Only what you need for your baby. Really. (OK – and some fantastic things you don’t that are pretty cool.)
Today is Astrid’s birthday party and the theme is ladybugs because she loses it every time she sees a ladybug. Even more so when she sees a flag, but I wasn’t going to do a United Nations theme for a two-year-old’s birthday party.
While I was hunting for not-too-over-the-top ladybug stuff online, I came across this adorable “snuggle sack.” It’s basically a way cute sleep sack, but with snaps at the shoulders and a bottom zipper instead of a front zipper. All in all, less convenient for middle-of-the-night diaper changes than the standard full-length front zip style but still a great way to keep your tiny one warm in her crib during the day and adorable for visiting admirers.
Comes in an owl theme too, if you prefer a woodland look.
Baby Aspen Ladybug Snuggle Sack (0-6 months), $36.99 at Diapers.com or $32 at Amazon. Or Little Owl, same price.
