Coat Nightmares

Mommy saw these adorable coats yesterday at Old Navy and decided that they would be cute for Aidan and Ellie especially since both of them hate the wind and rain and snow. Granted it won't protect their dainty little feet from getting wet as they detest but its got to be better then nothing right? Mommy took Aidan out this morning for his potty walk and it was freezing. There Mommy was in a fleece and PJ pants and Uggs in the pitch black darkness as the wind and rain from the trees came all around. Mommy was freezing but little Aidan was miserable. I think he was cold as he was crying the whole time they were outside and did his business lickity split quick! Mommy felt so bad for him and then she remembered the coats from yesterday and thought how perfect they would be to keep the little guy warm at least when he was outside. Little did Mommy know of the nightmare she was going to meet in getting these babies. Mommy woke up today and called 7 stores in her area trying to find a pink and red one in small for the babies and NO ONE had the pink in small!!! Now according to Old Navy measurements a Small is for dogs 14-16" long and 10-25 lbs which is perfect for my 2. I don't think Ellie would fit a medium well as thats 17-19" long which isn't a big deal as she is closer to 17" anyway but its for dogs 25-50lbs and Ellie at 18lbs will probably be swimming in that. Mommy thinks she might have to order these online since thats the only place it seems who has all the sizes still in all the colors but tax and shipping make them quite a bit more which won't please Daddy in the least.

Aren't they adorable!!







Still Mommy thinks they are great and might just use these as the pups Halloween costumes since they are proving to be so difficult to get. All the costume prices are so high right now so Mommy is going to go right after Halloween and buy a few when they are cheap for next year but it still leads the problem for this year and the pups Halloween party so maybe these jackets will have to do double duty until next year. Mommy is going to try a few more stores now....
