Items To Register For Beyond The Newborn Stage

July 1, 2019 LIFESTYLE, MOTHERHOOD, REVIEWS

It’s so hard to think beyond the newborn stage while deciding on what to register for your first baby. It’s not until you realize how quickly it all goes by that you kick yourself for registering for all the items you won’t use past the first 6 months. I shared the top 20 items to register for and the mistakes I made here when registering. Walmart Baby Registry makes everything so seamless when creating your registry. Not only do you get special perks like a “welcome box”, but they have so many different options from premium brands to more affordable options! Check out items we have used for the past TWO years.

Celebrating Jax’s 2nd Birthday Party, he’s exactly 10 days younger than the twins.
Hello Bello bubble bath and shampoo. Walmart baby registry.
Bath time is our favorite.

For Bathing:

  1. Shampoo and Bubble Bath: I feel like I’ve tried almost every brand of baby shampoo and bubble bath. This one is plant-based, paraben free, vegan, cruelty-free, smells great, makes a lot of bubbles (which is important to me LOL), and affordable.
  2. Bath toys: We have had a few of these. The boys love them, when they were teething they would chew on them during the bath.
  3. Shampoo Rinser: They fight over this so much. We really should buy another one. It’s great for getting the shampoo out of their hair, but they just like dumping water out of it.
  4. Bath Mat: Your knees will thank you for this later lol.

For Travel:

  1. A stroller that will grow with your family is so important. We have used this one since day one. Flying with it was a breeze and it doesn’t take up too much space on a road trip.
  2. The twins slept in this for the first nine months right next to our bed. Once they were older we would just put all their toys in it and they would play for hours it seemed like. Now we use it while we are traveling for them to sleep.
  3. This thing still calms them down. Especially if we are away from home and don’t have our sound machine.
  4. I cannot stress enough about being handsfree when out and about. We have used a backpack since day one and it helps so much.
  5. This chair is great for traveling, but you could easily use it at home too!

For Sleep:

  1. The twins are still in their crib, and I don’t plan on transitioning them any time soon [fingers crossed].
  2. We have this and love it. If we do transition them we will still use this for their toddler bed. Using a cover like this helps so much with changing the bed when they get sick or have a leak in the middle of the night.
  3. White noise is crucial for our boys to sleep through the night.
  4. These curtains help keep the room dark so that they fall asleep quickly.
  5. We have this monitor because we needed two cameras.

For Diapering

  1. We still have so much of this left from a baby shower, it really clears up our diaper rashes.
  2. Newborn twins use about 20 diapers a day, I really liked that we could use regular trash bags with this one. Our friends with other diaper pails complain about the smell, but it’s never been an issue with this one.
  3. I just keep these in the diaper bag for when we are out and I need to get rid of a dirty diaper in public.

For Play:

  1. My Mom got us this when the twins were 6 months old and they still play with them almost daily.
  2. They used to sit and play with this, but now they run around it while the music is playing.
  3. I didn’t find these until way later, but I know they would have loved them early on. They LOVE these, we have so many sets haha.

It’s been a year since I launched my blog, and I It’s been a year since I launched my blog, and I’m no longer in this space for the reasons I once was. To the world, my life is noticeably different than it was a year ago. God has spent this last year pruning back what was dead, so that my branches could bear more fruit. The refining process is heavy, and I know there’s still so much more work to be done. My hope is that when you see the changes in my life, you know it’s is absolutely by no work of my own, but by His grace my eyes were opened and my heart was changed. Allowing me to let go of cultural norms, relearn how to live slowly and simply, and rediscover who he created me to be. Thank you for your grace over this past year, y’all have never put me in a box and have always allowed me to “be”. It’s something I don’t take for granted. I love you. -Lauren
Have the courage to have self-awareness, to realiz Have the courage to have self-awareness, to realize where you’re at in life, and be okay with it. Keep your hunger and leave out negativity. Don’t fear adversity, but instead embrace it. Reflect on what you’ve done right, what you can do better, and keep on. Take the steps to develop yourself into who you want to be and the life you want to live. Forgive yourself, love yourself, and don’t waste your time trying to fit in. 
Set yourself apart, as you, vulnerable and true. 
Appreciate family and the little things, and most of all, have faith. He has a plan. So quit worrying and be the best present you because that’s all you can do.

H&B- I may have given birth to you, but you gave m H&B- I may have given birth to you, but you gave me life. God used you to heal me. To awaken a fire in me. You taught me to let go of the lie that life is supposed to be perfect. You have shown me the true meaning of happiness. I hope I get to spend the rest of my days giggling, outside, and barefoot. Forever & always.
I never thought I’d be here. I’ve kept my opin I never thought I’d be here. I’ve kept my opinions and suspicions to myself for awhile now. This season has drained me. What world are we building for our children? 
Tomorrow is a day to celebrate mothers, but I honestly can’t celebrate when -
-a mother is mourning the loss of her son who was murdered because of the color of his skin
-mothers can’t provide for their children due to circumstances out of their control and to no fault of their own
-mothers are giving birth alone
-mothers are dying alone
-mothers are getting arrested for taking their children to the park
-mothers are fighting, ridiculing, and belittling each other online because #science -mothers are having their children ripped from their arms for not providing identification
-mothers are trapped in their homes with their abusers

Wake me up from this nightmare. 
This is not a democrat vs. republican issue. This is not a antivax vs. provax issue. 
This is simply a FREEDOM issue.

To my brothers and sisters who look differently than me, I love you. To my brothers and sisters who think differently than me, I love you. I want us ALL to be free. Free to live our lives without fear. Free to choose what is best for our bodies and our families. Satan wants us to fight with each other. 
In the end, you’re either supporting God’s agenda or you aren’t.  Our Heavenly Father is absolutely a God of love, but he is also one of justice. The time to speak up is now. We need each other.
Forgive me, but my soul is rejoicing. People every Forgive me, but my soul is rejoicing. People everywhere are waking up. Realizing that the list of what we actually need to be healthy and happy is very small. Almost as if God intended it that way 😏 I’m sick of fear, I’ve walked in it too long. Trust in the Lord, and remember this is not our forever home.
Happy Anniversary JHC. You are always the steady r Happy Anniversary JHC. You are always the steady rock my wild soul needs. I’m so thankful God gave me you. You love me for everything thing I am, and everything I’m not. To think 10 years ago this was all just a dream and now it’s my reality 😭💖🙌🏻 It’s no secret our family loves the outdoors, it’s the greatest medicine and reminder to enjoy life around you. Happy Earth Day 🌎 •
The earth is the LORD’s, and everything in it. The world and all its people belong to him. Psalm 24:1
Our children will learn something during this time Our children will learn something during this time. It may not be how to read, but how in the midst of uncertainty and crisis take care of ourselves and others. Parents: I know these are difficult times, but you cannot fail at a job you were created to do. God is in control 🙌🏻🌿
