I could definitely lived without all the little fitted cap/hats......I like the ones with bills, they're so cute, but the fitted kind always made Collin look like a potato I just used an outfit with a hood if he needed a hat!

I could not have lived without..........hmmm, I'm not sure, babies don't actually NEED hardly anything, definitely an important lesson! I guess other than the common sense things, like the car seat, I'm definitely getting my moneys worth out of the sleepy wrap.

What we could've lived without:

his crib LOL I know that it'll be used later because I purchased a 4-in-1 so I'm not too worried.

Hats. Linden hated having anything over his head, so I just used warm hoodies when it was cold.

Bunting suits - hated being confined, just a sleeper was good for him.


What we couldn't live without:
Newborn days - his swing, it put him to sleep instantly when he was being fussy - now he wants nothing to do with it

Now - his exersaucer..he LOOOVES that thing!

I never used the little mittens

I only used our baby papasan for when I was in the shower

We didn't end up using our changing pad this time, we sent it to my sister and BIL when she was a few months old, to use for thier baby

We could have done without the crib so far, but it's nice to have her own room to put her in for naps

I loved sleepsacks for Abby, but so far, they haven't gotten any use. It's pointless to put one on her when she'll end up in the bed with us at some point and it's just one more thing to mess with.

Things I couldn't live without:
The co-sleeper was an awesome investment, I love having her right next to the bed.

My mei tai and wrap

I could have lived without the activity gym/playmat. He HATES to be on his back! He never used pacifiers or 4 oz baby bottles.
I could never live without the pack-n-play! He slept in it, as a bassinet, and now he plays in it!

Could live w/o her pack n play actually. She has only used it once so far, maybe she will start using it more soon. Also pacifiers, she never took one.

Couldn't live w/o her stroller, wrap, play mat and jumperoo!

could have lived without all the newborn dresses we bought when we found out she was a girl. what was I thinking? I knew she was going to live in onsies and sleepers and so she has

absolutely cannot live without the bumbo. would have starved to death already if I wasn't able to sit her in it on the kitchen table while I eat

Could have lived without the newborn mittens. They always fell off her tiny hands. We had way too many newborn outfits for her, she grew out of them so quickly. She never really liked wearing the hats either.

Couldn't live without the exersaucer or the bumbo, she lives in those things. Oh and the playmat is a favorite of her's also. We use the stroller alot to go on walks too. She loves those pacifiers as well.
