The Essentials

So I thought I would share the products we pretty much couldn't live without especially for the first 3 months anyways! 

1) Snugabunny Swing 

Seriously a game changer. & it's not necessarily this brand but it seems to be the softest. Andrew said if there was an adult version we would totally be all over that! Our girls don't even have much reflux but the incline helps them with what little they do and the rocking motion puts them right to sleep!!

2) Tommie Tippie Travel Warmer

I honestly have no clue what we did before this warmer. Well- yes I do. We used sink water in hopes it would get hot enough. And we didn't go places that didn't have accessibility to a sink in fear we would have to feed them. It's pretty much a $20 glorified thermos with attachable lid (which is totally the gimmick otherwise you have to carry around a seperate cup to pour the hot boiling water and sit your bottle in. It's 100% worth it and we use it daily. My mom and dad use it when babysitting as they don't have a bottle warmer. It's one of the few things we have had to buy and it's more than worth it! 

3) Thirty One Diaper Bag- 

I didn't register for this and I have no clue how we would have survived with the small diaper bag I did register for. It fits everything nicely and there's still a little room for my stuff (since carrying a purse is a far far away thought these days). Sure- it gets heavy but when there's double of everything- it's definitely going to be! 

4) Long Sleeve White Onsies-

This is seriously a must have! Our girls were born in August. Ella was in preemies and Bria was in newborns. Which was fine. Once we FINALLY hit 0-3 months it was cold weather and we had all these cute tanks, shirt sleeve shirts, etc. You can basically turn a baby's wardrobe into whatever you want it to be if you have these. Seriously. 

Perfect example! Cute cute tank! 

& still looks completely adorable with it underneath! More long sleeve onsies are on our Christmas list- we use them regularly! 

5) Fleece Blankets- 

You can NEVER have too many. Of course, we use double of everything so! We have a set for them to sleep with, nap with during the day, a set that stays in their car seat and a set to play on during the day.  I would love a big kid version of these. They are super super soft. 

6) Gripe Water- 

Our girls are gassy. & this seems to help! It's oretty self explanatory. Ella gets backed up sometimes and it helps relieve her little upset tummy! 

7) Piano Gym- 

This should probably be #1- but since these aren't in any order... I cannot explain how much my girls LOVE this. They love the music, the kicking, and especially looking at their beautiful selves! It's used daily. Well I should really say it's used hourly!

Other things not pictures we love: 

Having a Crap Ton of burp clothes- necessary 

Similac orthodontic nipples

Baskets to organize bottle supplies. Ex) one basket for bottles, one for nipples/lids, one for spoons, cups, etc. organization is KEY!

JJ Cole Car seat Covers- we just got ours on the mail, but they are an absolute MUST- it's freezing here already! 

I'm probably sure this list will change in the next 3 months- but these are must haves! (At least to our set of gorgeous twins it is!)
