 | Britax Ashley Floral Marathon CV Car Seat
You can absolutely skip the infant seat and start out with a convertible. That's what we did! What's nice about Britax is the ease of use which plays an important roll in crash prevention since you will be using it everyday. The features are long term which means your child can rear face longer and stay in a 5pt harness before moving to the booster seat too soon.

 | Britax Boulevard Convertible Car Seat Park Avenue
Expensive, but great for Grandma and Nannies. The head and harness are completely adjustable without uninstalling. Comes with side impact protection and wonderfully designed infant pillow like the rolled up receiving blankets us Techs use to correctly place baby in her infant car seat.

 | C1 Stroller - Explorer
The best strollers hands down are the P3, Zippy and new C1. Steer clear of the popular Travel System. You've got that same infant car seat compatibility with these 3 wonderful strollers. Check out Strollerqueen.com for reviews, obstacle courses, and the new 2007 strollers.

 | Peg Perego P3 Ultimate All-Around Stroller- Rose
What do I like about the P3? The ingenious floating harness. Does not "pin" your frustrated toddler against the seat back. They are able to wiggle, lean forward and back but are still safely restrained. Seat is completely upright so baby will definitely enjoy it! Try it out in the store and wheel him around. You'll see what I mean!

 | Inglesina Zippy Stroller- Silver/ Black
This is the one we have. I thought the P3 was just a little too rickety for my taste and we didn't kick the back of the Zippy wheels so great choice for us. What I LOVE about the Zippy is the roomy seat. My child fills the P3 seat up but in the Zippy I can see most of the seat still! Also the steering is a bit better than the P3. Fine over grass and snow.

 | Evenflo X Sport Plus Convenience Stroller - Christina

 | Phil & Teds E3 Single Buggy - Red
Great outdoor stroller too! Can also be used indoors. Additional seat can attach to the back and front of the stroller making it the perfect choice for 2 kids or one on the way.

 | Skip Hop Dash-Denim
Buy new: $34.99 Great bag to start with. Medium size, nothing gets lost in it because of the wide shape vs height. Stroller straps. Denim is soft but durable. My personal Favorite!

 | Fleurville Sling Tote Diaper Bag - Blue Chocolate
Buy new: $119.00 Here's the original size, packs about the same amount as the Dash.
|
 | Bumble Bags Madeline Hanging Stroller Backpack Blue Latte
Buy new: $116.00 Want a cute backpack with stroller straps but don't like the popular PPB's?
|
 | 2 Red Hens Whole Roost Bag with Changing Pad, Egg Drop Soup
Buy new: $91.03 Everyone needs a large diaper bag. What your going to need is something stuffable and very light weight. Look no further! Vera Bradley also has a Baby Bag and Carry All in wonderful fabrics to choose from. This is a favorite of the BBB.

 | Hotslings Designer Pouch Style Baby Carrier, Zoie, Size 5
Buy new: $45.87 There is a whole world out there of carriers besides the Baby Bjorn! Check out Babywearing.com for comprehensive information. This item is also very personal. What works for one Mom isn't going to work for another.

 | Stokke Natural Tripp Trapp Chair
Buy new: $249.00 The beloved Kinder Zeat is now infant friendly! I've been waiting for this for quite awhile as many others have. Some have even had to buy over seas and pay expensive shipping before it passed product testing in the US. Wonderful seat, worth the money, built to last, completely adjustable birth to adult. Great for those who actually eat at the table.

 | Original Co-Sleeper
So you think you want to co-sleep but worried about SIDS? This is exactly why I bought mine. It is not ideal for traveling. It's quite heavy so keep that in mind. The Graco Pack n Play (regular model) would be ideal for that situation.
|
 | PRIMO EuroBath Pearl White
Buy new: $17.20 Best bath. Don't fall for all those 'gimmicks' with showers and features etc. They don't work, break and are short lived. Here is the classic baby bath. With simple design and useful features. Think it's too big? We just keep it in the bath tub to store and remove it when we need to take a shower. It's really no big deal.
|
 | Leachco Safer Bather - Infant Bath Pad - Blue Fish
Buy new: $19.99 Ok, so you still want something smaller for whatever reason and traveling. Look no further! This is a simple baby cushion you can use just about anywhere. Tub, sink etc. Great to use in the early weeks for sponge bathing and can be used in the EuroBath. We have both!
