Now, a few people have been asking me about what we need so I figured this was the best way to get the info out to anyone who wants it. There are a few things we need and of course some wants as well. I did try to get a mix of price ranges too. A lot of the things I registered for said they were limited available so I am not picky on the color or design really, as long as its boyish.
DISCLAIMER: I am not sharing this on FB to get people to read it and want to buy us something. This is purely info. for those who want it. I know when I want to get someone some thing who already has kids, its hard to know what they really want or need so if you dont want to know, stop reading here =)
So far this is all based on the Target registry. If I find better things at babies r us ill update this list.
The things we need are:
Rock n Play Sleeper-as of now we have nothing like this and with Cooper I kept saying it would be
nice to have something like this so this tops the list!
Avent 9 oz. bottles-these come with slow flow nipples which work great at first but we also need med.
and fast flow nipples (all on the registry) They have all different size packs too. Im not sure how
many we would need total but any number would be a great help! They have blue ones which I
thought were cute but the clear are just fine too!
Travel bottle warmer-there were 2, one to plug into the car and one reusable that requires no
electronics. I think I'd rather have the car one but both seem very useful to us!
Pacifiers- i put several on the registry so here's the scoop- I use the MAM brand. THey have different
sizes so we need some of each size, I think the sizes say 0/1M, 3M and 6M. I will like any design as
long as its boy but the brand is important and a variety of sizes would be nice too!We need more of
the 3M and 6M than the 0/1M. You can find these at alot of stores too.
Bibs-any kind from anywhere are fine but I know we need some.
About the other items:
Blanket-I want the Circo Valboa Big Dottie Blanket-its navy blue with big white dots. It matches the
boys and I LOVE them. It's not a need but if we dont get one as a gift, we will def. go buy it, =)
Infantino Baby carrier-we got one for cooper but it was cheaper and I'm not sure if we still have it so it
would be nice. We dont need a really expensive one like the baby bjorn so i just picked this one
because it looked pretty good. Im not picky on the brand or colors but I want on the goes over the
shoulders like this to hold the baby in front of you and can hold around 30lbs.
Swing-ours was on it's last leg with Cooper so we need one but I'd rather have the rock n play sleeper
over this. the swing is battery operated so it swings by itself but i dont think its good for the baby to
sleep in overnight and the sleeper doesnt rock on its own (BOO!) but is for sleeping.of course, it
would be nice to have both though =)
Playmat-we have had a few over the years and i need to get in the attic to see if we still have all the
pieces to coopers but the little dangly toys get separated over time so im not sure we have them all,
this would just be to have a new fresh one. The brand is just the cheapest one they had. I am not
picky on the brand or where its from or exactly what it looks like.
Milk storage bags- i felt like this was weird to register for but you may have no idea how many of these
we go through and they arent super cheap so if you are looking for an inexpensive and practical
gift...this is it!
Butt Paste- this is another practical, small and inexpensive gift. There is NOTHING BETTER than this
stuff so dont waste your time on other brands for us =)
There are a few other little things that I added that would be nice but there ya go...I'm sure there are some things I have completely forgotten about and wont think about until Anderson is here but I think these are the main things. The only thing I havent registered for is a car seat because they were just too darn expensive! Plus, we have a Graco base and Im not sure all Graco car seats even fit into it so i gotta do some research. Im gonna check the date on ours this weekend (hopefully) so cross your fingers we can still use it! If this was way more info and detail than you wanted then, sorry but I thought some people might find it helpful since its hard to know what someone really needs or wants.
