CaliCarly77 · April 2014

I know I haven't been on in a while, but I thought I'd share my blog about my favorite things we had when we brought the girls home. I would even add our newest addition, which is the Baby Brezza Formula Pro - WOW!!! game changer for EFF!!

ETA link to the blog, D'OH!! https://thecrocketfamilyblog.blogspot.com/2014/04/a-few-of-our-favorite-things.html

Thanks for sharing. I keep forgetting all that is needed for newborns.

I agree with everything.Especially the zippered sleepers, why would anyone invent newborn pj's with snaps!

Yup this is an awesome list. And I agree the Brezza formula maker is amazing!!

CaliCarly77 - I have been totally MIA since my babies (Lydia & Nolan) were born on Dec.16th (vaginally and no NICU time) but logged on today out of curiosity. I was so excited to see your post. Glad to hear that your girls are doing well and completely agree with your favorite things. Wish I would have seen a similar post when we were pregnant. Take care!

Thank you - this is awesome and your photos of two beautiful, content babies is welcomed

I don't know where to begin and I'm already overwhelmed

thanks for simplifying!!

Yes! The only things I would add would be muslin blankets (Aden + Anais) and extra changing pad covers for when babies pee or poop during a change.! Oh! And the nose Frida!

Thoughts on an Arm's Reach co-sleeper? I have looked up past posts and I am still on the fence. Would a crib in the bedroom be just as good. I was not planning on using our pnp for this purpose since the higher setting has such a low weight limit (15 pounds).

Kalorama!!! Congratulations on Lydia and Nolan, and your V delivery! WOW!! That is great!

Its amazing what little information we had once the babies were here. I felt like I concentrated so much on being pregnant and staying pregnant that I didn't know anything about actually having a baby (or two lol)

I didn't have one - girls slept in the twin pack n play in the living room for a week (whoever was on duty would hang out in the living room while the other one of us would sleep quietly in our bedroom), then they went into their own room in their cribs, and moved into the rock n plays once spit up started but still in their bedroom.
