Am I missing the infant/toddler sizes? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-jacket-ideas#post-2659611 Wed, 30 Nov 2016 21:43:18 +0000 woodentulip 2659611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got these ones this year:</p> <p><a href="http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/88753?page=puff-n-stuff-jacket-little-girl&#038;feat=79616-pprrright" rel="nofollow">http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/88753?page=puff-n-stuff-jacket-little-girl&#038;feat=79616-pprrright</a></p> <p>They are nice and thin, wash so well, and our neighbour's son is on his third year in his and it is still looking sharp! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-jacket-ideas#post-2659603 Wed, 30 Nov 2016 21:29:22 +0000 Dahlia 2659603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just got the LLBean power puffer and we love it. It seems super warm, and while it's too puffy to wear in the car seat it's not so puffy that it limits her movement (she's 16 months and has only been walking for about 2 months). We got a 2T and she'll probably wear it next year as well. It does come in smaller sizes and I think the 12-18 month would fit her well now (32 inches tall, 25 pounds)<br /> <a href="http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/79616?page=infants-and-toddlers-power-puffer-jacket" rel="nofollow">http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/79616?page=infants-and-toddlers-power-puffer-jacket</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-jacket-ideas#post-2659583 Wed, 30 Nov 2016 20:23:41 +0000 peaches1038 2659583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought DS a Columbia jacket that works great! Nice and warm but still thin enough to wear safely in the car seat. It's called the double trouble.

Ideally I'd like something warm but not bulky. They have big bulky coats but as new walkers they have a hard time moving around in them. Any ideas? We'd need something that comes in 12-18 month size, not just 2T. </p>
