Must Haves!

I know that we were totally overwhelmed with baby "stuff" when we started registering and shopping.  So, I thought I would compile a list of my personal favorites and things I could not live without!

1.  The Boppy pillow-  This bad boy has multiple uses and we have used it from day 1 and still use it now.  If you are nursing, it is a great support pillow.  Also, we have used it to prop her up and now I can sit her up in it and she can play.  And I guess you could use it for a neck pillow on a plane, too!  :)

2.  The Baby Einstein Playmat-  Kenleigh loves this!  It is great entertainment for her and it allows me to do other things for a short period of time.  She has just recently started rolling off of it, so I'm not sure we will use it too much longer.

3.  The BOB Revolution stroller- I debated whether this stroller was actually worth the money...It is worth every penny!  It is awesome!  I compared lots of joggers and this puppy was the best in all categories.  Thanks to my sweet Mama, we were able to get it!

4.  Pampers Swaddlers and Pampers Sensitive wipes-  I'm sure every diaper is good in their own way, but we tried several kinds and these are my favorite!  They are a soft material and have the fancy yellow line to know if they are wet.

5.  Medela Swing Pump-  I only pump about once a day.  It suits my needs and also has batteries so you can use it on the go.

6.  Summer Infant video Monitor-  This thing is awesome!  It has video and sound.  We have the one you can carry around.  It is perfect, because our TV room is on the opposite side of the house from K's room.  We can see what she is doing all the time without having to go into her room at every sound.

I think those are the big things that we LOVE!  Some other things that have been great are boogie wipes, the little toys that hang from the carseat bar, zip up jammies, and swaddle sacks!

One thing I WOULD NOT buy again is:
Safety 1st Froggy bathtub- It leaks...it is a pain...I don't like it!
