Top 10 Baby things for us

I've seen a few of my bloggy friends put up their baby 'must haves' and I've found them so helpful. Its always nice to see what other Mom's use all the time and things they could do without. Here are our top ten must haves from zero to three months:

10. Onesies-I realize the dresses and outfits are super cute and I love them, but around our house on a day to day basis, onesies are the way to go. They don't ride up her back and are comfy.

9. Footed jammies-They're just so dang cute. I think they're great at night to keep her warm and cozy. I prefer those over the ones that are just pants without the feet because her toes seem to always be cold.

8. The diaper station on the pack n play. It is so nice to have a dedicated place for diaper changes downstairs that isn't on the furniture, floor or table and is higher up so I don't have to bend over so far.

7. Cloth Diapers-We don't use them for diapers (we use Kirkland diapers...why does everything here say kirkland :-)?, but we use them for drool, bubbles, spit up, etc. They were a great gift.

6. Baby Bjorn and Bob stroller-It is so easy to snap her into the baby bjorn and go for a walk. I also have a moby wrap I really like, but it is WAY too hot for the summer. The Bob is the greatest stroller ever and perfect for the beach!

5. The bouncy seat- I love the one we have. It has bubbles and fish and that is what she loves. I'm so glad we have one that has the bubble area instead of just the seat. It keeps her entertained for quite a while. She has slept in it a few times.

4. The play mat-As I've said before Mr. Octopus is the greatest thing EVER, so this mat had to make the list. When we were looking for a playmat, I wanted the pink princess one, but Joel talked me into the aquarium themed one in case we could use it for future children should they not be girls. Plus, living at the beach, the fish, octopus, turtles, etc. just make sense.

3. Paci's-So far the only ones she's used are the Nuk brand because they were the smallest ones. We have some larger ones for later on, but so far these are the ones we're using. She loves a paci and we are so thankful that she loves it.

2. Tri-Vi-Sol-We LOVE Vitamins. They are almost like a sedative for her, just a small drop on her paci and her eyes almost always close. We're very careful about the amount we're giving her, since we know you can overdose on some of the vitamins. I think she's going to have a sweet tooth...wonder who she gets that from?

1. The Miracle blanket-there as never been a better name for a product than the miracle blanket. This is will be my go-to gift for baby showers from now on. Such an angel.
