Happy weekend! This time of the year always makes me happy for a purchase I made on a whim a few years ago: one of these woobee plush blankets from Rain or Shine Kids (I think I got it through Baby Steals). The blanket is plush on one side, and nylon on the other, and there are two straps that allow you to attach it wherever you want — so it’s the perfect fall layer for your stroller, carseat, or baby carrier, and it can even be used as a picnic blanket or changing pad in a pinch. It’s much more lightweight (and removable) than our heavy-duty winter stroller bunting, so it’s perfect for this “is it cold? humid? hot? windy?” kind of weather. It’s $58 at Amazon (which seems to be low in stock but has more on the way). Rain or Shine Kids Woobee Plush Blanket
