 | Pacify Me: A Handbook for the Freaked-Out New Dad by Chris Mancini
Buy new: $10.19 / Used from: $5.82 I should have bought this when we found out about the baby. In addition to being entertaining, the observations are dead on.
Get this first... It will give you a good laugh even before the action starts.

 | Canon PowerShot SD1100IS 8MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Blue)
Buy new: $349.99 / Used from: $149.00 I bought this a month before the birth. It's small sized automatic features, and picture quality make it an excellent addition to the delivery room and surrounding events.
Have it on hand for the Big Day.

 | Itzbeen Baby Care Timer - Blue
Buy new: $24.95 These aren't the most durable things and the first one we got was damaged in shipment. However, once we got one that worked, and with reasonable care, it proved to be invaluable.
This should be on hand when the baby arrives home to help with the sleepless nights and and confusing times.

 | Columbia Trekster Diaper Bag - Orange and Grey
Buy new: $129.99 This is our fourth (fifth?) diaper bag. My wife is the primary user and she tells me it is far and away better than the others. It holds more, the pockets make more sense, and it's easiest to carry.

 | Ergo Baby Carrier Black with Camel Lining
Buy new: $105.00 This is, far and away, the most comfortable carrier (and we've tried them all). It's not just us either. We're always running into people using the same one and it's always the same conversation, "we tried lots and wish we had this one first."

 | 24" Playmats (set of 4)
Buy new: $22.49 These fit perfectly under the Playzone. You'll want this on hand so you have a place to put the Playzone.

 | Little Playzone with Sounds and Lights
Buy new: $99.99 Once our daughter started to move around it was a challenge to let her play and us live. This worked out perfectly. It gives her space to so stuff and limits her to a safe spot.
