Our Baby Registry

This post is in partnership with buybuy BABY. All opinions are 100% my own. 

 Hi Loves!

Ah, I cannot believe our little peanut will be here soon. I feel like time is flying by so fast. I remember finding out we were pregnant and feeling like wow we’ve got a long way to go. As my second trimester came to an end, I figured, it’s time to get the baby registry going and so we did. Lincoln and I spent a few evenings picking out items for our baby registry online at buybuy BABY. We were a little confused and unsure about a few things and decided to set up an appointment to go in and see for ourselves. Thankfully we did because we learned so much. Our consultant spent about 1.5 hours with us as we went through the aisle. She helped us decide on items that would fit our lifestyle, ones that came highly recommend and, customer faves. We are trying our to best to be intentional about what we really need, when we’ll need it, and how much we need and she really helped us narrowed everything down. We touched, felt, tried on, and saw most of the items we wanted in store. It was also so clean and organized that we felt confident after and told our consultant, we will stay another hour after our appointment was over. There were just so many amazing baby brands and selections for us to choose from, we really wanted to take our time and do it right. Our registry comprises of items that we know fit our lifestyle and our home. We want it to be suitable and perfect for #BabyOli. Once we were done scoping everything out, we met our consultant at the registry desk to finalize what we had on our list. We can continue to add items as we go along in store or online and I love that option. We’ve been doing so as we learn of or realize there is something else we’ll need. We also got a free goody bag with actual useful samples. Also, whatever is remaining on our registry, we get 15% off the items. Oh and free shipping for a full year if your registry exceeds $1500 (restrictions apply). 

Continue reading to some shots of shopping in store and some of the items we put on our registry as well as ones we’ve have already received. 

 Here are some items we’ve gotten so far:

1. DockATot® Deluxe+ Dock in Pristine White. I’ve gotten so many recommendations on this an dhow much it helps baby to sleep so it was at the top of my list. Glad we got it and it’s ready and waiting for our baby girl. 

2. 4moms® mamaRoo® 4 Cool Mesh Infant Seat in Dark Grey. Again, another highly recommended item that I am excited to use and hope our baby girl will love it too. It has bluetooth capability, interactive rattles, reclines, and it rocks the baby around in comforting motions. I love the meshed fabric especially for us living in California and will help to keep her cool and comfortable. 

3. Munchkin® STEP™ Diaper Pail Powered by Arm & Hammer®. What sold me on this was that it traps diaper scent. We want her nursery space to be comfortable for all of us and so this was a must. We stocked up on the Soda Cartridge and Pail Refills too. 

4. Safety 1st® HD WiFi Baby Monitor with Sound/Movement Detecting Audio Unit in White. We definitely had to have a video monitoring system. Our consultant in store really helped us narrowed it down to this one. We feel confident that we picked the right one for us. We are excited about this because when my husband goes back to work, he’ll be able to check in and see and hear her. Also, most of our friends and family live internationally and with this we can give them temporary access to see and hear her. I also love that it’s easy to check in on a phone. I mean, almost everyone has a smart phone. 

5. BRITAX Backseat Mirror. We got two sets of this for both of our cars. It’s important for us to be able to safely see her while driving. We also loved that it’s shatter proof for additional safety. 

6. Safety 1st® 2-Pack Deluxe RollerShade. We also got two sets of these for both vehicles because the California sun can be brutal. We want her to be comfortable and any shade to block some sun rays makes me happy. I also like that it offers push-button release. 

7. Burt’s Bees Baby® 100% Organic Cotton Knit Terry Changing Pad Cover in Cloud. I love that this changing table cover is organic. I’m trying to my best to use a good balance of some organic products and items on our baby girl. I saw this and I knew I had to have it. I got three of these. 

8. Burt’s Bees Baby® Alphabet Bee Organic Cotton Changing Pad Cover in Grey This is the same organic changing pad cover as the one above but in a different color. I actually got three of these as well. I love Burt’s Bees Brand and pretty much everything they make. I was happy to see that buybuy BABY carried this brand. 

9. Just Born® Keepsake Deer Plush Toy in Ivory. There are so many toys to pick from but something about the crisp white color and that cute little bow made my heart smile. I had to put it on the registry. 

10. Colgate Memory Foam 3-Sided Contour Changing Pad (not pictured). I also got this changing pad, for which I got the covers I mentioned above. I completely forgot to take a few pictures of it. but I love how soft yet firm it feels. I also love the 3-sided contour which will be great in comfortable while changing her. 

11. Leachco® Snoogle® Chic Jersey Total Body Pillow in Heather Grey (not pictured). I’m now in my third trimester and literally a day after my 24 weeks mark, my whole body started to feel a drastic change. My back pain and stomach cramps intensified and I knew it was time for this body pillow. It’s been a life saver for me. I love wrapping myself into it. My only drawback is that it takes up a lot of space on our bed because we have a queen. I’m totally fine with it though because it gets the job done:)

I feel so much better now that we’ve gotten some of the items out of the way. We’re still adding more stuff to our registry as we go along and we’ll have everything added by the time of our baby shower next month. We thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend buybuy BABY as the registry option for new parents. 

Let me know if there are any other must haves I am missing. Thanks for reading, loves.
