Four Month Favorites!

Kick & Piano Mat- though we didn't use this for a very long time because we found our Skip Hop mat to be more versatile, Harper loved this piano mat when she was moving her body more and kicking her legs a lot. It also has toys and a nice mirror that hang from the activity bar. Knowing what I know now I would have gotten this for her when she was even younger. We don't use it anymore, but the toys are all detachable and the piano also flips around and can be used later on when baby can sit on his or her own.

Nose Freida- when Harper started daycare, she got what we call the "perma stuffy nose." We use this day and night, when needed to suck out whatever's in there. It sounds gross, but I promise it's not and it WORKS. The bulb nasal aspirators are absolutely useless. Get one of these ASAP if you are expecting. You will thank the doctor who invented it and sing his praises every time you use it!

Boudreauxs Butt Paste- Harper has her first really bad diaper rash a few weeks into starting daycare. It has thankfully been resolved and never recurred, but for a good two weeks we were using this butt paste constantly.  It has 40% zinc and really works.

Aquaphor Baby- Oh Aquaphor. Is there a more versatile product? No. We combined this with the butt paste for Harper's diaper rash and I know it helped tremendously. My friend's nanny actually recommended it and she was right---it works wonders to help keep diaper rash away. I also have a small tube of it that I used on my lips. Best ointment ever.

Baby Einstein Musical Octoplush- this toy was highly rated on amazon. Harper likes the music and it has so many areas you can press to hear the names of colors---and in different languages too! I like hot soft it is and Harper seems to be into it too.

Sassy Books- We try to read everyday and these simple books with pictures and bold, easy words are wonderful when babies are very young. I love how the pictures are designed with younger babies in mind.

Hungry Caterpillar toy- Ever since we got this toy it has been one of Harper's favorites and she still loves it to this day. There are so many fun colorful rings on it and when it stretches out and squiggles back in, its head vibrates. You can also use it as a rattle and Harper laughs when I do this.

Bella Tunno Paci Clips- Harper is obsessed with loves her pacifier. These help keep it clipped to her so it's not always falling on the floor. Now, she can put it back in herself when she wants to. They come in cute prints and colors, though I would appreciate if they sold some in more simple colors and patterns.
