We used one until last Spring, but I want to get another now that the weather is getting cold (she always kicks off her blankets). Tess is around 23 lbs and wears size 18 mos. Anyone want to recommend their current favorite cold weather sleep sack?

Yep, we use the fleece Halo sleep sacks for both naps and night time. We used them over the summer too, but with just a onesie underneath. Now she wears a onesie, fleece pj's, and the sleep sack. It gets pretty drafty in her room.
We have an HM sleep sack. It used to be sleep sack, then when she started falling asleep on her own during the summer, we dropped it. Once it cooled down, we put a blanket on her, which she tolerated for about a week, then kicked off and woke up cold. So back to sleep sack it is. She loves it.
The last sleep sack we had was a Carter's 0-9 month, so we haven't used one in quite awhile. When he outgrew it and it was still cold, we would put a regular sleeper under a fleece sleeper. Ds's room seems so much colder than the rest of the house. It's above the garage, so maybe that's why? We also keep the house fairly cool overnight. I was looking at those Halo big kid sleep sacks as well. I'll see how he does now that the weather is really cold and if I can double up on pjs first.
We are sleep sack for lyfe. He does have a light blanket that I fold up for under his head almost like a flat pillow, but he usually pushes it around until it's comfy, he'd never keep a blanket on himself.
We were using the ligh halo for the summer, but I just bought one from Winners (our Marshalls) that's rated TOGS 2.5. It's super duper comfy and warm, he seems to like it.
I love sleep sacks, mostly because I hate the idea of trying to fall asleep without any type of blanket on me. I don't think I could do it, why subject Adrian to that cruelty
Used it for the first 8 months theb warmer weather came and I ditched it.. I wish I wouldn't have because now he hates it but it's cold and he is getting sick because he uncovers himself!

Has anyone tried the Halo Big Kids SleepSack? They go up to size 5T, but I think I'd be worried about her feet getting too cold unless I put like three pairs of socks on her.
We got one at a yard sale, but her feet kept slipping through the holes into the sack, and then they'd hit the bottom of the sack, and she'd get mad, so I think it's a no-go for us.
