Baby World Leader caesarCostume Contest

This Halloween show your tender babe in his or her best impression of a world leader--historical or current. Whether you chose Margaret Thatcher or Hu Jintao or Julius Caesar, the choice is up to you. The person your child imitates must be or have been a world leader--president, prime minister, junta leader, dictator, king, queen, etc.
