Stroller - UPPAbaby Cruz

Stroller Clips For Blankets
For coffee, bottles, sunglasses, snacks, cell phone, etc!
Stroller Organizer (any brand)
My favorite brand - cute, soft, and durable (have held up for 3 kids!). Buy 2 sets of crib sheets + matching changing table covers!
Little Unicorn: Crib Sheets, Blankets, Towels
Starting ~6 months, you'll use these daily. Soft so kids can chew on them for teething too!

Baby onesies - there are *so* many brands. What you want: zipper or magnet (no snaps! no buttons!) closures, double zipper, footed, 100% cotton. Onesies are always my bottleneck to do another load of laundry, so if you're able to buy 9-12 of these, v...
Aablexema Baby Footie Pajamas
For all the laundry!
Dreft Stage 1: Newborn Liquid Detergent
The best pacifiers, doubles as a toy and easy to find when digging around your diaper bag!
WubbaNub
Diaper bag - I bought a random highly recommended brand on Amazon and it's great. The bottle holders in the front pocket are the best!
