 | Baby Trend Snap N Go Stroller
Buy new: $69.99 Great for running errands with the baby. But ours is a bit tricky to turn - maybe because it's rusty - or maybe similar products from Graco and Kolcraft are better.

 | HALO SleepSack 100% Cotton Wearable Blanket, Baby Blue, Small
Buy new: $19.98 / Used from: $16.44 Essential until they tell us we didn't need to worry about SIDS after all ... The zipper can be a pain but I haven't found a better product. Get the cream if you might have another child. The fleece ones are good for winter.

 | Wimmer-Ferguson Infant Stim-Mobile
Buy new: $29.00 Might you have 5 minutes now and then to change the cards? If so, this mobile will keep pace with the changes in your baby's vision and mental development. A friend never changed the cards and it still kept her babe entertained. This was the first "toy" that our baby noticed.

 | Philips AVENT ISIS Manual Breast Pump, White

 | Petunia Pickle Bottom Boxy Backpack Winterberry Roll
I'm a bit embarrassed to put such a pricey diaper bag on a "simple" baby list, but I've really loved it. The backpack option is great for when you're carrying your tot in a front-carrier and the shoulder option is for when your babe is in a sling, on your back, you just want to dress up a bit or put the bag on the handles of your stroller. It's been well worth the $150 I paid for it.
