Baby Foxi is seven weeks today and it’s like she has been with us forever, but really we know she was just meant for us. Life has been so much sweeter with her in it! It’s safe to say we are all pretty smitten over here! The boys are the first to hold her when she’s awake and Quinn was absolutely meant to be a big sister - Foxi really lucked out in the sibling department! Dino and I pretty much just stare at her. All day. She is just that delicious.
I had previouslypulled together a post, pre-Fox, with all the essentials I was planning on using but now that we are settled into a routine, I have pulled together a list of things I am loving, grabbing first and using on a very regular basis. I feel like you always go into birth thinking you are fully prepared and know what you need or what your esthetic may be, but things get messy real fast (check out that Foxi highlight for more!) and you may just need to adjust. Also, it is SO FUN seeing their little personalities develop, they may even tell you in their subtle ways which blanket or sling they love! Here’s what we are loving: Newton Mattress:I really can’t express it enough, just how comfy this mattress is. Plus it gives me peace of mind because it is so breathable! It's also 100% washable and as I mentioned before...things are getting messy 'round these parts! Use my code ASHLEYP for $50 off! Diaper bag:My faves from @cleobella made a diaper bag and in true fashion, it is SO good! I LOVE their products! Fave blanket right now:@brixton.phoenix- it’s thicker and perfect for the stroller and when we know she needs to be extra snuggly and cozy. Snuggle Me Organic:Has been so great to bring around with us as we’ve traveled. Super simple to pack and makes for the perfect infant on the go bed! She sleeps so well in it! Our@plumandsparrowbassinet has been so great! We didn’t think we would use it as much as we have, but she sleeps in it most nights by our bed. Our@charliecranepariswood bouncer is so beautifully designed. We just love the look of it and it’s so cozy for her around the house and easily transferable from room to room. Sling:WildBird - looks way more complicated that it is - and holds the babe SO WELL! Give me those snuggs! Baby balm from@jambabyshopI use it on Foxi after a bath or if she has dry skin and even on my lips! So my kisses are good for her skin.
And of course the clothes, can't forget the itty bitty clothes! Quincey Mae:so soft, so buttery, can't get enough. Favorite night time pjs because there are no buttons or zippers! (nude jammies pictured on Dino)CottonOnKids:really well priced and so cute (colorful floral jammies pictured in crib)@brixton.phoenix:LITERALLY the softest textiles! Her pretty yellow blanket is from them and we grab for it all the time.@carlyjeanlosangeleskidsmy favorite swaddle! So soft! Has the best simple but unique blankets - we have been wearing her stuff for years and years (blanket pictured in coffee bar)@bravelittleonesis also one of my go to's for simple, they have a great fit, but super soft anything - you can't go wrong! (brown / pink onesies pictured) And in case you missed it:Foxi's Birth Storyis on the blog. Lot's more to come with this little angel!
