Who's Afraid of Four Degrees Below Zero?



Not this guy.

For underneath that babyish hooded fleece suit lies . . .


BABY LONG UNDERWEAR, HELL YES.

Jack can officially be considered a member of the family now that he's clad in his L.L. Bean long underwear that Grandma wisely gave him for Christmas. The smallest size L.L. Bean sells is 3-6 months, but that's cool, because I specialize in giant infants that never wear sizes correlating to their actual age. Every single member of this family has at least one piece of L.L. Bean long underwear. Including my not-yet-one-month-old baby. 

We should totally do an ad campaign for L.L. Bean. We could even include our dog! Except I've never seen anything other than golden retrievers in that catalog, and certainly none of those golden retrievers have ever been photographed chewing on carrion.

So maybe our lifestyle wouldn't exactly appeal to their demographic. But the long underwear sure is nice. Just ask Jack.

Oh my. He's starting to look really cute. I cringe with the naked feet, but then we both know that it's only the females in the family that have extremity issues.

Use those gift cards to add to the wooly wonders!

Not to worry, Nana. The feet are covered by the fleece suit that goes over the long underwear.

Yep! I'm a big time LL Bean fan too. We even have a store here in Rochester, but I still shop online - I don't do malls

Jack is built like a football player already!

Bean should pay your family for the PR on your blog! Meanwhile, I'm glad all of you have the tools you need to stay warm.
