Lauren & Sam’s Baby Registry

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"If you know us, you know we are always scouring FB Marketplace, thrift stores, and estate sales for gems to add to our household - and baby gear will be no different! If you'd like to support our 'hunting and gathering' (and to promote all the other benefits of sourcing second hand/locally instead of new) we appreciate your thoughtfulness. We’ve already been able to find a number of our most needed items this way, like a bassinet, stroller, bouncer, changing table/dresser and high chair, and more!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Sam will find a second hand everyday carrier for baby, that fits his frame and comfortable hold the baby for everyday transport :)"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Deer toy & paci clip"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Selecting the 6 toy set would be wonderful to go with a wooden gym bar!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Single size play gym is great!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Honestly either color is fine if finding second hand as a good deal! If new, Anthracite is preferred!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Looking for the Nursing Pillow, in Gingham :)"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Beige"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"We are planning to primarily breastfeed, but if the need arises to use some bottles these would be great to save the day!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"We are planning on cloth diapering, and already will be receiving most materials needed from my sister. We've been advised to add a few extra sets of these Wool Diaper Covers to complete the sizing that they had gotten. Selection we are hoping for from this website is Small Abrazo style (wrap arounds) but as they are specialty products their stock is limited. Color is up to what's available/you pick! If that style is no longer available, Small Traditional or Hybrid sizes are OK too!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"We are receiving a lot of cloth diapering gear from family, but will need more of these wipes!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Size NB Please! While we are planning to cloth diaper, it's been recommended to have some disposables for the first few weeks!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Size 1 please for as baby grows and we will be 'on the go' more! While we are planning to cloth diaper, it's been recommended to have some disposables for the first few weeks!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Grey"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Sam will buy secondhand local locally on Facebook marketplace, it seems like a reasonable budget for this item is around $85. This would be used for our longer hikes and outdoor adventures as soon as the little one is ready! We can't wait to show them all the beauty of Central Oregon and beyond, and this would be the perfect perch for them to take it all in from. :)"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"We already have the crib and mattress by this company but extra sheets are appreciated!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"We already have the crib and mattress by this company, but a cover for it would be great!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Size: King - We will be doing some co-sleeping so this protector will help a lot in case of accidents!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"We are planning to start with a “floor bed” setup following the Montessori guidelines, which can be a more convenient transition for baby to toddler to big kid over the years. With this in mind we plan to invest in a high quality, non-toxic mattress and bed frame that can be used by baby for a long long time, hopefully to teenage! (And still as a guest bed when needed!) If you would like to contribute to this option it is much appreciated, as this will be one of our larger expenditures for the nursery. https://sleeponlatex.com/products/natural-latex-mattress"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"We plan to introduce a “floor bed” after baby is done being in their bassinet/crib, following Montessori developmental guidelines, and plan to just start right out with a twin that they can grow into it for years to come! This flat pad would protect our floors and the mattress for better longevity of both!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Infant size please"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"size 0-9 months please!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"We would like the Special Walnut Stain w/10 gold clips. This will be used for drying wool diaper covers in between uses! (not trying to hint at a girl with the bows... we will still be waiting to see gender until they arrive!)"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Size: 0-3, Color: Henry Would love this bonnet to go with the knitted romper we are also registered for, for early pictures of baby! Our due date is Easter Sunday, so hoping for some fun spring bunny moments! These hand knit items also match the "Henry" bunny we are registered for from Cuddle + Kind!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"This brand of stuffed animals is hand made in Peru, by women that earn a guaranteed fair trade wage. We have listed the smaller version, but are open to the large if interested. Also have seen it on Poshmark for second hand! This bunny also matches with the knitted bonnet and romper are are registered for - would make for some great newborn photos with our own 'some bunny special' on the way!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"Sam had the brilliant realization that for postpartum recovery I will be eating a lot of meals in bed! This tray would be the perfect addition to our nesting setup - and would get lots of use in nourishing momma & baby!"

Note from Lauren and Samuel:

"We are planning on a natural birth, so having this extra support person will be hugely helpful in making this experience as smooth as possible!"
