 | Peek-A Who? by Nina Laden
Buy new: $6.95 / Used from: $2.11 this book was a great first book and she continues to reach for it at 12 mo. also a good mirror at the end which babies love "peeka..." "you!"

 | Under The Nile Long Sleeve Side Snap One-Piece Bodysuit
these are great because they snap easily on the side- you have to go through many newborn changes and you want something easy that doesn't go over baby's head. also very soft organic cotton and cute for newborn.
|
 | Under the Nile Organic Cotton Footed Pant - Blue
Buy new: $15.00 goes with the onesies, easy on and off and keeps feet warm without socks. socks fall off, you don't want them for newborn!
|
 | Merino Kids Baby Sleep Bag, 0-2 years, Winter-weight, Wild Poppy
Buy new: $119.00 these are awesome, and an investment. these are worth every penny because they are very sturdy and well made. i have one winter weight and one summer weight, and she has plenty of room at 12 mo. great for setting that "time for sleep" tone as well.
|
 | Under The Nile Ear Flap Hat, Pink/Stripe, 12-24 Months
these are great bc they're warm cotton fleece, not polyester. also has a chin strap, i bought one last year as well as this year. cute and simple as well.
|
 | Medela Breastmilk Feeding and Storage Set
Buy new: $16.99 these bottles are great if you're nursing. well you don't have much choice if you're using a pump, point is... you don't need another bottle. just store with the cap they provide and use evenflo nipples of the right stage. you will also need the storage bags for the freezer.
|
 | Easy Expression Bustier Hands-free Pumping Bra
Buy new: $21.50 - $33.00 haha. this is absolutely necessary for a double pump. it allows you to actually pump quickly and hands free. you dont need to buy the medela gear/bra that makes it hands free - that looks like a nightmare.
|
 | Graco SnugRider Infant Car Seat Stroller Frame
Buy new: $56.00 these are great because you can just lift baby in carseat and then into stroller without waking him/her up. of course that only lasts until they are about 4-5 months old. then forget it.
|
 | Graco SnugRide Infant Car Seat, Tango in the Tongo
Buy new: $86.98 i actually bought the safe seat, which is similar but bigger. i should have had this one because at a certain point a detachable car seat is no longer useful, the baby is too heavy to carry in it and they wake up anyway. they make convertible car seats for when babies outgrow these small car seats that allow them to face rearward for up to 2 years.
|
 | Tiny Love Gymini Super Deluxe - Lights&Music
Buy new: $46.94 at about 6-8 weeks we got this for my daughter and almost immediately she started reaching for things, wiggling around. it was great. she could lie there for hours. they are not that interactive with you at that point and want to be stimulated. so i think this is a great product. oh the music wore out quickly but you can replace the battery or use your own music, their music is tinny.
|
 | Infant Stim-Mobile
Buy new: $19.99 this is the best mobile! she loved this from the beginning (about 7-8 weeks old) and smiled up at it. especially if we move it a little (it's off balance so that it will rock). i think they're great bc they're simple shapes and it's designed for young infants. by the time they are older they dont care about mobiles and it's supposed to be a hazard, so better to get one for the infant stage.
|
 | Gerber 5-Pack Onesies Brand One Piece Underwear - White, 18 Months
Buy new: $9.99 these are great in long sleeve. at one point, maybe when she was learnign to eat, it seemed like she would just mess her top a few times a day. diaper was runny too. these provide coverage for crawlers and young babies that you won't get with a shirt.
|
 | RaZ-Berry Silicone Teether
Buy new: $4.49 this is really the only teether that she's used. it's cheap but made of non-toxic silicone. really good especially for these back teeth coming in.
|
 | Burt's Bees - Baby Bee Shampoo & Wash, 8 oz liquid
Buy new: $5.14 this is a great wash/shampoo. we use it on her hands and face after every meal and there's never any residue. it also does not appear to bother her eyes and the scent is gentle and fades. no parabens or anything non-natural.
|
 | Burt's Bees Diaper Ointment - 3 oz.
Buy new: $4.90 love this. has a lavender scent which seemed a bit much to me- and who doesn't remember the scent of desitin? but desitin has a lot of toxic stuff in it that i don't want to take a chance on. i switched to this just recently. it works and has no harmful chemicals.
