Jessie's Baby Registry

We are so excited to welcome our little one this December! After a long journey and many dreams of growing our family, we feel incredibly grateful to be celebrating this special season with all of you.

One fun surprise: we are waiting until birth to find out whether baby is a boy or a girl! Because of this, we are focusing on gender-neutral clothing and items that can grow with our family.

We have spent a great deal of time researching products, materials, and baby essentials, and have thoughtfully selected the items on our registry based on what we feel is the best fit for our family. Whenever possible, we are hoping to use natural fibers such as organic cotton, bamboo, wool, and other gentle, low-toxicity materials. Jess has already done quite a bit of thrifting, but if you have a special baby item, book, blanket, or outfit that holds meaning to you, we would be honored to receive it.

For those who would like clothing suggestions, here is our general guide based on Connecticut seasons and baby's due date:

• (we do have many thrifted items for this stage) Newborn & 0–3 Months (December–February): fleece sleepers, footed pajamas, long-sleeve bodysuits, cozy hats, mittens, sweaters, and warm layers

• 3–6 Months (March–May): lighter bodysuits, lightweight sweaters, pants, spring jackets, and layering pieces

• 6–9 Months (June–August): onesies, overalls, lightweight shirts, summer pajamas, and breathable clothing

• 9–12 Months (September–November): layering pieces, long-sleeve tops, pants, hoodies, sweaters, and fall jackets

• 12–18 Months (December–June): a mix of winter and spring clothing, including cozy layers, pajamas, sweaters, and everyday outfits
