Similar but different

First we have Paxton. This kid absolutely loves to dress up. He is upset with us if we don't let him dress up. If you'll remember the singlet we showed earlier, well, Paxton also inherited some old Halloween costumes...much to our detriment. The ones that I am referring to are a horse and a lion. Now the horse fits Paxton and Gauge is about the right size for the lion.
Paxton, being the kid he is, wanted to dress up as the horse the other day. I thought it would be cute to let Gauge play along and I put him into the lion costume.
Paxton...Loved it!
He got right into character, he knew just what to do. He was no longer Paxton, he was the horse! Gauge on the other hand, was horrified!He could not believe that I would put him into a costume like this...He was so upset with me that he went to the corner and put himself into time out!Poor kid...So similar, but so different!

Awwww! That little sad lion face just breaks my heart! Hahaha, poor little dude. If Paxton ever needs a pal to dress up with, have him come play with me - we all know my obsession with Halloween and it's merriment.

PS - drove by your house today! I was feeling all nostalgic and was driving around my old haunts. Did I peek in your windows? Of course not, but then - I am only a stage 1 stalker.

I laughed to hard at Gauge's picture.....poor little guy. Your boys are just so cute.....it makes me sad that we aren't closer so that I can shower them with hugs and kisses. Love the post!~

Heidi-ho pulls off a great cowardly lion...makes us laugh so hard we cry while she wrings the tail.
Gotta let Gauge watch Lion King 'til he wants to play Mufasa
("ewwhh, (shudder) do it again.") & Simba. Cute, cute photos of your boys!
