Speed Racer

 
First of all, I know Daniel will hate me for this picture one day, but it is the picture that pretty much sums up the entire month of January '09 for him, so I had to post it. Dan's cousin, Marshall gave him a Speed Racer DVD for Christmas (thanks Marshall, it's been a HUGE hit!). The DVD is a collection of the old cartoons from the 60s. Daniel LOVES it & plays speed racer nonstop w/ all of his race cars. Of course, he has a costume. It consists of his sunglasses, bike helmet & brown saddle oxford shoes. I get the helment & shades, but the saddle oxfords??? He says they are racer shoes & wears them all day somedays. I'm pretty sure Speed Racer doesn't wear Mickey Mouse underwear, but Daniel hasn't thought about that yet, or the fact the he has on no clothes & Speed Racer wears them. Typical Daniel...all the of costume, minus the clothes! I thought he would start wearing his clothes more as he got older or as the weather got colder this winter, but no such luck. He strips down to his undies as soon as we walk in the door everyday & complains if I ask him to put on anything!
