Some of My Favorite Baby Things

H&M Organic Cotton Onesies- First of all you can't beat the price $3.95 and they are so unbelievably soft.

Little Rocky's favorite books. I have been reading to him since he was a newborn and these are the ones he gets most excited about.
This is one of the first things Little Rocky started grabbing and he could pass it easily from hand to hand. Now that (we think) he is teething he loves to gnaw on it.
These finger puppets by Folkmanis are so awesome. They are super soft and very detailed. I put them up on a mobile when we aren't using them and Little Rock loves to look at them.
I love my Moby Wrap. Yes, these seem pretty complicated at first but, once you get the hang of it they are wonderful. The options are much more flexible than just forward and back facing like other carriers. Also, the straps are so wide so the weight is distributed better (comes in handy when you have a big healthy boy like mine:). I could go on and on about this but seriously so much easier to go shopping without a stroller to maneuver and the best part of all you get to snuggle and kiss the top of your baby's head non-stop.
With all the plastic concerns these days I knew I wanted to do glass bottles. We have used these bottles from the start and Little Rocky has been a happy little eater. Aside from his mother's clumsiness (I have broken 3) they are great.

Burt's Bee Shampoo & Body Wash & Diaper Ointment. The Body Wash smells so good, doesn't dry his skin and a little goes a long way. The diaper cream works so good our little guy hasn't had even a hint of a rash since we discovered it.
This cream is so thick and leaves his skin silky soft. It also smells so delicious.
I don't know much about essential oils but my mother in law uses them and told me about Ravensara. It is mild enough to use on babies and is an anti-viral and also an expectorant. All I know is Little Rocky has not been sick (knocking on wood right now). We rub 1 drop on each of his feet whenever he seems like he might not feel good or when he has been near anyone who isn't feeling good.
