So, ironically, we do now have one wish-list item for Ian. And I can't put it on the Amazon wish list - because I can't find it online. SIGH.
In Babies R Us, in the store brand, they have a sleep gown layette set (alas, I haven't found the gowns by themselves, which is actually all we're interested in). These are similar to but not the same as the sleep gowns from Carter's, etc. Light/medium weight soft cotton, long sleeves, long gown with a lightly-elastic bottom (that is, not closed as sleep sacks are)...and snaps the full length from the neck to the bottom of the gown in front.
Those snaps are the differentiating factor from the other common gowns. We ADORE them. (We never really used the gowns with Drew: our old house was harder to keep the bedroom at a good temp, and he was wearing warmer sleepers than Ian needs when he's in his crib.)
I haven't been able to find them on the Babies R Us website, only in the store.
We've got two of them, in 0-3 months. I'd love two more for that size, and 4-5 in the 3-6 month size. We can get by without them, but it's so much easier to get him in/out of these two than the others.
