Stuff My Baby Likes (And Mom too!) 4 Month Edition

Baby Legs
Have you guys seen these? I LOVE them. Which is not what I can say for my husband as he thinks that leg warmers are strictly a girl thing. But what is amazing about them is they are fabulous for being at home. Meaning, I can put long socks on him and a onesie and viola! Diaper changing is a snap. Plus, I think they are pretty yummy. I am hoping they will be pretty handy come time to crawl. If I wanna protect those little knees I will just put some "socks" on them!


Scout
Scout is the Leapfrog dog that you can personalize to say baby's name, as well as pick out baby's favorite songs, colors, bedtime lullabys. Camden loves his Scout and Mom and Dad thorougly enjoying singing along with Scout during diaper changes and such.


V-Tech Car/Ball
V-Tech has some pretty cool toys as well. Camden loves to sit in Daddy's lap and drive his car. It's pretty cute to watch and he's actually pretty good and steering the wheel. Husband is more than ready for him to be go kart ready, but I am not in any hurry to rush anything. :) The ball is neat because it will encourage crawling when we get to that stage. I think it's pretty cool how it moves around on its own.




Nosefrida
I read a review of this on another Mom blog and let me just say, AWESOME. I absolutely LOVE mine. It is much easier on Little C's nose, and he definitely doesn't seem to mind it. There is not much crying involved with the Nosefrida whereas with the bulb aspirator he would cry and cry. I felt horrible when he had that nasty cold and we had to stick that nose sucker WAY up there. With this one you just stick it at the end of the nostril and suck in with your lungs really hard. I feel like my lungs can suck better and faster than the bulb aspirator can, which is why I find this amazing. It has a filter in it and supposedly that keeps the adult from getting sick, but who really knows. I'm not too worried about getting sick, especially at this point. Since I am breastfeeding any germs I get I will make antibodies for them, which is what he will need anyway.


And these are our current favorites. I'm sure there will be many more to come!

Product Review

Items that I LOVE during month one:

Itzbeen Timer - In fact, I used the timer on this to time my contractions before going to the hospital! It is a very handy little timer that helps you to keep track of diaper changes, feeding, sleep and nursing habits. Definitely a must for a sleep deprived Momma!

Bravado Nursing Tanks/Bras - SO COMFY! I love them. They were expensive, but very well worth it. They make a nursing/pumping Mom feel slightly more human. There is only one place in Tulsa that sells them, thank goodness they do! These tanks and bras were much better than any other brand I found.

AngelCare Monitor - I already mentioned this in my last post, but I can't even begin to describe how awesome it is. I would definitely recommend this over a baby video monitor, I mean a video is only good if you are going to stay awake and watch it, right? This monitor has a pendulum that swings on the display to let you know there is movement. The nice thing about this one is that if you choose you can put the movement sensor on a continual tick, so it makes a gentle noise while sleeping that you can hear to know that your baby is still breathing, if baby stops breathing after 15 seconds an alarm goes off. It also has temperature controls that tells if it is too hot or too cold in the room, as well as your usual audio monitor. I have been very impressed by this product!

Sleep Sheep - This little one needs noise to sleep. I love the little Sleep Sheep that has 4 different options for sounds and can be set to run for 43 minutes. Works like a charm!

The Giraffe Rug - I love this little rug. It is perfect for nap times, for sitting him on the floor to play on, photo shoots and so forth. We have gotten SO much use out of it! It is super soft as well, which is part of the reason why Pearl thinks that this is hers. She tries to lay on it all the time and doesn't get why she is always forced off of it. She still hasn't quite figured that out, in fact the other day Camden was napping on it and was covered and she grabbed a toy and ran all over him. Luckily he was sleeping hard enough that it didn't wake him.

Lastly, I will leave you with pictures of the rug, with my little froggy sleeping on it!
