It has been a total nightmare getting Eva to wear a jacket. She practically insists on only wearing a fleece jacket - which it is now too cold to just wear a fleece. The only jacket she is semi inclined to wear is a Nike jacket that is a size 2T (yes the jacket was bought just for her, not a Gracie hand-me-down, but we thought she might have grown more than she has), so when she wears this jacket the sleeves are WAY too long. She won't permit you to flip the cuff, which would look great b/c the jacket is reversible. So she ends up looking like "Bob Gregory's kid" (for those of you who have no clue who Bob Gregory is he was a local weather man) and it is nearly impossible to get her in the car seat wearing this jacket.
So I found a jacket (and hat) at L.L.Bean -- it's too cute! And I prayed that she would be willing to wear it and (drum roll please....) YES she LOVES it!!! She likes wearing both the jacket and the hat! Now I did have to pay more for it but honestly I would have paid even more to not have to fight with her every time we went anywhere - whew!
Now Grace wants one - of course:-)
Need to post a pic of Eva IN the jacket - but here is the life savor!
