Baby Registry: Two Things I Wish I Registered For

Baby Registry Must Haves

Handheld Vacuum - Kids are messy. Newflash, right? I literally use this cordless handheld vacuum no less than 6 times a day.  There is always food on the floor after every meal, dirt, leaves carried in from outside, you name it, it's on my floor. Why didn't a mom tell me to register for one of these way in advance . Get this for every new mom in your life and put a post it on it that just reads TRUST ME! This Black and Decker one is nothing short of amazing.

Black Out Curtains - Sleep. Precious, precious sleep. When my son was born is was all I could think about, when i wasn't stressing over milk production and my recovery.  Why no one told me this little trick about babies and sleeping is beyond me but I need to pass along.   Caveat: This won't help within the first 3 months when babies are eating around the clock. But around 5 or 6 months, create an environment that sustains a sleeping body! These black out curtains are a best seller!
