During Meredith’s 2nd month, she had a few days of some pretty gnarly diaper rash. I switched to Water Wipes and that did the trick! Meredith’s bum says thank you!
Meredith was much more awake, alert and BUSY this month. The twins have been eyeing her baby toys with lots of interest and were excited to finally be able to “play” with her.
She loves her wooden Haba activity gym and I love it because it’s simple and clean, unlike the over-stimulating, electronic baby jungle gym the twins used. We still have the old monstrosity we used with the twins, but Meredith understandably prefers the simple one. The height is adjustable too, which makes it easy to change things up for her when she’s on the Boppy.
Her favorite danglers are the cute wooden Haba ones and her high contrast Manhattan Toy mobile. Her arms and legs still make jerky movements, but this month, she started intentionally swatting her dangly toys.
Clothes-wise, Meredith has been sporting the twins’ old clothes (double of everything is nice when she spits up on something!) and she’s lucky that she’s been getting so many cute hand-me-downs from her baby friend, Maple. Her favorite new items are the super soft Aden + Anais onesies and her cozy Baby Gap footed sleepers.
The last item is more for me, but now that we’ve been getting out and about to the park more, we’ve fallen in love with our Jujube diaper backpack. Why I ever had an over-the-shoulder diaper bag with the twins, I will never know. Backpacks are so much easier!
It’s clear from revisiting the twins’ favorite things that Meredith has her own unique baby style. How times have changed!
Lots of love,
