Hunting for the right coat

December 13th, 2007

Finding a good winter coat for Zeke was trickier than I thought it would be. I looked at Baby Gap, Old Navy, Mervyns, JC Penny, and even Target with little luck. Everywhere I went they only had 12 mo. size coats that were too big. I ended up buying one at Old Navy, they had a size 6-12 mo., but it was still way too big, and not very cute (with some things I’m so picky). Then, my mom, Zeke, and I went shopping at the South Town Mall, and I remembered I hadn’t checked The Children’s Place yet. I was so excited to find a 6-9mo. size coat, and I liked it better than all the others I had looked at. It seems warmer, and it has a fleece jacket liner that can be zipped on or off depending on if it’s a cooler, or freezing day.

    aww he is just so sweet all bundled up in his new coat! I love the Childrens Place, we always find the cutest boy clothes there :)

    Very cute coat… all the little things (like buying coats) that I haven’t even begun to think about with a baby. The adventure will begin for me soon. Woohoo!

    Coats are hard to find for little guys, especially if you don’t want to spend $40 for something they will wear for a year. I love the Children’s Place! I’ve had good luck finding boy clothes there. Good choice!

    I guess I have a blog now…whether it sucks or not is the real question.

    Ok, so this is the real deal. I’ve decided the other one is no good. Forgive my fickleness please!

    What a cute blog! I am glad you commented on ours, now I can check out your blog too. I love blogging, even if we don’t have kids yet… so I am always glad to find new blogging friends :)
    PS Mike did have to have some help with the birthday gifts but he did pretty good.

    That coat looks great to me! I finally found Macie a good coat from Osk Kosh. It is hard to find some things for kids.
