Brrr!

It's getting colder and colder around here. Temperatures hover between 1-5 degrees (celsius) during the day, and between -4 to 0 degrees at night. Brrr indeed!

So how do we keep the little turnip warm and toasty? (His nose turns red in true Rudolph fashion after 10 minutes of being out in the cold.)

#1 In a Foot Muff

We decided to get one of these after a week of lusting after other babies' foot muffs. 2 hours, 2 returns and 4 seperate trips to both Mamas and Papas AND Babies R Us later (Mom, you know the whole story!), DN had his own mobile bed!

The first time we zipped him up in it, he said, "So nice!". The inside is a soft, puffy sheepskin-like material and the outside's a powder blue suede. I really wanted to get this, but we needed something that would also go with our other stroller and anyway, this was 50% off. Show me a person who can't resist a bargain and I'll show you a non-Singaporean. Heh.

#2 In Woolly Slippers

I don't know what DN has against slippers, but he just won't wear them. Even when they're this cute! I am grateful for those days hours MINUTES when he deigns to put them on.


One thing I'm really grateful for though is how he LOVES his Uggs. Big phew.

#3 In a Spiffy New Coat

The two hand-me-down jackets that PF brought up were just not cutting it. In PF's own words, "Maybe in Genting...". So when the Boxing Day Sales started (WOOT!), we decided to see what Debenhams had to offer. We, or rather I, couldn't resist this woolly brown fisherman's coat with big buttons. The lining's a brown tartan, yummy.


The only downside is, it's achingly painful to walk next to DN now. He's more stylish than both of us put together... in a Marc Jacobs bag.
