Maeve really wanted to be a mermaid for halloween. We went to the fabric store, picked out the pattern and then came home. Once I started to really look at the pattern I finally had to admit to myself that I simply did not have the time to make it.

Lucky for me, we found this dress at "The Toy Store" and Maeve said she would be a "queen." I quickly got over the guilt of having my child wear a store bought costume and we took the purple dress home.

I know what you are thinking - "Isn't that a PRINCESS costurme?" Well, yes...at least I think so. But Maeve says she is not a princess, she is a Queen.
