Silly Flamingo

"I'm a silly flamingo!"

 

Those are word you can catch Levia saying.

She says she's a flamingo and her favorite color is pink.

I love how she can tell you what she likes at only 3.5

When she's being silly,

I call her "silly goose."

And she always, and I mean always corrects me,

"Mom, I'm not a silly goose. I'm a silly flamingo!"

I have no idea where she came to love flamingos,

but I think she has a love for them because they are pink.

Levia can also tell you that she wants to be a flamingo when she grows up.

My baby girl,

I love her imagination.

 

Since Halloween is coming up,

I decided I would make a costume for her with clothes she already had.

I added a lot of feathers to her bathing suit tutu.

And I can tell you she loves it so much more now.

She'll also be wearing pink tights, a matching head band,

and I found her some ballerina shoes at Target for $8.

When I told her she would be a flamingo for Halloween,

she was so excited,

seriously I wish I could have recorded how happy she was.

 

 

This past Saturday,

Levia went to her first Halloween/Birthday party.

She wore her costume and I could not stop smiling.

When I see her happy,

having fun,

laughing,

playing,

and bonding with others,

my heart grows fuller.

She's the best toddler ever.

 

(Below are a few photos of her tutu.

I'll be updating with more photos later on.)
