So Malakai is almost one. I cannot believe it. We've come so far from his days in the NICU and it almost seems like it was someone else's life. I'm so glad he is healthy and strong today but we do have a ways to go. I want to share with you the best Fall baby boy fashion to grab at one of our favorite stores.
When Malakai was in the NICU, the best preemie clothes we were able to find were at Carters. Their original bodysuit is something that I've used with all my kids and have found it to last longer and it was more durable than the ones you grab off the shelf at the supermarket. For the preemie clothes it gave my son the sense that he wasn't a hospital patient. He was dressed so cute like a baby should be and the clothes actually fit his tiny body. Most premature clothes are wide and short. The Carters preemie clothes are close to the skin, give them actual designs on the clothes and were soft enough for them to be comfortable.
When Carters asked me to grab some items from their new Fall line, I was excited because of how much of their items we already own. However, being a baby photographer is not my thing and I think Malakai fell over 5-6 times. We went to our local pond and changed him a bunch of times into the cutest baby boy fashion you've ever seen.
When choosing a wardrobe for a baby, think comfort. I think some new moms don't realize how often they'll be changing a baby and how accessible a baby's bottom needs to be for diaper changes. I love to get packs of the original bodysuit and always have a layer under my babies regular clothing. I also love the comfy pants that Carters has to offer. I also grab their Sleep & Play jammie's but I try to stay away from the fleece. Because Malakai was a micro-preemie, he over heats a lot. He cotton is plenty warm for him and it does the trick. It's also an experience thing when trying to figure out what works for your baby. Go ahead and try new things and see if it works for your family.
Carters clothes are so comfortable for babies and it makes a big difference in how they feel staying in certain items all day. Softness and durability are key when looking for baby fashion. There are so many fads going around and while they're all adorable, you have to ask yourself if it's really worth it for them to wear for a short amount of time for the money you're spending. From my experience it's all about comfort and sustainability which Carters clothing fits into those categories perfectly. 
When I am looking at baby boy or baby girl clothes, I want something that will last and that will also not break my budget. There are very few things that I find are actually worth spending the big bucks on like soft sole shoes and a good baby carrier.
Carters always has great sales and you never have to pay full price for anything, ever. If you're on their email list, they send you coupons all the time. They also have a reward program and the best thing is is that it's all traceable in their system so you don't have to go digging for the previous receipt. We love Carters clothing for our baby boy but I was especially appreciative that they had the best preemie clothes on the market. Use the coupon below for more savings!
