The onesies are washed and folded.


Since this baby will spend the first three months of his life enduring a blazing hot Arizona summer, all he needs are onesies and light weight swaddling blankets. This week, I washed and folded his supply. They are tucked in his changing table and ready to go.

These are my favorite swaddling blankets. I hadn't discovered them in time to swaddle Stella, so her swaddling blankets were 45 inch squares of unfinished jersey fabric. They were perfect, but I think these aden + anais blankets will breathe better in the summer heat. They get softer and fluffier with each wash. I can't wait to wrap him up.

8 more weeks!

  5. I'm dying to get out my onesies to wash and fold them away until say around May 9th when they will be getting lots of use :). Those swaddling blankets are the best, so glad I have more then just one this time around. I love these posts and the countdown!

  7. I'm about 5 weeks behind you with my 4th, and OH can I TELL YOU that those Aden + Anais are my favorites?! BY FAR the best we have ever used (and we've used lots)

    Good luck!! I love the countdown stretch- clean folded tiny onesies are heaven.

  11. Love, love, love, LOVE Aden&Anais muslin wraps. My little on is 7 months old and we still use them on a daily basis. (Though not for swaddling.) They are so versatile! He loves how they feel and I see him kneading them with his little pudgy hands....
