She thought it looked cute from the website picture. But when ours arrived and she put it on our daughter, it came with an extra not-so-subtle anatomy:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_dqhOVngvX4k/Rw8DUfefAuI/AAAAAAAAADo/wd0Mr7eTTLE/s1600-h/P1000909.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_dqhOVngvX4k/Rw8DUfefAuI/AAAAAAAAADo/wd0Mr7eTTLE/s320/P1000909.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5120314951925170914" border="0" /></a><br />Here's <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/jacob.everist/BabyElephantCostumeWithAErrmTrunk">more</a> photos of the same thing so you know I'm not photoshopping this.<br /><br />Now, I'm not one to think this is intentional, but it's quite mind-boggling that this went out the door and delivered to a newborn. This costume design has a serious design flaw and there was no way we were going to be wearing this on my daughter's first Halloween.<br /><br />We got this costume from <a href="http://www.babycenter.com/">BabyCenter.com</a>, so my wife dutifully filed a complaint but have not received any response from them for over a week. We want to get rid of this, but are hesitant to give this to other parents.<br /><br />From the costume <a href="http://store.babycenter.com/product/baby+clothing/halloween+boutique/0+-+6+months/elephant+newborn+costume.do?asc=false">portrait</a> on the website, it doesn't look so bad. It looks completely harmless. Who knew the shocking anatomy present if you get a better angle on that trunk.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6107919861830281653-3689515030648072826?l=babycentersucks.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>everistnoreply@blogger.com2
