Bourbon Street Baby

in Dress Up, Play

I have already revealed our families love of New Orleans.  My hubbies family has been there for years and we spend time there twice a year – Thanksgiving and Jazz Fest.  We do not attend Mardi Gras but as I have stated previously, my boobs get enough action right here in Charlotte and we have tons of beads so I am set.  I make a mean hurricane and I am an easy drunk so I can get that Mardi Gras feeling anytime.

Tonight, during dress up I realized my daughter is definitely from the New Orleans side of the fam.

She has the shiny outfit, the beads to give away and oops – she may have acquired the beads as she is showing her girls!

She is a very glamorous toddler and while the picture does not show it she is also wearing pink shoes with feathers on top.  Her cousin lily provided these high heeled dress up wonders and it only took Sophia 5 minutes to get them on and provided almost an hour of fun walking around.  Anything that provides an hour of fun to a 2 year old is worth its weight in gold (or doubloons in New Orleans speak).
 
So we will go with this Bourbon street theme for Sophia’s 2nd birthday next month and combine this with our annual Gumbo party.  We make a mean gumbo and I love to have parties so this should be perfect. 
 
We will just have to get Sophia to keep a little more covered!  Let’s get this party started!
