JJ Cole Toddler 1-3T Bundle Me Lite Review

JJ Cole Toddler 1-3T Bundle Me Lite
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
One my most wanted items for baby that I failed to have until now is a JJ Cole Toddler 1-3T Bundle Me Lite, Gray Circle from JJ Cole. While I have no reasons for not picking one up other than never seeing it on the shelf while shopping, I am reminded of why I wanted and needed this product so badly as the sleet and snow continues to fall mid-April here in the midwest.
The lite bundleme can be used with carseats, strollers and joggers. They are actually very simple to install and remove; I can see myself moving it back and forth between Elliot's seat and stroller on a regular basis without complaint. To install sit the bundleme into the carseat or stroller as you would if the child were to sit right away (there is a elastic strap on the backside to help hold it into place). Then take the harness from the carseat or stroller and place the pieces into the correct slots on the lite bundleme.
Now that these are in place, getting them adjusted is honestly easier than anything else we have used (including a everyday blanket) because between each check loop is a Velcro flap. Simply open the flap to lower the carsteat/stroller strap and replace. There is also a double zipper, one on each side; this makes it easier to get my little one in and out as needed.
I personally give this a huge plus, plus for the length of the lite bundleme toddler. Elliot is 13 months now and I would say will still be using this next two falls/winters if not longer. As you can see in the photo above the bottom of the bundleme nearly reach the swoop of my stroller. So he will continue use of it as long as he will the stroller itself.
The JJ Cole lite bundleme has a soft inner fabric and nylon outer shell which provides the ultimate in softness and comfort. There is no bulk to worry with and seems to nice and breathable for spring weather as well. This is nice considering our Elliot refuses to keep a blanket on his body when we go for walks. I like that it is wind resistant and I can use the this in place of that to help keep him secure from cool winds this time of year. The lite bundleme is also water resistant should you find yourself out in the rain on occasion (this happens to me a lot when shopping).
The lite bundleme is available in infant (up to 21 lbs or 1 year) and toddler (1-3 years) size and comes in 6 different colors currently including the grey circle pattern seen in this review. I can see so many benefits to using this product on a daily and suggest it to parents of newborns all the way to toddlers. It ideal for this time of year when the weather tends to be questionable.

Swaddledesigns Zzzipme Sack Fuzzy Puff Circle Review

Swaddledesigns Zzzipme Sack Fuzzy Puff Circle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
While this is smaller than other sleep sacks, this is intentional and there is no need to size up. If you size up, the neck and arm holes will be too big and your baby will be lost in the sack.
This is my favorite sleep sack partially because it is designed to fit babies more snugly ... not so much extra (and unnecessary) fabric for the baby to tangle in.
The main reason this sack is my favorite, though, is because it has a two-way zipper that makes dressing and diapering my daughter a DREAM compared with the regular top-down only zipper sacks (all the other brands, from what I can tell ... I've got 2 other brands). With a top-down only zipper, getting my fussy baby into this thing before bed is a challenge, to say the least. With this, though, No Problem!
Of course, the fact that this is so soft and snuggly doesn't hurt any. I wouldn't mind having one of these in my size! :)
The only drawback I found to this sack is that the neck hole isn't V-ed at all to keep the bulky fabric away from the baby's face area. I was worried that this might get in the way of our daughter's mouth while she was little tiny, so I didn't start using this until she was 3+ months old. Now that she's a bit larger and has more control of her neck I feel okay leaving her in it. Anyway, this is partially why you would definitely not want to size up on this sack ... you want the sack to be pretty well fitted around the neck and shoulders.
The lack of a V neck-line is the only reason I give this 4 stars instead of 5. I love it!!

