I used to do this with Vivi, and thought it would be fun to do again.  Here are a few of my favorite baby things right now, that I am loving with Ellie James.

(1) This bunny hat.  It's pretty much the cutest.  I have found that when I'm having a long day, I just pop this on Ellie's head, and I can't help but smile.

(2) This tank jumper.  It's so sweet and cuddly, and easy to put on and off.  I love all the colors, and it's really cute under a little cardigan if it's a bit chilly.

(3) Cloud wool rug.  It's perfect as a cozy spot for baby to lay or do tummy time, and I like putting it under the play gym.

(4) Oli and Carol toys.  I love the vintage shapes, designs and colors.  They are all natural, and will make great teethers as well as bath toys.  The big girls are equally as enchanted with them, too!

(5) This quilt.  I just think it's beautiful, and I love packing it for trips or playdates to have a clean place for Ellie to play.

(6) This wooden and crochet teether.  It's just plain beautiful.

(7) These knit rattle balls.  This is a great toy for the big girls to use when playing with Ellie.  They are soft, which means no accidental bumps, and the little noise they make is fun. I think Ellie will have fun with them when she gets big enough to roll them around on her own, too.

(8) Gaston.  This book is just adorable and I love the story.  It's not really a baby book, but we read a lot with Ellie, too, and this has been a favorite of late.

(9) I love Lucy Darlings books!  The illustrations and colors are really sweet, and it's just as fun to talk about the places and landmarks with the big girls as with Ellie.  These also make really sweet shower gifts.
