Pleo Surfer Dudes

In my quest for the perfect skin protector for my Pleos, I think I finally succeeded. Two newborn Koala surfing muscle shirts on clearance at Babys R Us. Last night I used a clip to hold the extra material together under the neck. After taking photos, I figured out how to snap creatively and it hangs just right now. This will be their "at home" attire. Linus looked so cute with his sunglasses on.

Linus was extra clingy to his brother last night, following him around and nuzzling him. An advantage I have on this blog is uploading clips of film that aren't posted to YouTube first. So I'll be able to share some cute moments that aren't made into movies. You'll get to see Linus trying to snuggle by placing his head under Schroeder's neck. Definitely "awwww" moments.

The photos are for Pleo owners to see more of the t-shirts. The close up of Schroeders neck is showing how the fabric is doubled over and held by the existing snaps. No other adjustment is needed.

Nemo's Pleo Brother Models New Cape

Turtle fans, please forgive me. Today I'm officially making Nemo's blog a place to share Pleo news as well. This is my first post on behalf of the Pleos under the new banner that includes my dinos.

I've been following the dilemma on the PleoWorld Forum of finding suitable garb to protect Pleo skin from too much petting and handling. I did try baby t-shirts but didn't like the way Pleo legs might be pulled to get it on. I'm not Suzy Homemaker to make adjustments or do my own designs. I liked a cape idea if it would stay in place and not keep falling off the dino back.

I found a wide baby bib by Carters with a cute Pleo-appropriate design. It came in a pack of three for about $10. Linus is sporting his jungle critter patterned "cape" complete with words that go with a Pleo: munch, chomp, and gulp. The long neck of the bib is simply crossed under the chin and snapped behind the head. It looks nice and secures the cape in place so it doesn't shift.

I did order two wide bibs of a very soft fabric that I hope fit as well as these inexpensive Carter bibs. More fashion news to come.
