Oct23 My Top 5 2012

Our post today comes from the lovely Brittany of Sweet Bee Photography
Untitled 111 My Top 5
1. Noodle and Boo Super Soft Baby Lotion
I associate the smell of this lotion with the first days of Adalynn’s life. I absolutely love it and make sure I take it to every baby shower I go to.

2. Hannah Anderson Organic Cotton Pajamas
I am a pajama addict. After her nightly bath, I love pulling out a pair of cute pajamas for her to put on. Hannah Andersons are my go-to favorites. They are super soft and cuddly and just scream classic baby. I might just buy myself a pair;)

3. Baby Trend Snap-n-Go
I live outside of Washington DC and never realized how much I was in and out of the car until I had a baby. Big bulky strollers just didn’t cut it those first months recovering from delivery. This little frame is a work-horse and is perfect for when the baby falls asleep in the car and you still need to slip into that last store.

4. A Pea in the Pod Nursing Nightgown and Robe
New babies are really the ones showered with gifts, so it is nice to actually get something exclusively for mom. After a long labor and an un-planned c-section, I felt so wonderful to slip on something soft and feminine. The robe is the perfect addition for when family members come to visit and overall it makes you feel a little more together for those first hospital photos.

5. Fisher Price Rock-n-Play
Someone suggested I put a Fisher Price Rock-n-Play sleeping on my registry. I’ll admit… I was more drawn to the classic cradle or Moses basket. I am a photographer after all and the later options seemed to go with the overall decor best. In real life though, this was a lifesaver. My daughter ended up with reflux and it was the only thing she was happy in. On top of that it folds easily, travels well and has a permanent place in our household.

***Have you Registered Yet? If not, Grey is a BIG fan of the online baby registry, Baby List.! You can choose items from Etsy for your unique handmade items (we all have our favorites), and of course all you’re favorite ‘one stop shop’ chains. It’s the best!!!!!

    The Rock n play sleeper is the BEST. I bought it with my first, and it was amazing. I have since recommended it to a few of my mommy friends and haven’t found anyone that didn’t think it was an essential.
