Need a cute Christmas present for a toddler?
These sock monkey shirts, made by Morfs and sold online at Target, are new faves in the house. I grin like a fool when I see the girls wearing them. Can you blame me? They have attached long sleeves made of the same knitted sock material as the monkey. Could Not Be Any Cuter. It was pouring rain and a little chilly here today, and the girls were warm and snug in their little shirts.
The picture I would have killed to have, by the way, was the sight that greeted us when we returned to my folks' house after dropping the ailing Nikon D300 off (yet again) for repair. Apparently my mom was NOT letting these new shirts get stained on her watch, so before she gave the girls a messy lunch she cloaked their arms in saran wrap. Hee!!! It worked like a charm, but dang was it funny looking. Oh well, I'll just have to remember the image. We got a new purse camera while we were at the store, so it should be charged up and ready to capture priceless moments like that one in, oh, about four hours or so.
Note: If you order a shirt from Target, or anywhere online actually, don't forget to go to retailmenot.com and search for a coupon code first. The savings are awesome.

Now those my friend are adorable! Heh...the arms are just too cute. After all those cameras in the last post with the girl's own photo crew it's surprising to think the 'arms covered in Saran' missed out on being captured. Oh well, I'm sure it will happen again as these shirts are sure to get lots of wear.
ReplyDeleteOK...going to give it a try...Rosie in brown, Marie in red??
Thanks for the coupon tip...I love finding new sites to score deals on! Here's another great site for coupons: naughtycodes.com - then click on site map. We got $200.00 off a new Lap top and $100.00 off a new Camera via this site!
ReplyDeleteI have to order one for my little monkey. Just wonder what color to order.
ReplyDeleteI also like to go through ebates. You get cash back from shopping online. It isn't much but better than nothing. I also belong to Sunsine Rewards and shop through their site too. If I order online I want to at least get back something!
Thanks for the cute shirt idea.
MUST have..those are so cute. Of course the models could make a gunny sack look adorable.
ReplyDeleteLove the monkey shirts and the new look of the blog. I would love to see a snowflake fall where you live! Can you believe it has neem 75 here for the past four days? Winter who?
ReplyDeleteLove the shirts. Pretty ingenious of your mother. Hope your camera fix is quick.
ReplyDeleteI'm so LOVING the monkey shirts! I have to go check if they ship to Canada. I can just imagine the plastic wrap sleeves ... maybe I'll borrow that idea ...
ReplyDeleteThose shirts are just silly cute. Definitely going on the Christmas list. I'm a Target junkie -- how is that I've never seen this stuff before?
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting the info for the coupon site. I just love a good deal : )
You always dress Rose and Marie in the cutest clothes! They are little fashionistas.
ReplyDeletei MUST have one of those shirts!! and thanks for the coupon tip girl!
ReplyDeleteby the way, doing a fundraiser for a Wii on my blog, no need to even purchase a ticket if you want to be in for the drawing!
The shirts are very cute! But I've noticed if I pay like over $10 on clothing for the kiddo, it is ruined in the first wearing. I'd need to wrap her from head to toe with saran wrap lol

ReplyDeleteLove those sock monkey shirts. I'll be heading over to Target next :-)
Your daughters are absolutely adorable! Love your blog. I'll certainly be checking back!
Love those monkey shirts!! Definetely need the coupon though! The girls are soo cute!
ReplyDeleteThose shirts are fantastic! Where did you get the extra material?
ReplyDelete$40? Really? I think those shirts are super cute (especially with your beautiful girlies in them) but I just cannot make myself pay that much for a shirt that will probably have a ketchup stain on it in less than a month :). I do love them though!
ReplyDeleteAnonymous...
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with you! $40 is way too much for a shirt for a toddler, no matter how 'cute' it is.
Well, there is one little munchkin that I know who will have a cut little monkey shirt and pants. She loves monkeys so much and has a monkey shirt that is getting pretty worn out and she will soon have outgrown it. Thanks for the tip. Couldn't find the coupon though. It said it was expired or something...DARN.
ReplyDeleteI love the sleeves on those shirts. ~A~
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link to the coupons. Love the new look of your blog!
ReplyDeleteCould not be any cuter is right! Wow, they are growing up so fast!
