Baby Keepsakes and Records

Keeping Treasured Baby Keepsakes and Records


For most parents, especially first time parents! Keeping certain items from your child's life tends to be of significant value to you as parents and to the baby when he/she is all grown up! We have the traditional baby keepsakes and the 'new age' parenting ones! lol..

When my son was born, I went out looking for a 'Baby Record Book' where I could record certain milestones and comments about his development. To my splendour, I found one which would cover a time span of his first five years with a strong storage case that has compartments for suggested physical momentous!

Product Reviews - Stork Crib Set

Today I'll be starting with the...

Product Review #2: Stork Crib Set!

This was by far an excellent buy for me as it came with so many useful items and features:

1) Crib

2) Play Pen

3) Changing Table

4) Insect Net

5) Hanging Mobile

6) Baby Bag

This was an unbelievable buy at a not too bad of a price. It's completely collapsable and can easily be stored away when your little one has out grown it.

Product reviews

As I post about different types of products and baby items used, I will be reviewing/talking about the items for the benefit of future/current parents looking to get the best for their babies.

Product #1: Huggies!

Huggies is pretty popular where I'm from and by default ended up being my first choice. The newborn Huggies was pretty neat as it had a wetness indicator on the outside of the pampers that let's you know when your little one needs a nappy change! One common error most newbie baby care givers make, is they just open the pamper and throw it on and boom! "pampered baby!!"

Post Baby Shopping

Because he was born so early, I hadn't gotten to buy enough baby essentials and thus had to do some emergency baby shopping! Some of the major branded items I bought were:

Huggies pampers and wipes (other brands of wipes especially were totally useless!!):

Complimentary gift courtesy the hosptial he was born in.

Carter's onesies and a cute boy blankie:

The birth of my bundle of joy!

Although Small Man is like nearly 16mths already. I'm going to start with stories from since before he was born.

I had a really tough pregnancy where I was in panick mode and hiding from everyone while I try to figure out what my future as a Mom would be like. I didn't take much care of myself during the pregnancy, and didn't take the pre-nathal supplements and was always on my feet, lifting, bending and doing all the pregnancy DONT's we all as parents know about.
