What does, or did, your baby wear? Not so much older babies but newborns to 3 months old. "Real" clothes, like a top (onesie or regular shirt) and pants or sleepers?
I realized the other day that Thomas lives in sleepers. We've got piles of them and they're so much easier to deal with than shirts and pants. That and I couldn't find the long sleeved onesies that I knew I had stored somewhere so sleepers it was. :hehe: Now that I've found the box of clothes he's wearing 'real' clothes but I have to admit that I prefer sleepers.

90% of the time it was sleepers and the first few weeks it was gowns, especially at night, because of how easy it made diaper changes. I didn't like seperates in the newborn phase because the shirts always seemed to ride up and look uncomfy. I did put them in "real clothes" (jeans and onsies, sweaters, etc.) when we were going out. I figured if I was getting dressed so could they :hehe: Oh yeah, did I mention that I lived in sleepers for the newborn phase too??? :blush:

Those gowns with the elastic at the bottom? Unless we were/are leaving the house, that's pretty much what I dress babies in. I liked shorts and t-shirts (not onesies) for Cash at that age for diaper changing ease when going out & about, but it's hard to find them in tiny sizes. I will probably put Daisy in little sundresses as we go out more.
Footie sleeper PJs are my least favorite baby item ever. I had 2 for Cash and I think he wore one once. I have a ton for Daisy and every time I start to try to wrestle her into one, I give up and put a gown on her instead.

My favorite for Aidan were gowns or the side-snap shirts with footed pants :love:
I loved those...

Most of the time they were in onesies. If it was chilly out they wore pants as well.

For the first few weeks it was sleepers. I never liked gowns because Charlie moved so much that by the end of the nap or night they'd be up by his shoulders. :rolleyes: This time I haven't even attempted it because John never stops moving.
John now wears onesies and pants out. Today I even put him in a romper. (So cute!) I figure if I'm going to get up and get dressed so should he. I'm not a fan of the non-onesie shirts when they're this itty bitty because I hate when they ride up in the car seat, though.

It was sleepers and gowns for the first few weeks. After that, it was onesies and pants or baby legs. Whatever looked like it was comfy.:))
Sleepers, onesies, gowns. Nothing fancy. I still don't put anything fancy on Matt (I don't like the whole jean thing--it look so uncomfy!)

Shane only wore sleepers and gowns at night and I dressed him in onesies and pants or shorts. I also hated regular shirts at that age. Now I hate onesies.
Onesies and shorts rompers...since this is the desert! ;) At night the gowns or I also liked zip up sleepers....no snaps to figure out in the middle of the night. ;)

We always had on sleepers until about the beginning of May, but now it's way too hot for that. I like onesies most of the time now. She also wears the little onesie outfits with the short legs in them. Know what I'm talking about? A little more like actual clothing since we go to daycare but still pretty convenient.

Pretty much onesies and the occasional romper. It's hot an humid here, so the less he wears the better. I'm not too sure what a sleeper is...?

I wasn't sure either but I"m assuming it's this: http://www.babyearth.com/images/images_big/10-5644-01.jpg

Yup, that's what I was talking about. Oops. It never occurred to me that someone wouldn't know what I meant. :blush:

Isabella lived in sleepers for the first probably 3 or so months (or more...) Then again she was born in November and it was cold.
Otherwise little organic cotton yoga pants and onesies or the kimono shirts that button on the sides.

OMG Cash lived in those Kimono shirts for the first month or so. He haaaated things going over his head, so I put those on him all the time if he wasn't in a gown

Oh man... I'm too lazy for those! John poops like 20x a day. That's a lot of taking baby feet and legs in and out of clothes!

We loved those gowns (SO EASY for diaper changes) for the first 3-4 weeks and then it was a lot of regular clothes during the day. At night, I loved the zip up sack sleepers. Very easy too.
