Keep your socks on!!!


Baby B sat properly in his car seat. The car heater blasted Simone and the little guy as torrential rain blasted the city. They only had a five minute ride to get to where they were going but when Simone glanced back, Baby B had already managed to kick off one of his yellow rubber rainboots.


"We're almost there," Simone said. "You're going to need your boots for the puddles."


Baby B smiled and kicked off his other boot.


"Oh for crying out loud," muttered Simone. Now she'd have to stand in the rain to slide the boots back on the toddler's feet.


She turned into the parking lot and found a spot in record time. Unfortunately, Baby B was reaching for his sock and pulling with determination.


"Hey!" Simone yelped. "Keep your socks on! We're here already!"


...


So THAT's where the expression came from!
