Mama Runs With Scissors Review/Giveaway! *CLOSED*

This giveaway is now CLOSED!  The winner drawn via random.org was comment number 22, Jennifer W!  You will be contacted shortly and will have 48 hours to respond.  Thanks for entering, everyone!

Do you remember the Kool Kid legs we posted about in ?  We loved them so much that we contacted Mama Runs With Scissors’ etsy shop to see if she’d like to participate in Boy’s Fashion Month, and luckily for us (and you!) she did!  We were sent a long-sleeved tie onesie in black with coordinating argyle gray and black Kool Kid legs and a hat, and from the moment we laid our eyes on it, we were in love.  The dark argyle pattern gives it a subtle sophistication that is delightful in contrast to a chubby, giggly little boy.

The onesie fits Henry snugly, with a little room to grow.  His diapers peeked out at the edges where the crotch snaps together, but that’s nothing new when you use cloth diapers.  The hat is adorable, perfect for a trip to the pumpkin patch or a fall festival, but perhaps too thin for winter winds.  My very favorite thing about it was the way it stood straight up, making Henry look like a punky little gnome.

The Kool Kid legs are thick and soft, with an important difference from the other baby leggings we own.  Our other baby legs have bands at the top and bottom of the leggings that are the same size.  They can be worn in either direction, and they usually require a few tugs to pull them back up.  Henry considers any interruption during playtime The End of All Things, so sometimes this task results in devastating consequences.  The Kool Kid legs have a thicker band at the top, so they stay perched at the top of pudgy thighs.  I watched Henry crawl, wrestle with the dog,  roll around, and still the legs were comfortably secure.  I checked after a few hours to see if they were squeezing too much (another issue have with our other baby leggings-red marks from where they squished fat thighs) and while there were slight indentations, they weren’t the usual red or uncomfortable-looking marks I’m used to seeing.

Are you interested in winning your very own onesie/hat/Kool Kids set?  We’re excited to announce that Jennifer will give away any onesie/hat/Kool Kids set in her shop!  Here are the rules:
