This Bear Kids Onesie by Birdlette Design was recently featured in Cookie Magazine. All of the t-shirts and onesies made by Birdlette Design are double-silkscreened by hand. Their tees and onesies feature a variety of cute animal silkscreens, in addition to the hot pink bear on the navy onesie shown above. Other animals include elephant, warthog, kangaroo, and guinea pigs, to name a few.

Onesies are available in sizes from 3-6 months to 18-24 months, and tees from 6-12 months to 6T. Both come in long or short-sleeve styles. As they run small, the manufacturer recommends ordering one size larger than your child would wear. You can purchase these tees or onesies at etsy.com for $28.

While browsing the Internet recently, I came across this item and had to find out more about it. The 7 A.M. Enfant Le Sac Igloo 500 looks like a mobile sleeping bag for your baby. Functioning as outerwear, however, it can be used in the cold weather to help give added protection to your baby from wind, rain, and snow, as it has a waterproof shell. The cotton lining keeps baby snug and warm. It has openings for car seat harness, so that it can be used in the car; a detachable cover that functions as a stroller blanket, and a zip-up hood. This just looks like it would be the perfect solution when you’re afraid to take your baby outside during the cold weather.

Normally selling for $158, the 7 A.M. Enfant Le Sac Igloo 500 is currently on sale for $91.99 (small) to $125.99 (large) at diapers.com.

DisneyShopping.com is currently having a semi-annual sale, with prices on kids apparel, toys, adult apparel, and more up to 65% off. For example, this adorable Hooded Personalized Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Robe is on sale for $10.99 (regularly $24.50) and is available in sizes from 2T to 4T.

Another bargain at the site is the Create-Your-Own Fleece Throw Blanket, which is on sale for $7.99 (regularly $19.95). You can personalize it by color, favorite character, and name. If you check out DisneyShopping.com, you’ll find additional bargains on clothing, toys, room decor, and much more.

babystyle.com is having a huge sale right now, with prices up to 70% off. One of the items they currently feature on sale is this cute Big Sister Definition Tee. This would be perfect for the 3 year old daughter of my best friend who just had a little boy about 3 weeks ago. She’s been feeling a bit left out, and this would remind her of her position in the family and its importance to her new baby brother.

The shirt is 100% cotton and available in size 2T for just $4.97 (regularly $20) at babystyle.com. You can get an extra 40% off some outlet items (I’m not sure if this one is included, at such a low price) using code XTRA40 at checkout. There are so many items on sale, you’re sure to find something you need at this site!

ebay.com can be a wonderful place to shop for baby and children’s items. In fact, it’s the first place I check when shopping online. Often, sellers on ebay receive new baby and children’s goods in a wholesale lot, which enables them to sell to you, the consumer, much more cheaply than some of the brand-name baby stores. Also, you can find parents who are sellling used baby clothing and baby gear that still has much life left, perfect if you don’t mind second-hand clothing or goods for your baby.

Personally, I always buy my son’s winter outerwear on ebay, second-hand. Winter coats and snowsuits are used for just one season, and hardly show any wear, so they are the perfect item to buy used. I have had much success selling used baby clothes on ebay as well. If you’ve never tried, it doesn’t cost much to sell on ebay, and their interface makes it easy to start selling.

Before buying from any ebay seller, check their feedback. You especially want to pay attention to any negative feedback they’ve received during the past 6 months. I wouldn’t necessarily reject a seller for having negative feedback, but if they repeatedly receive negative feedback about the same thing (for example, slow shipping times, excessive shipping prices, or items with defects) then I would look for another seller.

Also remember to check shipping rates, as some ebay sellers will offer free shipping on larger items that would usually require a high shipping rate. Whatever you’re looking for, ebay.com is a great place to start!

This is another item I just received from BarefootBella.net, and I’m just as pleased with the quality of it as I am with the tin tray I purchased from them. This Boys Skeleton Pirate Long Sleeve T-Shirt by S.P.UDZ has a nice, heavy feel to it, perfect for a long-seeved t-shirt which will normally be worn in the cooler fall, winter, and spring months. The pirate skeleton image on the front is perfect for the little boy who loves pirates and skeletons (which is my son to a T).

BarefootBella.net shipped the shirt to me in a matter of days, packaged quite nicely, at a low shipping rate. The shirt normally retails for $26, but is on sale right now for the terrific price of $10 at BarefootBella.net. It is still available in sizes 2T to 4.
