Sassy: Fun Shaped Soft Grip Scissors & ClippersSassy: Fun Shaped Soft Grip Scissors & Clippers
Buy new: $9.97
I highly recommend these soft grip scissors for trimming baby's nails. I started using clippers (although not this brand) and accidentally pinched the tip of my little one's finger. I didn't draw blood, but his howl broke my heart and I have not used clippers since.

Graco Classic Wood Highchair w/Seat Pad in Butter PecanGraco Classic Wood Highchair w/Seat Pad in Butter Pecan

We have this high chair in the cherry finish. I like the fact that it is wood and therefore looks more like a piece of furniture than the plastic highchairs do.
Quinny Zapp MandarinQuinny Zapp Mandarin
This is a nice, light stroller that folds up easily. It worked very well when I was having to lug around a car seat in the weeks after my C-section when you're not supposed to lift a lot. It also comes with a travel bag that would make it ideal for traveling on an airplane.
