On to today's post!
We may not have the write gloves, scarves or socks for the girls yet BUT the one thing I have figured out is how to keep their little legs warm. Yes, of course we have snow pants for both of them which does the trick for major snow play times but there is no way I can run errands with kids in snow pants. So the everyday, underneath their normal clothes solution? BABY LEGS! I bought two pairs of these a while back because I had been told how great they were for helping to protect little crawlers legs (and they are!). Then we did this hike and I had the idea to put both girls in baby legs to give them another layer under their jeans. It worked! They were warm and didn't complain. I loved them so much I contacted them to see if I could do a review and giveaway for them and they said yes! So what are baby legs?
Kind of a cross between 80s style leg warmers, stockings and socks. They are one size fits most (and they do fit both of my girls!) and come in a ton of styles and colors. You can find the two pictured here.
Why are they so great? Well, having one product that both girls can wear is pretty amazing. But also because they don't have a waist band there is no uncomfortable bunching around their tummies, no need to pull down one more thing to change a diaper or when Sam needs to go potty but their legs still stay super warm!
Avery also wears them around the house during the day with just a onsie. She stays warm, knees protected but diaper changing so much easier.
The Baby Legs company has other products too. Like great tights.
And adorable socks, that actually stay on!
Combine the socks with the leg warmers and I have one warm and happy baby!!
I would absolutely recommend this product to ANYONE!
And isn't that logo so cute? Purple dot leg warmers can be found here.
Baby Legs also offers an Organic line!!! Wohoo! Love when companies make this an option. I try my best to buy organic whenever it is available and love when companies go that extra mile to help out.
SO, the good news for all of you? Baby Legs is giving all of you a 20% discount on your entire purchase for one month from today!!! Just use coupon code - SAMANDAVERY20. So awesome.
PLUS one lucky reader will get a grab bag of baby legs all their own! Grab bag includes 2 leg warmers, one pair of socks and one pair of tights (or two pairs of socks if its a boy).

I've been seeing these more and more lately; wish they'd been around when my daughter was that age! :-)

l the rodeo queen girls tights! Brianna hates wearing pants, but these tights seem like a great option so she can still wear skirts during the winter!
