Baby Registry Essentials
Pre-marriage and subsequent baby in the carriage, I considered myself tragically hip -- and, yes, maybe somewhat enslaved to trendy footwear. In fact, as a New York City single twenty-something, I even went so far as to fork over one entire paycheck for a pair of Jimmy Choo stilettos. Fortunately for both my pocketbook and husband, I am currently comfortably ensconced in my role as sensible mommy and me days of flagrant spending on trendy must-haves are behind me.
But I know there are many moms who, like me, are not quite ready to sport "mom jeans" and oversized sweatshirts. Moms who still long to be -- within budget and reason -- just a bit trendy and even get their little babies and kids decked out in fabulous threads and gear. I know I may sound superficial, but sometimes funky diaper bags may be just the thing that can reinvigorate a mom who feels kind of like she's lost her zing since having kids and restore that mischievous twinkle in her eye.
So if you're an urban, diaper-bag-toting mama in need of a little bling, keep reading for Baby Registry Essentials aka Babyriffic Trendy Mommy Must Haves that will make you feel "divalicious"! These fabulous, babycessories- will make life with a tot in tow -easier and infinitely better! Here are a few of my favorite things!

What about FOOD!
The moment they’re ready, you can be ready for them. ZAAZ is more compact than most high chairs, so it’s easier to slide right up to the table. And since food is to kids what paint was to Picasso, we’ve made sure it’s super easy to clean. Wipe ZAAZ down or just remove the parts and pop them in the dishwasher
