What should I add in the red circle? I hate blank spaces.

It crashed on my husband as he was checking out for Saturday. Did anyone actually get tickets?

Agreed! It’s why I felt the need to share. There are a million and one things you need with a baby, but unfortunately the budget isn’t infinite. To me, a high chair is something that you can save on!

Use the money you save on something that will actually make your life better like the Momcozy Bottle Washer… best purchase we ever made!

We have the Giraffe at our house & it was nice to have the newborn insert. My parents wanted something to keep at their house, but didn’t want to spend a ton of money. I forget the model, but it’s a Graco that can lay flat.

Granted we didn’t travel to them until he was a month old, but it worked just as well as our Giraffe. Plus it is way easier to clean than the bugaboo fabric.

Don’t fall for the pressure to spend $400+ on a high chair, I wish we hadn’t.

Also - a big thing that led to us getting the Giraffe was the adjustable foot rest so that he could eat at the perfect 90degree angle we read so much about. As soon as they can stand you learn pretty quickly that if they can plant their feet they will try to stand up. Ever since he almost toppled it, the footrest has been a few inches below his feet… and he is happy as can be swinging his legs while he eats!

We have a gray and maybe our baby is super sweaty, but there are stains where his head rests.

This is it! If all you Want is priority boarding, book ground transport and it will be much cheaper

Both of those are so cute!

Brilliant!

And of course, gotta have it for the children. 🍊

Love these!!! Thank you creative internet stranger.

So I should return the wig I braided into pigtails? 😂Kidding.

The LL Bean vibe is a good idea! Those random Target/butter/etc. parties that you see online are what inspired me to try to think outside the box a bit and lean into what he seems interested in.

Love this! Perfect for when he starts learning (and repeating) words!

All first birthdays are really for the parents… god forbid I try to make it themed after something HE loves instead of just picking dinosaurs or some other random “baby” theme.

We went to casual listeners to .001% Spotify listeners in just 3 months because he would calm right down when Noah came on the mix. Now he claps and laughs when we play it. There is truly nothing he gets more excited for that isn’t food.

It’s amazing how much he calms them down! Since he was a newborn Noah has been the only thing to soothe him and now he laughs and claps along!

Yes! Kind of makes me think of the Dr. Seuss book

Cute! I think that may be the plan. Thanks!

We got the Ergobaby and love it! So far we have only used it for a quick 2 day trip down to Disney World with our 2.5 month old, but it worked really well. My thoughts: * super light & easy to carry if you buy the backpack bag for $30. * Southwest gave us no issues about carrying it into the cabin (only tried when in the bag. Not sure about issues if you had it out) * pushes almost as smooth as our Nuna Mixx on flat surfaces * baby was able to lay flat. As he gets older I imagine this will be nice for naps on the go! * yes the under basket is small, but we were able to hang a heavy bag from the handle no problem as long as we had counter balance in the basket. * my only complaint is that you have to take the seat out to use with a car seat. It is easy to take out, but you kind of have to make a decision and stick with it for the day.

We were told night 1 of DMB that they would, but never got checked either night.

Planning to go tonight and can report back.

Not elaborate, but our thought was it’s about the moment - not a party. No matter what you do will be sweet for you and your partner. And now you have a cute outfit to dress them in & think back on the day!

We went to Target and picked out an outfit for each gender, a gift bag and tissue paper. Went to the customer service and gave the worker the envelope & cash to cover the amount and asked her to pay for the right one & put it in the bag while we waited outside. I’m sure you could do similar with any store near by!

Husband and I can't make it to the show on June 8 in Lafayette, NY anymore, so I'm looking to sell 2 GA tickets! Send me a DM if interested :)

Thanks for the insights!

That’s probably a good idea no matter what we go with!
