Life
There are so many baby products out there these day that are wonderful! Some are a little unnecessary in my opinion,but some make raising a baby a lot easier. My Mother-in-Law and Mother were both impressed and slightly jealous at some of the amazing products out there that we have at our disposal. Grant and I also tried to stay on the side of less stuff rather than all of the extras. We didn’t want to spend a ton of money on our kids, and we didn’t want to have to store all of the stuff between kids. So here is a list of some of our favorite products, and why I have added them.
When I was pregnant with Reese, I wanted to make sure that I wasn’t too overwhelmed with information about parenting, birthing, breastfeeding, and pregnancy. I tried to keep everything as simple as possible. I pretty much asked for recommendations from siblings, friends, etc. to narrow down what I thought was worth my time. I also wanted books that weren’t too contradicting based on how Grant and I thought we wanted to parent. So here are my recommendations to anyone wanting a short list of what I thought was most helpful.
The second to last weekend in July, we took Reese on our first road trip to Nashville. This trip should be two hours each way. On the way to Nashville, Reese slept most of the trip, and was just starting to get fussy when we made it to Kira and Andrew’s House. We had no idea what to expect with Reese. We didn’t know if she would decide to not sleep even though we have had her in the pack n play in our room when we had lots of guests, but she did really well.
