MUSIC! </p> <p>We love that we got a baby lullaby CD plus some CD's for the car with kid music. It is really nice that when she is fussy we can turn on some of her music and she calms down. We turn her lullaby cd on each night (really I loaded it to an ipod in her room and keep the CD in my car). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-286006 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 10:13:04 +0000 hellobeeboston 286006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>wow- looks awesome! found a few things on your list that I forgot to get! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-285983 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 10:03:53 +0000 DillonLion 285983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tororojo: Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-285982 Fri, 07 Sep 2012 10:03:47 +0000 DillonLion 285982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: Thanks!

I love seeing other people's and it gave me tons of ideas for stuff we still need to put on ours! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284487 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:35:42 +0000 heffalump 284487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Luckily people LOVE buying baby stuff! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284483 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:34:59 +0000 DillonLion 284483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Yeah, you're right. Hopefully this baby will need and want every thing on the registry. And everyone buys it. LOL. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284476 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:31:51 +0000 heffalump 284476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: It's so hard to know what you need until you have your LO! Especially because every baby is different.... so we could try to tell you what works for us and our babies but your needs could be completely different. I've wasted so much money on baby crap :( Hopefully it you'll have better luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284468 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:27:05 +0000 DillonLion 284468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Ah okay, thanks for the explanation. That makes a lot of sense. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284462 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:25:13 +0000 heffalump 284462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Do you mean for bibs? Personally I like to have something that attaches to her and stays on to catch the drool constantly. She's a big drooler..... but I assume most babies are when they are teething at least. Burp cloths are more useful for putting on yourself to catch the spit up when your burp them (or if your LO just has a lot of spit up). </p> <p>One other thing that I love is our reusable placemat for when we go out to eat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284446 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:17:38 +0000 DillonLion 284446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Would those gerber prefolds work for that or do I need something more specific?</p> <p>Ha wasn't sure what else I'd need besides spoons, so thanks for the suggestion to get a few more items related to baby eating on there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284440 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:13:09 +0000 heffalump 284440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you have cloth bibs for drooling? Something I wish I did was put stuff for starting solids. 6 months (or earlier for some people) creeps up on you fast! I saw you have spoons, but bowls, plates, ice cube trays if you plan on making your own food, sippy cups, etc. Also, do you have a baby book? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284437 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:12:05 +0000 DillonLion 284437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@googly-eyes: @Mrsbells: I'm sure we'll probably get some J&amp;J stuff anyway, so I may as well switch it out for the gentler stuff. Thanks for the suggestion! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284433 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 16:09:48 +0000 DillonLion 284433@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: I thought one of the pads was just a cover, but maybe it was a changing pad and over, so I just removed it. Also, I'm not sure what you mean about an infant seat not adjusting from the front. Do you mean our car seat?</p> <p>@tororojo: Eek ew yeah bed bugs. Thanks for the reminder. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284364 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:38:40 +0000 cvbee 284364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: perfect </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284333 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:24:15 +0000 DillonLion 284333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cvbee: Have a nursing cover already and a tub I think is at the very bottom of the registry </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284332 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:23:42 +0000 DillonLion 284332@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Thehistoryofus: Have a laundry basket already! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284319 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:17:12 +0000 tororojo 284319@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: You might try Marshall's for the boppy--I saw several there the other day for $25, which includes a slipcover and no bedbugs! (No judgement on garage sales though, secondhand is great and I'm sure you're very cautious!) I know inventory is different at all of them, but we're both in the Dallas area so maybe you'll have luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/critique-my-registry#post-284304 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:08:20 +0000 Mrsbells 284304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have that exact travel system we got it on sale!<br /> I would add an extra cover for the boppy and I would rather get the nose frida nasal aspirator. Also since th johnson baby bth time set cost $20 I'd rather put u a more skin friendly option such as burts bees which is more natural and less likely to irritate baby skin </p>
