New Summer BabyLegs at Mom4Life
Here we are, on the brink of June. Cool weather has officially gone into hibernation for the summer, along with Buckley’s winter wardrobe.
What should be an emotionally neutral activity, packing up wool and fleece, was a little bittersweet. One pair of Baby Legs after another went into storage-the sweet ribbed white ones, the pink and green stripes, all into the same cardboard box.
If you aren’t familiar with Baby Legs, you should be. These little whole-leg warmers for tots have revolutionized baby outfits. They’re perfect for protecting little crawling knees as well as for stylish winter layers. They also make changing diapers much, much easier. But come summer, I figured Buckley’s Baby Legs days were over.
Cut to a few days later, when I receive a package from Mom4Life.com.
Mom4Life.com is a really great online store that functions sort of like a personal shopper. The owner, Heather, culls through all the products out 
there and offers the best and coolest of what works.
Wrapped up with a handwritten note were a new pair of Baby Legs. They screamed summer, with their thin neon stripes offset on a bright white background.
Peeking a little closer, I realized they were Baby Legs’ newest design. The material is a light, single layer of mesh that includes UV Protection. Um, awesome!
They have a rating of 50+, which is as high as it gets. The mesh is far from mesh-like (think stretch summer shirt, not basketball jersey), yet it remains breathable so baby’s legs don’t get sweaty. I slapped that pair right on Buckley, and we continued on our merry summer way.
Marti’s writings have appeared in Paste, Southword, Southern Living, and Lipstick Magazines.
She blogs about her culinary discoveries at blankpalate.blogspot.com
So, would you like to win some?
1.) To enter to win one pair of BabyLegs Cool with UV protection, visit Mom4Life and leave a comment here with another great product you love from their store! It is a very educational site! (You may enter once a day - subsequent entries don’t require you to answer the question).
Please don’t just comment with “Enter me” or “Sounds great”. That totally annoys me. Those entries are not eligible to win.
One winner will be chosen at random.
This contest will close June 4, 2009, 11:59 CST.
Contest closed! Congrats to Laura B!

I am really interested in the 10 Piece Potty Training PottieKit. We need constant reinforcement around my house and that looks like it covers everything. My neighbor is expecting a baby girl in a few months, so I would surely give the BabyLegs to her for next summer. It gets really hot here!
