Our Favorite Things: 2 month edition

So now that Caleb is a little older, a little wiser, he definitely has some favorite things. And Mommy has some favorite things too!

These are baby gear items that have worked well for us, and we couldn't live without them.

Fisher-Price Rain Forest Open-Top Cradle Swing

Caleb looooves this swing. The swinging helps him chill out and he loves to look at the toys above and listen to the music. When all else fails and Caleb is fussy, the swing will solve the problem 90% of the time. Oh, and I love that you could change the direction of the chair so that he could swing in different directions!

Boppy Pillow

This thing is awesome. Even Mike uses it when he feeds Caleb. It's perfect for setting Caleb up on the couch next to me to just hang out, and we also tried some tummy time on it when we first got it. I'm very happy with it, especially because I could still use it in different ways as Caleb gets older.

Eddie Bauer diaper bag

I love our diaper bag, it's awesome! Lots of pockets to fully organize everything and the straps are adjustable. Nice and big enough to fit everything. 

SwaddleMe

We used this as soon as he could fit into it without him drowning in it, lol. It's so easy to use and Caleb can't wiggle out of it because the velcro straps are so strong. This thing is awesome.

Aden & Anais SwaddlePlus Wraps

These are the best blankets ever. They're soft and lightweight. We also use these to swaddle and Caleb doesn't get sweaty. They're perfect to stick in the car as an extra blanket, or drape over the stroller to protect from sun (to provide shade). They're nice and huge for long and skinny babies like Caleb. Lol. They're just perfect. I love them so much. They're pretty awesome.

Graco Pack 'N Play with newborn napper & changing table attachment

Omg this thing is a lifesaver. Having a changing table right next to his bed is essential for me. The changing table holds babies up to 30 lbs, so it'll be around for a while! But then again, he's getting so long, his legs will be hanging off soon.. lol. The model that we have also has a napper feature for babies up to 15 lbs. After that, there's a bassinet feature underneath. Then after that, there's a play yard under that! It comes with a vibration feature, night light, music, & nature sounds as well. I seriously love this thing. He's still in the napper part of this thing, but he's getting long so we may have to put him in the bassinet part soon. This is where Caleb sleeps every night. 

MAM Pacifiers

We settled on this kind, because it was the brand that the hospital provided and Caleb seemed to like it. So if he likes them, I like them.

Those are some of our favorite things so far in Caleb's first 2 months of life. Hopefully I can remember to keep this up. Next edition at 4 months!

Love,
