Anyone still put their toddler (2 year +) in a sleep sack? If so, which one?
My 2yo still wears a Halo Sleepsack to bed every night. I'd like to try a blanket, but I'm afraid she will just kick it off and freeze during the night.
We just ordered the next size Sleepsack, but I'm wondering if there are other brands you like.

I really liked the early walker sleep sacks by Halo, the ones with the openings at the bottom for their feet to stick out. We used them until age 2 and sometimes my son asks for it now, at age 3!

@pinkcupcake: LO is only 18 months, but he also hates blankets. He kicks them off but then wakes up in the middle of the night b/c he's cold. So I don't see us stopping the sleep sack anytime soon.
We love the Baby DeeDee sleep sacks! The lite version is perfect right now. We have a heavy one, but don't use it as much since he's a hot little guy!

We just stopped last week! I was putting them on backwards and she was still taking them off!

We use baby dee dee because it's really cold. We tried the blanket route but she woke up at 4am screaming! She always throws the blanket off of her and her sleep has been much better with her in the sack. She'll be 2 next month.

@2PeasinaPod: @Freckles: I was looking at the Baby Deedees! They're so pricey, though, and since she's 2, I wasn't sure how much use she would get out of the largest size. She's about 25 LBS right now - do you guys think she could wear the largest size for awhile?

@pinkcupcake: I think my LO weighs more than her so she'll be fine. She still has quite a bit of room lengthwise. The babydeedee was worth it for us since it is winter 6 months out of the year. I have her in fleece pjs under her sleep sack. The nice thing about the babydeedee is that i don't have to put her in socks and her feet are still warm. We'll probably use it for another 2 months.

We use fleece footed sleepers instead of sleep sacks - put them on over her pjs

@Freckles: Ok, thanks! I think I'm going to order one. 
Do you have the Lite one as well? I'm wondering if I should go with that one instead since it's almost spring here and we have the house at 70 all the time.

@pinkcupcake: Definitely. LO is 24 pounds right now and still has a good amount of room at the bottom of the sleep sack. We literally just ordered it, and hope it will last him through 3 years old.
