Apparently, onesies are meant to fill in the gap from the lack of instruction manuals:
and warning labels:
Though I suppose they do have other purposes like stating parental political beliefs:
In any case, isn't it funny how much goes into what a baby wears? I mean, what do they care?? Don't get me wrong -- I'm the first one to stop Mo if he's leaving the house with Zia dressed in a way that I don't determine to be fit for public. My kid may be naturally cute, but let's be sure to enhance it so there's no confusion, please!
Some of the stuff is just silly, though. As adorable as I think that many of the pockets on pants are -- take for instance cargo pants -- so cute! But what's the point of pockets on baby clothes? Is he supposed to store his pacifier in there and take it out when he needs it? Stuff in a rag to wipe his own face when he drools and spits up all over? A parent can dream! (Come to think of it, perhaps that's why they have pockets -- a parent designed them, using the 'if you build it, they will come mentality'...)
In any case, there may not be a point, but it sure is fun to get sucked into the cuteness of the pointlessness and make sure that my kid is looking as adorable as possible! Though in used stuff as much as possible, because what's the point of buying new clothes they'll wear for three months??
lol i love the solidarity onesie.
