This Mom Dresses Her Napping Baby in the Most Amazing Costumes
Most parents tip-toe around their sleeping babies, afraid that they will rouse a raging beast by accidentally making a sound that’s just a decibel too loud. Photographer Laura Izumikawa, on the other hand, parent to four-month-old Joey Marie, is not afraid. Not only is Joey Marie a super-sound sleeper, this adorable little one is also becoming the most popular cosplay star on the internet. The Little Mermaid, Ghostbusters, even Stranger Things — there’s nothing this duo can’t (adorably) do.
Initially dressing up her little one and taking the pics to give friends and family a little chuckle, it wasn’t long before the rest of the world took notice, especially when Laura dressed Joey Marie in an on-point Stranger Things costume, setting fans of the hit show alight with glee.
