After a much better night than last night, the morning was much smoother than yesterday. I woke up with Wavy at 7:00am and got the rest of the kids up shortly thereafter. Our friend came and picked up Dekker and Laela for VBS, and I was down to three!
Wavy was more settled today, and Ro and Solly were playing really well together! I got laundry going, did some dishes, and felt like a human. I invited Cher over for coffee, which was a lovely way to spend the morning. She left right around lunchtime, and I fed the little boys. They ate really well, which is not always the case. Woot!
I put the boys down for naps, continued on with laundry, and hung with Wavy until the big kids were dropped back off. They were both, once again, buzzing about their morning away. They ate some lunch, and then settled in to play Lego for their quiet time. Meanwhile, I folded laundry on the island. Its my favorite place to fold and organize the kids clothes. We weren’t overwhelmingly behind on laundry, which is usually when I choose to wash it all, but we were out of a very key item! Wavy’s sleepers!
To be fair, Wavy has TONS of sleepers. Like a full drawer of jammies. We weren’t out of all of them. We’re out of her best sleepers, and I just don’t want to use the other ones. Newborn is getting tight on her, but she’s swimming in the 3 month Carters ones. But guys, I’ve recently hit the jackpot on jammies, and I have to share.
Children’s Place.
Bear with me, here. Let me tell you my reasoning.
- They fit like those delightful Carter’s “snug fit” sleepers, but those ones only start in bigger sizes. At Children’s Place, the snug fit start at 0-3 month.
- The 0-3 month size at Children’s Place fits like newborn, only taller and longer in the limbs!
- Baby’s feet will actually stay in the feet of the sleeper!
- Children’s Place recently changed their policy, and shipping is always free, no minimum.
- The price is right! Usually, anyway 😉 Children’s Place is unfortunately a store that I almost always feel is overpriced, but sleepers are so often 50% off, taking them from $20 to $10, therefore making them comparable in price to Carters, if not a little better 🙂
I couldn’t resist sharing this with those of you who have a tiny one to dress in cute, skinny little sleepers! I don’t very often like the designs sold at Children’s Place. In fact, I almost wrote a post the other day based solely around a onesie I saw on their site that I HATED, but I cooled off and decided against it 😉 If you can find a pattern or color that you like, I encourage you to give it a try and a buy!
These are just a few of the ones we have, and I like them all! I highly suggest you consider these things for future baby gifts for your loved ones! They are just SUCH a nice fit!!
