Baby Things I Adore and Despise!!

Well, after I had Jacob I had something new to talk about with people!!! My questions usually were, what kind of lotions do you use or what brands do you use. Now I have things that I use, don't use and will never use when it comes to my child! So I am going to let it all out and tell all of you guys my likes and dislikes on baby things!

1. Two Words BABY MAGIC... The only lotions I use is Baby magic because it was used on me when I was a baby and it smells SOOOO GOOD!!!

2. I have always said NO to Johnson's products until now!!! I have discovered that Johnson's Lavender baby powder is the best!! It smells WONDERFUL!!! Also, we picked up some of the Johnson's Bubble Bath (the new blue bottle)! Not only does Jacob LOVE the bubbles, it makes him smell SO VERY GOOD (which makes me happy!!)!!!

3. BUTT CREAMS!!! I have been recently having problems with diaper rash with Jacob!!! I know it's caused by the summer heat/sweat and wetness in the diaper and etc..... But I have come to believe that the only thing that has EVER worked for Jacob is A&D ointment!!! The problem is that I ran out of the stuff and it is outrageously expensive!! SO I used this 3 in 1 diaper rash cream and it seemed to make the rash worse!!! So I have now resorted to the plain ol' Vasaline and powder!!!

4. So I loved to use Pamper's Swaddlers when Jacob was first born! Now when I use Pamper's Diapers they leak like crazy!!! So Huggies works the best for Jacob at Night because he tee tee's a lot in his sleep!!! Plus they look cute on him when he runs around with just a diaper on!!!!

5. I used Dr. Brown's Bottles when Jacob was taking a bottle... I just think they were too much work; cleaning the tube and whatnot.... So I think when I have my next kid I want to use Avent!!! No tube, just easy going bottle and nipple!!! NOTE: I do not plan on getting pregnant ANY time soon so I didnt want to freak anyone out by saying "my next kid"!!!!!

6. SIPPY CUPS..... I only use Gerber and Playtex... PERIOD! These cups don't leak as much but anytime you put a "leak-proof" sippy cup in a toddlers hands.... THAT CHILD IS GOING TO FIND A WAY TO MAKE IT LEAK!!! Haha So yeah....

7. I'm not sure about girls but with little boys, if I ever have a boy again, we will buy one pair of shoes every 2 months or less!!! Jacob grew out of his shoes so fast until now!

I will add to this list as I think of things!! I had a wonderful time blogging my thoughts on Baby products!!!! ENJOY!!!
