Daddy socks = baby legs

If you are a mom that is hip to baby clothing trends then you have already heard of "baby legs". They are sort of like legwarmers for babies (or kids for that matter) that go from the upper thigh to the ankle to keep their legs warm, they can be used like tights for girls without having to fuss with pulling them over a diaper making changing them easier and keeps their little knees protected when they are crawling. I was going buy buy some, but then I had an idea.

I went into Joe's sock drawer and got a pair of socks that he no longer wore because they were too tight. I cut the toes off and voila .... baby legs! They are pretty ghetto I will admit, but I think they look cute since the heel of the sock hits him right at the knee and gives him extra padding. They work really well when he is wearing shorts, a onesie or just a diaper and is crawling around on cold, stone floors. It is too hot here to have him wear pants all the time. Plus, I think the fact that they are made from tube socks makes him look tough ;)
