zombie baby + mama

depending on how you look at it, being pregnant can narrow or expand halloween costume options. being that this may be the only time i have the opportunity, sam and i decided to go all out with a creeping theme....

bitten by a zombie, the baby and i become zombies ourselves.
(in case you were not aware, baby zombies burst out of the belly!)


to replicate this hilarious costume...
(1) find a life-like baby doll (if new, you may want to bathe it since it may reek of weird, perfumed plastic)










(2) cut off the body parts you wish to use as the "bursting out" parts, then drill holes for sewing into a shirt










(3) sew doll parts into a shirt














(4) apply lip liner to yours and the doll's eyes, around the edges of the shirt where the doll is bursting out and anywhere else you feel like it and you're done!
