Organic cotton baby romper - Nautical - Anchor - I'm the result of a shore thing -  long sleeve

The anchor is prevalent here in Newport, Rhode Island. The Seal of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations features an anchor as its central image below the phrase "Hope."

Babies are expressions of hope and love. I decided to have a little fun with this symbol.

• Made in the USA so production can be monitored. We like when stuff happens closer to the nest. The apparel is cut, sewn, packed and shipped by employees making a living wage in safe and comfortable working conditions.

• 100% Combed Ring-Spun Organic Cotton for a velvety soft, more durable item—not itchy and scratchy.

• Original design (most are Simply Chickie Trademarked); so, your gift impresses, and you will be loved and appreciated for your unique find.

• The National Parenting Center Approved for peace of mind.

• Featured in top popular national and international magazines (Parent's, Baby and Maternity, Celebrity Parent's, Green Child, and About.com; we could go on, but we’ll stop there); and, with brand influencers, so you can trend too!

• Lead, phthalate and flame retardant free because, ugh, who wants that stuff against a little one’s body.

• Easy machine-wash cold, tumble dry low care because Baby Noah will wear it over and over again. And, then his Baby sister, Olivia, will wear it over and over again—and the next generation will wear it over and over—yeah, you get it!

• Gender-neutral designs, so you don’t have to worry about pink or blue!

• Double-needle hem in order to provide a stronger seam to keep the fabric from fraying—so annoying, right?!

• 3 snap closure for easy diaper changing.

• 100% GOTS certified. GOTS is a textile production certification that limits the use of toxic bleaches, dyes, and other chemical inputs + pesticides during the production process of textiles so that the final product is safe for skin.

• GOTS certification also means adhering to strict social criteria including employment is freely chosen, working conditions are safe and hygienic, child labor is not used, a living wage is paid, and working hours are not excessive.

“But, what size do I get?” Choose the perfect size based on our helpful “size translation” under each metric. Don’t worry we got you!

The average size baby is born 7.5 lbs and grows approximately 1.5 to 2 lbs each month, and 1 to 1 ½ inches in height each month.

3-6 months = Chest: 12-14 inches Height: 20-24 inches Weight: 12-17 lbs

Size translation: Buy this size when you want Mom and Dad to dress the babe up in your purchase for Instagram stories; and, for those fun early refrigerator magnet pictures with Granny and Grandpa!

6-12 months = Chest: 14-16 inches Height: 25-28 inches Weight: 17-21 lbs

Size translation: Buy this size when you cannot make the baby shower. Mom and Dad will appreciate it!

12-18 months = Chest: 16-18 inches Height: 29-31 inches Weight: 22-24 lb

Size translation: Buy this size when you cannot remember when the baby was born—but you think--in the last year and a half! Or, pop into the 2T toddler t-shirt section.
