Well, I'm sure that there are babies living in Utah that are doing just fine. In fact, many of us live in places colder than Utah and we're still allowed to have babies. :)
Make sure you have the right clothes for the little one. Dress him in layers, usually one more layer than you're wearing, plus a snowsuit. A thin cotton sleeper underneath his pants and shirt makes for great long underwear. Make sure the hat covers the ears completely, especially when it's windy. A hat with ear flaps is best. Don't take him outside for long periods of time. At this age, he should be inside most of the time, so don't expose him to the elements if unnecessary. Follow this, and he'll be fine!
Have a great holiday!

It will be fine, think of the babies living in Salt Lake City right now. They are all fine. I was born there, and lived there for the first 9 months of my life, and I survived. ( I live in an even colder place right now, Madison, WI ) Your 2 month old should be just fine, just have the heat on in your car during to ride up. Have fun!!!!

There are lots of babies in Utah... he'll be ok ;-)
I live just south of Salt Lake and honestly it's not all that cold. And all the snow is melted. Just bundle him up, he'll be fine. Viruses cause sickness, not cold weather.

Too chilly for what? in simple terms being outdoors? If in the sunlight it extremely is going to likely be warmer than in the coloration. long sleeves could be good. If it extremely is windy....possibly a easy jacket or sweater considering that a infant that age isn't energetic sufficient to artwork up a sweat. A hat would desire to be good too.

I think they probably have 2 year old babies in Utah. He will be fine.

We have babies in cold winter climates. When my daughter was little, I kept her in a wrap-style sling under my coat whenever we were outside in the winter. A wool cap on her head and my body heat was all she needed in the way of winter gear.

Should be fine as long as you bring the appropriate clothes to keep him warm. And it will be freezing! Don't forget hats with ear flaps and mittens. I would also layer some long johns underneath his pants.

If you dress your 2.5 month old appropriately (warmly), he will be fine. If it's very cold (below zero), you can wrap your baby in a warm blanket.

Just make sure to keep him very warm. But don't overdress him and he should be fine. Lots of stops on the way for changes and feedings. And you should be fine...Have a great time and happy holidays..
