Esmé has a slight obsession with undersea life and the cartoon Octonauts. She will spout out random sea creature facts and is fascinated by the most obscure animals such as sea pigs and leafy sea dragons. Her favourite animal is not the cute dolphin or colourful clownfish... it's the colossal squid. I love this funny gal of mine.
So of course it was only fitting that she have an undersea Octonauts birthday party!

For Halloween Esmé designed and created her own robot costume, but not just any robot, an Octobot!
Her inspiration:
I should mention that the reason there are no Halloween pictures of Tyne is because she refused to put on a costume. She is so particular about clothes that we have to devise daily strategies to get her into pants, let alone a weird costume.
This is wonderfully creative. It's amazing actually. Really, really nice.
