1. Bath Seat
Addison was in her bath seat from the time we stopped using the baby tub up until last week, a good 9+ months. She still fits in it (has quite a bit of room actually) and we would probably still use it if she didn't prefer to be everywhere. This girl loves bath time and this seat was our best friend. The front opens to get your little one in and out easily.

2. Shopping Cart Cover
One of my all-time favorite baby things. We absolutely love our cover from Balboa Baby. It is not only perfect for shopping carts (exception for Target) but also high chairs and we have used this countless times. It can go right into the washer and dryer and come out looking good as new. We don't leave the house without it.

We got our first package as a gift and now they are a diaper bag staple. I love these and get asked all the time "Where did you get those? That is the best idea ever!" Not only is this great for the not-so-clean restaurant tables but it makes clean-up a synch. Chick-fil-a has them for you if you dine-in and you can get them just about anywhere - Walmart, Target, Babies-R-Us, etc.

4. Diaper Genie Elite
You either love them or you hate them and we happen to love ours. It fits perfectly in a corner of Addison's room, holds a lot of diapers, and completely masks any smell. We don't even know it is there unless we use it of course and haven't had any problems with it.

5. Outdoor Swing
We have a lot of pictures of little A in this swing by Little Tikes. She loves it and is a great way for her to get outside.

6. Booster SeatLove this. We debated on foregoing a highchair and just using this booster which we could have totally done. We do have both and use both. The booster goes with us any time we travel and doubled as her bath seat when we were away from home. It works in a chair or even just on the floor of a hotel room for lunch. We have done both. Durable and super easy to transport.

7. BOB Jogging Stroller
This was a gift for Mother's Day. I didn't realize how much I missed having a jogger until I got it. It has such a smoothe ride for Addison. I have walked with this more than jogged but I do love it. Addison sits up higher and can lay down if she naps. The canopy is probably the best part, it covers baby so well.

8. Britax Car SeatWe have been very pleased with our choice in car seat. We honestly didn't look much. We heard great things about Britax so we went for it. Addison has been forward facing in this seat since she was 10 months old. Yes, I know regs/recommendations have changed but her knees were in her face facing backwards. Anyways, she loves it, we love it and we would definitely recommend it.

9. Munchkin Spoons
Our favorite spoons by far. Because the handle is longer than most, these spoons made feedings a breeze. The spoon is the perfect size and they wash great. Addison has even started feeding herself a little bit with these guys.

10. Sassy Photo Book
Addison loves books and has for a long time. I would say her first favorite for some time was You Are My Cupcake and now she loves any book she can find including the one in the picture. This one has places for pictures inside. As an infant it was one of her preferred chew toys but now Addison loves to go through and name everyone she sees especially her Daddy and my sister's dog, Kirby.
