We are 9-ish weeks from welcoming our baby boy and I’m in full nesting phase! Which is fantastic, but also means our small home is becoming increasingly crowded. You see, we found out we were expecting shortly after re-signing our lease. And between not wanting to move with a newborn and wanting to know where Haven will be enrolled in kindergarten before moving, we’ve decided it’s best to stay put for a while. That means we need to be smart and selective with our baby gear purchases.

We’re especially excited about two products that will undoubtedly get the most use over the next few years: the Stokke Trailz stroller and Stokke Tripp Trapp Newborn Set. Both of these products fit with our smart and selective philosophy. And infinite bonus points for both products because they also mesh seamlessly with our personal styles.

Other than the Stokke Trailz stroller being incredibly stylish {and I mean, INCREDIBLY!}, there are a handful of features that make this stroller invaluable to us. First, is how close the baby will be to me while strolling him around. I love how easily he and I will be able to interact on long walks and during errands. And my lower back loves that I won’t need to constantly bend over to check up on him or pick him up.

Rewinding back to errands, take a look at this cargo bin! My large purse and even larger reusable grocery bag fit with space to spare. I always struggled with Haven’s stroller because I felt like I had to squat to shove my purse in her stroller. And as she got heavier, her bum crept into the cargo bin. There’s such a good distance between the seat and the cargo bin that I don’t see lack of space ever being an issue with this stroller.

And the all-terrain tires are a must for us. As mentioned before, we don’t have the space for a stroller that fits every one of our needs. We spend as much time walking trails as we spend running errands, so having a stroller that can transition between each condition is so helpful.

And then a fun bonus is the Stokke Trailz Sibling Board. It’s important to me to keep Haven close to me as we’re traveling through parking lots or crowded environments. But lately, as she starts to worry about how having a baby around will impact her only child world, I also see the value in how the Sibling Board helps her feel included.

The Stokke Tripp Trapp High Chair carries over a handful of the same qualities that I love about the Stokke Trailz. Most of the baby gear I’ve seen sits on the ground, which makes it difficult for baby to engage with surrounding family. I find it hugely beneficial that the Stokke Tripp Trapp Newborn Set elevates baby so he can engage with us on the couch, at the dining table, or in the kitchen while we’re cooking. Mealtimes are a treasured time in our home and I sincerely can’t wait to have baby boy at the table with us!

And lastly, I couldn’t have asked for a high chair/seat to fit more perfectly with our home decor. The Stokke Tripp Trapp feels like an intentional piece of furniture in our home and I am so thankful for that. This high chair comes with a newborn set for lounging, baby set for feeding and turns into an adjustable seat that our boy will be able to use until preschool. And because this high chair is so attractive, it’s a piece of baby gear that we’ll enjoy having around for the next several years.