JJ Cole Original Toddler Bundle Me Review

JJ Cole Original Toddler Bundle Me
Average Reviews:

Being an active runner, walker and sports enthusiast in Seattle means you can't just wait for a warm sunny day to exercise. The Bundle Me has been invaluable in allowing us to maintain our active lifestyle year round. Our two year old has been able to go jogging and on walks with us through ALL weather while staying cozy and warm. Even sitting through freezing cold late night soccer games in the Winter months!
We recommend this product to anyone with kids. After reading the other reviews I wanted to note that the Bundle Me is very large and spacious and can easily accomodate children up to 3 or 4 years old. We have had no issues at all with the zippers, even after washing and the zippers are a good part of what gives the Bundle Me it's versatility. As the weather warms up, the zippers can be opened or the top can zip off completely...leaving a comfortable pad at the bottom. The fact that it has holes already set for car seat and stroller harnesses make this one of the best products we have purchased for our child. Get it. You'll love it!

Swaddledesigns Zzzipme Sack Fuzzy Dots Review

Swaddledesigns Zzzipme Sack Fuzzy Dots

My 5 mo. old son has always slept swaddled. NOw that he moves around while he sleeps it is no longer safe so I bought this sleep sack. It is super soft and constructed well. I just don't really like the neckline. I feel as if it is too close to my son's mouth and could actually cover it if he moved around to much. I would prefer if it was a v-neck. For now I bought the Halo sleep sack in micro fleece and I feel pretty safe about it. Maybe I will go back to the Swaddledesigns sack in a couple months when he is bigger, give it a shot.

7A.M. ENFANT "Le Sac Igloo" Footmuff, Converts into a Single Panel Stroller and Car Seat Cover Review

7A.M. ENFANT Le Sac Igloo Footmuff, Converts into a Single Panel Stroller and Car Seat Cover
Average Reviews:

I was hesitant to purchase this item, even when i was able to purchase it for almost 75% off (I love these amazon deals). Let me tell you, after seeing how many things it can do, I would easily pay the $130 regular price for it. Even my husband was amazed!
First, do not be fooled into thinking this is a simple car seat cover or foot muff. It is MUCH more than that and will serve multiple functions for you and your family! It can easily be used as a snow suit for babies not able to walk (think of a portable sleeping bag for the baby), a car seat cover, a stroller cover, and a fleece blanket. It is truly amazing. My husband was worried about safety in terms of padding being IN the car seat while traveling (the extra blanket UNDER the baby). The item DOES have opening for a 5 point harness system AND works for the belts on a stroller. Which is even BETTER is that it can be seperated and be ONLY a cover for the top/ front of the car seat (so no padding in the back. The hood can unzip, fold down, and has a removeable fur lining on the top of it.
What I personally love best is the added warmth that can be removed. Because the fleece blanket can easily be taken out . . . it means when the weather becomes warmer (which is often does in the area I live), you can easily remove the fleece blanket, allowing the entire system to be lighter AND you have a fleece blanket if you JUST need to use that.
This item is truly amazing! It is adorable and multi-functional! You will NOT be disappointed!

7 A.M. Enfant Extendable Baby Bunting Bag Adaptable for Strollers Review

Average Reviews:

I got this on Amazon for $50 in black back in May so maybe they will have a deal like this again in the spring. I've used it all winter and am still using it. Wonderful product. I just put my son in a 1 piece fleece and he's warm and comfy in this bunting bag. It fits in our Peg Perego Si stroller perfectly. Easy to get our son in and out of this bunting bag. Love that it grows with our son. We already put one extension on and our son is now 8 months old. I think the quality is great. I would definitely recommend this product if it is less than the retail price because I think $190 for it is a bit steep.

JJ Cole Bundle Me Shearling Baby Hat Review

JJ Cole Bundle Me Shearling Baby Hat
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a beautiful hat--as one of the reviewers said, "For a Keebler elf." I was able to make the hat much bigger--to fit a 3 month plus baby by just removing the elastic from the back of the cap. Just take a seamripper or exacto knife and
1) slice the seam in the back of the cotton lining,
2) slice the seam inside headband to get to the elastic
3) slice the stitching on the elastic
4) cut the elastic out and discard it.
The whole operation can be done in about 5 minutes. You are left with a cap that fits the baby beautifully and has a split seam in the lining. If you care, you could spend 5 minutes sewing up the seam in the lining, or just leave it--it doesn't show when the hat is on the baby.
