Weekly Wardrobe: Petites Frites Bibs

When my older daughter was born, I received a gift of seven bibs, each one embroidered with a different day of the week. An adorable concept...if only the bibs hadn't been white. Once she grew and moved on to solid foods, it wasn't long before those beautiful bibs were permanently stained with mashed peas and peach puree. The "Friday" bib looked more like "Fdy," while "Sunday" became just plain old "day." (Easy for a sleep-deprived mom to figure out which bib to wear, but somehow I don't think that was the point...) That's why we can appreciate the Day-of-the-Week Bib Set from Petites Frites, a collection that is as pleasing to the eye as it is to the touch. Made from an ultra-soft, two-ply cotton blend and colored with baby-friendly dyes, these bibs come in two assortments-rainbow and cornwall-and are awash in a eye-popping palette that will stand up to spit-up, strained peas and everything in between. We're especially fond of the mood monikers, a different one reserved for each day of the week. We can relate to "Foggy Friday," and are optimistic for a "Sunday Funday."

In a Nutshell: Pack a little punch into your baby's mealtime routine with a variety of bibs that will get you through all those round-the-clock feedings.
