My Mitten Solution (so far, so good)

I’ve been struggling to decide what to do regarding Cameron’s poor little freezing fingers.  He is constantly taking off his socks, shoes, and hats, so I didn’t have much hope that anything on his hands would stay there more than 5 minutes.

I saw a post awhile back on Celia’s blog Chic Squirt about Stonz Wear baby booties, and while exploring the site I acame across their Mittz.  The website claims they will stay on!  And the design looked promising.  So I asked for a pair (along with some booties) for Cameron’s birthday, and was happy when some arrived in the mail.  We haven’t broken out the booties yet, but we’ve been using the mittz and they do indeed stay on!  They ones for kids under 2 don’t have thumbs, which is a key feature.  Not only does it make them easy to put on, it makes them hard for Cameron to get off.  I thought he would be annoyed, but he totally didn’t seem to mind!  Plus his fingers were nice and toasty. :)

More Winter Gear From Etsy

The post I did on Cute Winter Hats from Etsy has been one of the most viewed on the blog so far – so I decided to do another one, and this time I’ve also included some adorable mittens too since I got an email from a visitor asking for some recommendations.   Here we go – each picture links to the product on Etsy:

This baby fedora is for my friend Tiffany, and her son Jax who is currently rocking a Kangol inspired cap.  I think this one is right up their alley!

Angora Infant Wool Pilot Cap- Argyle Deer, size 12 months and up

I’m a sucker for Argyle, so I instantly loved this hat.  Plus the tie string makes sure it will stay put!

Love the newsboy cap, but this is more about the fingerless gloves – genius!  (You can get the gloves separately if you like).

Super Chic Adorable Arm Wamers

Still on the Arm Warmers tip – these are so long they stand a good chance of staying on!  Pull them down low for some finger coverage….

Cameron is totally into fire trucks, so this might be our next purchase….

….and why not get some mittens (from the same seller).  Thumb less, for easy usage.  You pick the color!

FYI, from the first post I bought Cameron both the Baby Bear Beanie as well as a Little Lids Cars hat (not pictured in the first post, but other designs from this shop were featured).  I am loving them both, and we get tons of compliments!
