Happy Thursday guys!
As much as I love posting fashion and style content, I also love posting about Sofi and everything that has to do with her! I can’t believe she just turned 7 months. Time is flying and in no time she will be one year, talking and walking!
Our little peanut, she our obsession! Everyday with her keeps getting better and better. She is so much fun and we just love seeing her grow.
And now that we’ve passed the first semester with her, I really wanted to share with you guys a list with our top 10 baby registry items we recommend the most!
Putting together a baby registry for the first time can be super confusing. I remember having no idea what to add, I was researching every single item I registered and it was taking me forever to put it together! Many friends gave us a lot of recommendations and with their help and our little experience, we think these items are awesome. Some of them a little bit more expensive than the others, but they are all worth every single penny. If you guys have any questions just let me know!
And remember I’m just a DM away on Instagram in case you need me for anything else!
1.UPPAbaby Cruz Aluminum Frame Stroller
This UPPAbaby stroller has been our best purchase. We love how easy, light and convenient it is. It’s super easy to break down and put together again. We only got the stroller and didn’t get the bassinet and I still think that was a good idea. I don’t find the bassinet necessary, because the sit does a 180-recline and the baby can lay on a flat surface. They sleep most of the time and they need to lay on flat surfaces for safety reasons so they can breath better. Sofi loved it and she was always able to sleep comfortably. If that doens’t work with your baby, you can purchase the bassinet separately! And I also love the fact that this stroller is compatible with MESA infant car seat and most Chicco®, Maxi-Cosi®, and Peg Perego® infant car seats.
2. Halo Bassinest Premiere Series Bedside Swivel Sleeper
This bassinet is amazing! We are still using it. We are currently sleep training Sofi and she is officially sleeping in her nursery but sometimes when she is not feeling her best, we let her sleep in our room in the bassinet. This bassinet swivels 360 degrees making it super easy and convenient to position the baby in a way that’s perfect for us. I especially love the fact that it has a breathable mesh walls so we can see Sofi all the time. It’s super easy to keep an eye on her without having to get out of bed. It includes a nightlight, sounds, music, vibration and a back-to-bed reminder. The music is still the feature we use the most.
3. Nest Cam Indoor Security Camera
When we were looking for a camera, we really wanted to find something that we were going to be able to use for many years and we adore our Nest camera. It’s video quality is amazing and at night you can see your baby perfectly. The app is very easy to use and if you work from a computer a lot, you can also keep an eye on your baby through their website. The app will send you notifications when it hears and sees something moving but it doens’t let you hear your baby all the time, so we had to get a baby audio monitor to hear her at night when we go to bed, but other than that, we love it. It’s powered by USB and it doesn’t need batteries, and that’s something we really appreciate!
4. VTech DM221-2 Digital Audio Baby Monitor
This baby audio monitor is awesome! It comes with two parent units which is super convenient because at night we can keep a unit on each night table and it has a talk-back intercom system so we can talk to Sofi to calm her down when she wakes up. It has rechargeable batteries and it has a night light on the baby unit to help see your baby without waking them up.
This backpack is so convenient and chic! It comes in three colors and we got the black one so Mauricio could use it too. It’s made from 100% polyurethane vegan leather, so no toxic foams or PVC often found in diaper bags and it has five internal super convenient pockets to keep everything organized. I love how comfortable it is and the PVC-free linings are wipeable and super easy to clean as well.
We always knew we were going to love this purchase. Now that we are officially using it every single day, we adore this crib. It’s made with ECO-friendly, non-toxic materials and it converts into a toddler bed and day bed. And, it has four adjustable mattress positions.
After using for the past seven months, I want to super recommend it. It’s rechargeable and simple to operate. It has a touch screen display and it connects to the MyMedela app to keep track of your pumping sessions, baby’s growth and all information you need to make your pumping journey a smooth one.
8. Fisher-Price Deluxe Kick & Play Removable Piano Gym
This piano gym is the cutest thing ever and Sofi is obsessed with it! It’s not only fun but so great for their discover (3+ months) and explore (6+ months) phases. We’ve used it so much during every single phase, when she used to lay down all the time, to tummy time and sitting up which is happening right now. It truly stimulates them and helps with the gross motor with all the kicks, pushing and reaching they do. It comes in two different colors! There are other versions of it, here you can take a look at other brands.
9. Evenflo ExerSaucer 2-in-1 Activity Center + Art Table
This Bouncing baby activity center, stand-and-play table and art/activity table is the best. It’s been such an amazing purchase and it entertains Sofi so much!The toys it comes with offers lights, music, textures and colors! It can be used for up to 4 yeas and it has 3 height adjustment positions. The toys are super easy to clean and it can be used as an art activity table when your baby is older. I also love the fact that is white and it blends in easily with our home decor.
10. Mamas & Papas Baby Snug and Tray
This little snug and tray seat is perfect for the first months. Our apartment is very small and we really wanted to find something that we could use everywhere without it taking it too mush space and this seat has been just what we needed for Sofi. It’s ergonomically designed specifically for babies and it offers the comfort and support they need during their different growth stages. It’s also super easy to clean and you can remove the tray which allows your baby to play or eat and the design ensures that your baby will stay snugly in the seat. It comes in multiple colors!
