Ava's Favorite Baby Items

List of Ava's favorite baby items:

1. Newborn Pacifier that you get at the hospital. It was the only one Ava would take for the first 2 months.

2. Fischer Price Little Lamb Swing.......she sleeps in it every night and laughs as she watches the lambs dance.

3. Dr. Brown Bottles.......they have been good at preventing gas.

4. Petunia Pickle Bottom diaper bag........the fold out changing pad is really nice. I found mine at Marshalls.

5. Ava's tutu........so cute for her pictures

6. Miracle Blanket.........it is the only swaddle blanket she can't get out of.

7. Lots of size newborn and 0-3 month onsies and night gowns. She lives in the onsies during day and gowns at night.

8. Fischer Price tub with seat and sling. Ava always enjoys bath time.

9. ItzBeen timer........perfect for the middle of the night feedings. It tracks feedings, diapers, sleeping. Very nice when you are sleep deprived.

10. Graco stroller frame......you can just snap in your Graco car seat, so it is convenient for running into the store or a restaurant. Also, you don't have to wake the baby.

11. Bob Stroller.......makes evening walks or runs very nice. We added a car seat attachment, so we can use it for the first year and keep her neck secure.

Not our favorites

1. Boppy Pillow.....didn't stay up high enough for nursing. The mom's breast friend worked better for me. Although Ava sits up in it now and it is kind of nice to have

2. Diaper Genie........we use this occasionally for wet diapers, but most of the time end up just using kitchen trash as it gets taken out daily.....daily carry out is very necessary for the dirty diapers.

3. Fancy Newborn size dresses that she never wore.......because newborns don't go out much. I so wished that they were 3 months or more, because now she is big enough to go out more and it is so fun to dress her up!

4. Sling......Ava slept in it for church twice when she was a newborn, but she screams when I try to put her in it now.

5. Size Newborn Shoes.....they are oh so cute, but not very practical and Ava's feet were to skinny for them to stay on. Now that she is ready to wear them, they are too small. I think a few sizes bigger would work better......but thanks to friends, grandmas and aunts, we have the bigger sizes too!
