Babies Don’t Have to Include a Million Gadgets

I have been to a lot of baby showers this year. At one, I felt hugely overwhelmed by the number of “needed” items for successful parenthood. I left with a vow that I would figure out how to acquire fewer goods and not let everything baby take over my house.

Maybe wishful thinking, but a girl can dream.

Today this wonderful blog post came up in my feed and left me reassured that simplicity is still attainable. We live in an age where materialism drives so much of what we do, it is nice to imagine a life with baby that does not require quite so many shiny gadgets. I’m going to be very intentional about my registry.

Anything on the must-include list you want to suggest?
