As soon as I put Xander's hat on at daycare, all the ladies swarm him because he looks sooooooo adorable in his hat! I need to take a picture for you all! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-jacket-what-to-do-you-do-car-to-building#post-1210214 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 09:05:27 +0000 mediagirl 1210214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I put her hat on (a wool one) and wrap her jacket around her as we bolt for the door. I see too many parents pulling their kids out of their carseats with big, bulky jackets on. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-jacket-what-to-do-you-do-car-to-building#post-1210210 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 09:02:00 +0000 Cherrybee 1210210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I fold a fleecy baby blanket up so that it is double thickness and tuck it around her in the car seat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-jacket-what-to-do-you-do-car-to-building#post-1210201 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 09:00:02 +0000 Smurfette 1210201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: We still are using the infant seat, but usually leave in the car. I will take it in tonight, so it isn't cold when I strap her in. I don't take it in to day care cause they changed where you have to leave them, so don't have as much room. But that reminds me, I have mittens, so I need to get those out and try them out tomorrow. Although I am sure she will rip them in 5 secs.<br /> @Silva: Yes, I can run out the car and turn it on and then get her strapped in the car seat inside the house. These mornings make me wish we had a garage!<br /> @blackbird: You need a hat, just for the cuteness factor :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-jacket-what-to-do-you-do-car-to-building#post-1210168 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 08:47:40 +0000 blackbird 1210168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use a cable knit blanket. E seems totally unphased by it all for the short walk </p> <p>I don't even have a hat, ha. Daycare has heat :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-jacket-what-to-do-you-do-car-to-building#post-1210166 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 08:46:28 +0000 JoJoGirl 1210166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use her big puffy coat as a blanket :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-jacket-what-to-do-you-do-car-to-building#post-1210160 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 08:45:15 +0000 swurlygurl 1210160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't really do anything. She has on a fleece or cotton jacket, socks and a hat, and then I just don't linger. I figure a couple minutes isn't going to hurt her. She doesn't seem to mind, so... </p> <p>BUT, I haven't taken her out in weather that's been colder than 30 yet, so I can't comment to below freezing weather yet! In that case, I'd probably just wrap her up in a blanket. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-jacket-what-to-do-you-do-car-to-building#post-1210150 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 08:41:49 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1210150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Remember a lot of heat is lost through the head. So a good hat plus a blanket is often enough just to run the twenty steps from car to daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-jacket-what-to-do-you-do-car-to-building#post-1210142 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 08:37:47 +0000 Silva 1210142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hat &amp; blankets. the infant seat keeps her toasty! do you have to ability to warm the car up ahead of time? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-jacket-what-to-do-you-do-car-to-building#post-1210141 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 08:37:41 +0000 littlek 1210141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I park as close to the door and run. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-jacket-what-to-do-you-do-car-to-building#post-1210138 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 08:35:13 +0000 Adira 1210138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are you still using the infant bucket seat or have you moved to a convertible?</p> <p>We're using the infant seat, so for Xander, I put on his hats and mittens and then wrap a blanket around him (and tuck it under his feet to keep them warm). So far that seems to work for us! Not sure what we'll do when we move to a convertible seat though... I guess buy a jacket, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-jacket-what-to-do-you-do-car-to-building#post-1210129 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 08:33:27 +0000 Smurfette 1210129@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It is supposed to be below freezing tonight and in the AM. So I am not sure what to do when moving R from the car to day care. Just wrapping her in a blanket doesn't seem like it is enough. </p> <p>What do you do? </p>
