Favorite Things

These are a few of my current must-have products for Leighton. Well some aren't necessity .... I just like them! 

1. The Swaddle: due to Leighton's crazy arm reflexes and constant kicking she would have never been able to sleep without it.... nor would her parents

swaddled like a little burrito 

2. Medela breast pump: because majority of my days are consumed with milk and all that nursing encompasses (wondering how much she ate, pumping after she eats, ensuring bottles for when I go to work, pumping at work, establishing a freezer supply, cleaning parts and bottles.....) but I wouldn't have it any other way!

3. Online Photobooks: for those who want polished photo albums to document your child's life without the hassle of scrapbooking. I use Snapfish but there are alot of great ones!

4. Pacifier Wipes: I am trying not to be a germaphobe but working at a Children's Hospital does not help the cause. I have gotten a lot of use out of these.

5. Infamous Boppy: I never use it to nurse but rather as a place to sit Leighton ... we talk to her in it, sing, read, play with toys, keep her safe while I run to restroom, let her nap, feed bottles, etc.
