One of the things that I've been disappointed about is that having a second of the same gender, my shopping opportunities have been severely limited! However I have still managed to buy what I consider to be the bare essentials (hahaha!).

I've bought:
- A charcoal Close Baby Carrier (because I felt that colour more suitable for a winter baby!!!!)
- An arms reach co-sleeper (second hand off ebay)
- 0000 and 000 all in one suits (my first bub was a summer baby and this one is winter)
- New carseat (this will be a gift from PIL)
- Double pram (Baby Jogger City Mini Double - pressie from my parents and brother)
- Peanut shell baby carrier (just coz I felt that having 3 slings wasn't enough)

Still to buy:
- an outdoor swing that I can hang from our back porch. My SIL says that hers was the best ever as it meant she could be out in the backyard with her oldest watching her play whilst the little one was safe and sound.
- Breast pump

I think that's it (and probably enough!)
