If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

What are you putting on them to wear? It is 14 degrees out and I want to make sure she is bundled up enough!

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

Unfortunately, yes, I have to go to work so she's going to MIL's. I'm lucky, she still is in the infant carrier with the Bundle Me-- love that thing. So she'll be in think overalls, a onesie, socks and the Bundle Me with a hat and a blanket over the whole carrier to/from the car.

Definitely do layers, since I'm sure wherever you're going with DC it will be toasty and warm inside!

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

I am taking Ella out for her daily morning walks and I am going to bundle her up in some all in one swaeter jumper with undershirts and tights and a sweater over it and put her in the Bundle me. She will have on her hat and mittens.

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

Think its overkill if I use snowpants over the clothes with a sweater, turtleneck, jeans and a coat?

ETA, too bad, DD is out of the infant carrier, so no bundle me for her

How far away is your car from your home? I think it might be overkill , but it depends on how much you actually have to be outside!

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

Dh just left to drop off DS at my parents. He has on his Gap Warmest Jacket, a hat that also goes over his ears and has avelcro under his chin (so he doesnt take it off) and mittens.

The truck is also warm so it shouldnt be too bad

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

warming up my car 20 min before leaving he house. Leaing the boys in their PJ's putting on hats and putting a blanket over the bundle me..

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

Ds is going to my moms today so he will be in his bundle me (which is the best that thing keeps him so warm he sweats) a thick hat with ear flaaps, a onesie with undershirt and khakis plus socks. He is just going from the car to the house.

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

I had no choice but to take DD out in this cold. So, she has a one piece jumper on, with a onesie underneath, thick socks, a one piece snow suit on with a hood, and a hat on. I also put a thick blanket on her, and covered her hands because she freaked out when I put mittens on her.

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

We already have been out this morning. Had to go get formula, go to the post office, and drive my oldest to school. My littlest is in a sweat suit and my 2.5yr old is in a pair of jeans with a sweat shirt. I just bundled them up with thier winter coats, hats, & gloves. But I did make one mistake and that is I didn't warm up the car The car was finally warming up on my way home from running around. Should of asked for the remote start for Christmas

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

Jordana is in legging under her jeans, a long sleeve onsie, a tunic, her big jacket, socks and uggs in her stroller with the Bugaboo fleece on it. Of course a hat also. Mittens are in the bag, but her hands are buried in her sleeping bag-like stoller cover.

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

We're going to the doctor's today, so I am putting on his warm PJs (none of his outfits are warm enough IMO), and his snowsuit over that. Then, I'll put the Bundle Me in the carseat if I can figure it out, if I can't, I'll put a blanket around him and warm up the car for a bit in advance.

With all that, I think he'll be okay.

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

Ugh - reading this post makes me not want to run my errands today.

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

I took DS to daycare with a snowsuit on and a warm hat covering his ears...he went from the apt to the car to daycare, but it was FREEZING!!!

Re: If you are taking DC out in the COLD this morning

I am not going out until around 3pm, but DD is going to wear her white onesie with a fleece one over it. She'll be in her bundle me with a blanket over her chest area with a hat and mittens on.
