ok, so i think i hate onesies, or at least i thought i did until i realized what a giant baby i have (countered with the fact that gerber must have their infant sizes wrong)..... here's the story..... so i was dressing Lena, in a onesie - a 3-6 MONTH SIZED ONESIE - and she is one month old. go figure.... anyway, putting her in a onesie is torture for me.... trying to get it over her head without scratching her or letting her head flop all over the place, feeling like i'm twisting her arm, it's just no fun for her or me.
i have to admit though i do laugh when the onesie gets caught on her head with just her face poking out.... she looks like some cute crazy creature with her short-sleeved ears.....
but anyway, once the torture of dressing her is over & snaps are snapped.... i realize how snug it is (uh, ya think?) but i'm bewildered because it's a 3-6 MONTH ONESIE!! long story short, i didn't want to go through the pain of twisting her body to get her in & out of this damn onesie again..... i decide to cut her out, while vowing how much I HATE ONESIES!! & she will never again wear one because it's just too difficult!
but after a new dawn & another attempt at a onesie, this time a carter's 3 month, i am rethinking my vow..... maybe just swear off gerber & anything smaller than 3 month sizes (at least for the next week when then she'll probably fit into 6 month sizes....)
here's a snapshot of the remains of the dreaded gerber onesie...... ironic that it says "little lady" on the front, huh?
a close up
the remains....

I hear ya! Unless we're going to the doctor or church I keep E in side snap tshirts and a diaper, especially if he's swaddled. It's so hot here that he's plenty warm so I just try to make it easy on myself. =) Oh, and Gerber stuff does run super small-it's the only stuff that actually fits him right now!
Girl Gerber onesies are sized WAY WAY off...Emery was never able to fit into those either. By the way Lena is absolutely beautiful!! Can't wait to meet her ;)
I put the onesies on legs first. Then just pull them up. They have those wide neck openings so you can do it. Then you don't have to do the over the head dance!! Good luck.
