As we approach Hogan's 2 month "birthday" I was thinking about all the things that have made our lives easier, or we just plain love that we have used over the last two months.
1) Bugs & Hugs Baby Gym- Hogan LOVES this thing! The big caterpillar plays music and he just jams out to it. Some days, putting him on this is the only way that I can get anything else done.
2) Blankets & Beyond Blue Swirl Swaddler- MIRACLE!! I swear this swaddler is the main reason that Hogan sleeps through the night. He gets all snuggly and warm and passes right out. It is super soft and it's SO pretty!
3) Cozy Cover Car Seat Cover- Hooray for keeping babe warm! The only thing that I don't like about this, is that with our car seat the little face flap touches Hogan's face....and he HATES having things over his face...so we have to use an additional cover from Carseat Cover (which is amazing as well) to keep the cold off of his face...which is fine...because it keeps people from touching him at the supermarket too.....most of the time.
4) Meadow Menagerie Graco Pack-N-Play- Besides being SUPER CUTE, we use this as Hogan's bed for now in our room. We didn't use the bassinet attachment because I didn't like the thought of him not sleeping on a solid surface. (the attachment is kind of like a hammock) And the "changing table" attachment isn't all that practical since it tilts to the side when you put the kid in it....so...we didn't use that either. But the inset that elevates the "sleeping surface" is awesome so we don't have to put him practically on the floor.
5) Prince Lionheart Wipe Warmer- A small price to pay for a baby that doesn't scream now whenever we wipe his tushie at home....but...I wouldn't want cold wet wipes on my derriere either.
6) Bright Starts InGenuity Swing~Bella Vista- Hogan will usually take his naps in this. He is only a cat napper, but he usually will last longer in the swing than he does in his bed...little sleep fighter!

7) The First Years Infant to Toddler Baby Bathtub- He loves to take baths and splash around in this. It has a nice support for his little tush and his for his head. It comes with a mesh sling for newborns, but we didn't use that...
8) Gerber Long Sleeve Onesies- It's chilly, they cover his little hands, and he wears them under everything.
9) Johnson & Johnson Bedtime Bath- This smells so nice....and he seems to like it...so, YAY!
10) Sony Baby Call Baby Monitors- They were inexpensive and they work really well...TA DA!
11) The First Years BreastFlow Double Breast Pump- I love this thing...it works well, and it's super easy to clean...two of my favorite things!
12) Dr Seuss Books- Not sure why, but he seems to really like Dr. Seuss...which is okay by me...I love Dr. Seuss too :-)
Well there you have it...of course there are more things that he likes...but I thought I'd keep it simple for now. I hope everyone is having a great weekend! Stay warm!
In Strength, Love & Faith, Thanks for Reading, Charity
