Holy heatwave! Summer weather is officially back ( & with a vengeance! π₯ )That means beach days, poolside lounging π¦ , and a ton of outdoor activities. π³ ⛲️
This year, with the addition of a 3 month old πΆπ» , my summer essentials checklist has gotten a little bit bigger...ok a lot bigger π
I wanted to share a few of my favorite baby products that I purchased & have been loving so far that keep my baby cool, clean and comfortable ππΌ
Banana Boat Simply Protect Spray Baby Sunscreen: The most important summer baby item: SUNSCREEN!! There are a bunch of great brands with baby options. I like this one's easy spray application & the fact that it doesn't have a crazy smell or leave my babies skin irritated.
Skip Hop Bottle Bag : This is a great bag for keeping up to 2 bottles cold or warm. It comes with an ice pack & convenient strap. Throw it in your stroller or take it with in the car and your good to enjoy hours without your milk going bad.
Car Bottle Warmer: Portable warmer that plugs right into your cigarette lighter. Warms up a bottle in under 30 mins. Great for road-trips or in my case, an hour ride to/from the beach.
Ylovetoys Beach Tent: I purchased this tent for some upcoming beach days. I like that it's big enough for me to fit inside with my baby but it's not too obnoxiously big. The extended mat is great for extra room for lounging on while baby sleeps/plays inside.
Infant Tube: Of all the infant tubes I researched online, this one had the best reviews for young babies (under 6 months). Most other tubes that claimed to be for infants had reviews saying their seats were too big/deep or required babies to already be able to sit up well on their own. This one is great for my three month old; it allows her to lay forward on her belly in a "tummy-time" position and I can have complete control to swim around with her safely.
Swan Baby Towel Set: Love this fun swan towel set. It's meant for the bath but I bought it for the pool/beach. It comes with the most adorable little slippers and wash cloths.
Pampers Splashers Disposable Diapers : These were the only swim diapers I could find for babies under 16lbs. My daughter is just over 13lbs so they should be perfect for the next few months.
Pampers Pure Aqua Wipes: These wipes are 99% water. I use them for diapering and as a last minute body/face wipe when I don't have others handy.
Huggies Clutch Wipe Case: This wipe case is KEY when I'm on the go. Easily hangs on the stroller or slips in the diaper bag. Holds a good amount of wipes (I haven't had to re-fill mine yet!)
Dreambaby Stroller Fan: I LOVE this fan. It's lightweight and flexible & has super soft foam blades so I don't have to worry about her fingers or feet hitting into it.
