Hi Jenn! I just wanted to send a quick note to tell you that our
adorable new bloak was perfect for our Chicago trip! There was no
way I was going to be able to find a winter coat in Spring in Florida.
I paired a medium weight coat with our super-snugly bloak and
Ella stayed warm and comfy! In fact, she didn't even need the coat
beneath it most times. And I loved that I could keep her legs nice and
warm by wrapping the extra fabric around them too.
Our new bloak was especially handy during travel! I used it as a
nursing cover & blanket on the plane and just tossed it on her
before we exited the airport. Since we were travelling without my
husband, I wore Ella in a carrier. It was super easy to slide the
bloak on while she was strapped to me and then transfer her into the
car seat without any fuss. And I'm so glad that, unlike all the
clothes she's rapidly outgrowing, Ella will fit into both her regular
& knit bloaks for a long time. Thanks again for creating a baby
product that is truly practical!
Today was yet another rainy Florida day, so I'm thrilled that I
can order a rain bloak this week! I have no idea how I'm supposed to
keep Ella dry between the car and our destinations when sideways rain
defeats our umbrella.

I just love the Bloak. My son is so uncomfortable in bulky coats, and
they are just not practical for an infant. So what do you do if it is
30 degrees with lots of wind and you have to go outside with baby? Do
you put one of the bulky coats on him or her and then go to the car?
Then do you stand outside and undress them out of the coat because the
coat is unsafe in the car seat? They get cold in that amount of time
too and so do you having to stand in the cold undressing them. It is
SO impractical and difficult. Then I came across this product. I put
it on Alexander and he loves it. It keeps him warm outside and the
hood keeps the wind from getting in his ears. Putting him in the car
seat is a breeze. You just move the bloak over and buckle the
seatbelts and bam, you are ready to ride in under one minute, and your
little bundle of joy is warm and snugly. Alexander always is so
comfy in his bloak he is asleep before we get to our destination. When
I pull him out of the car seat, I wrap the bloak all the way around him
like a blanket. It is a great product and I am SO glad I found it. I
will say a big thanks to Jennifer for thinking of it.

I am just writing to tell you how much we LOVE our baby bloak! It has
been the best thing ever. We used to use the Bundle Me in the infant
seat but once she moved to the convertible seat, I didn't have anything
to use. I tried blankets but my daughter would always kick them off.
Since we discovered the baby bloak, she stays warm and I haven't had
to replace the blanket over and over. Thank you so much for keeping my
daughter warm and snuggly!

We got our Bloak a few days ago and we love it!! Living in Rhode
Island we never know what the weather is going to be like!! I can put
Matt in the infant carrier and then put his Bloak on and he's happy as
a clam, and so am I...I know he's going to be warm and safe!! I also
like that I can leave it on him when I walk into a store or put him in
a shopping cart and he's not uncovered!!
Thanks for this great invention!!

Wow, that was quick shipping! Our bloak arrived today and it is awesome!
The waffle weave fabric makes it the perfect weight for a windy Florida
day, like today was. Ella generally tolerates anything I put on her,
but she actually seemed to like her bloak! She cuddled with it in her
stroller for our whole walk. :) Thanks for coming up with such a cool & useful product! We love it!

We got and used our rain bloak today!! It is fantastic. We were having a
dreary, rainy day here, and the bloak made it so easy to still take
Evan out and transfer him from carseat to stroller. It is the perfect
weight for cooler weather, but won't be too heavy during the warm
spring days either. Evan also loves playing with the fabric and
rubbing the soft inside on his face. Thank you sooo much, we both are
so happy with our rain bloak!!
