, but that spaceship up there (top mosaic, third row, left side) really cracked me up.  I mean, can you imagine walking around the neighborhood in that?  Those legos are really clever too (bottom row of the mosaic right above).  And lots of dragons in the pool, lots of Max:
