Preferences

Well I have undecided.
I asked DH, what do you think is best:
1) Socks + Leg warmer + shortie Soaker
2) Thigh Highs + shortie Soaker
3) socks + longies
4) All in one, IE tights
I have undecided that I agree with DH, it really all depends on the situation.  Are you trying to match everything?  So you have separates that will match to create a pleasing outfit, without looking ridiculous?  Are you concerned about warmth which changing a diaper?  Will you have to change a diaper in 7 degree Celsius houses without working thermostats because you forgot to change the batteries? (Yes, and might I say that the $100 dollars to have the repair come out and tell me that was the problem, was just as annoying).  Are you concerned that some small child might pull off there socks?...and believe me thigh highs do not prevent this.  Right now I prefer tights if it will be going under something else, and I can use a diaper shit to help keep the tights on.  I think socks plus either longies or socks + leg warmer + shorty soaker are about the same in my book, Benefit of both of these only one item need to be removed with a diaper change.  However I think from my DD perspective, she would say the leg warmers + shorties is preferable, because it keeps her legs warm during the change up.  Mommy is leaning towards the three pieces too, because since the leg warmers are a bit more slim fitting they help to keep the socks on, and the shortie helps to keep the leg warmers up.  As a bonus, if it gets to warm the leg warmers can always come off...that is if spring/summer ever reaches our remote part of the world.  The benefit of the longies, is the look a little more like a pair of pants, but really I don't think my 11m old DD cares, or is worried about fashion at this moment.
Well that's that.  Cheers to you all, & happy sailing to Boston town ;).
