Babies seem to be just little money pits...very cute, but money pits just the same.  We buy clothes and our daughter wears them a month and then they are too small....go buy more!!!  So I was not at all interested in purchasing these for her to wear for a month and then throw away.  My wife talked me into it and we got them a little big so she could grow into them. It has been 6 months and she still wears them and they still look great.  One review says they are hard to put on, but I don't think they are all that hard and they never get pulled off.  My daughter wears these every evening and they still look good and have held up perfectly.  And on top of all the practical reasons to get these, they are incredibly cute.  I would highly recommend them.
