The Clothing Dilemma

Brooke spends most (when I say most, I mean about 99%) of her time in pajamas - nice comfy ones that have footies and sip or snap up the front. This is partly because of ease (and maybe laziness) because they make changing diapers much easier and faster. Since I am doing this about 10X a day, every second counts. The main reason she spends all of her time in pj's is actually for her own benefit. Brooke hates things pulled over her head. When I try to put "real" clothes on her, it puts her into such a screaming frenzy that its just not worth it. Its cruel to make her go through that, so I just really dont do it.

Today I decided to risk it. After her daily morning blowout (meaning her pjs were no longer able to be worn) I decided to put her into a onesie and jeans instead of another pair of pjs. Brooke has been given a great deal of clothing as gifts, and lots of onesies. Unfortunately, many of them are short sleeved (um, Chicago winter?) and create a bit of a problem. A while ago I went out and bought her a sweater so we could put some use to those short sleeve onesies.

The great thing about this sweater is that you can still see the onesie underneath, so those short-sleeved tshirts are put to good use.

But, there is also a small problem with this sweater ...




















So after all that effort, two random ladies at Target got to see how cute she looked before she blew out of that outfit. She had it on for less than three hours. Now we are back in good-old-pajamas.
