Favorite Things for Baby: A Nordstrom Giveaway
I can comfortably say that it’s taken me seven years of parenting and nearly four full-term pregnancies to know what I like in terms of products for this amazing/crazy period of life. I’m finding out that my preferences on nearly everything is bleeding over into each other: Fabrics that I prefer, foods and food preparation that I’m neurotic about, policies from brands that I respect and others that I can do without. I make all of my decisions based on some facet of my experience as a parent, though I suppose it could be age (I prefer the former).
Much of my experience purchasing products that I raise my children with comes from shopping-which, I’ll be honest, is a lot of fun for me. I really do enjoy buying things not only generally speaking but especially as it relates to my family and my children. Especially clothes.
This is why when I was asked to be a featured blogger with Nordstrom both online and in person at a local event, I was really excited to team up with them. A lot of my favorite brands can be found at Nordstrom, and they’ve really expanded their baby sections in so many great ways that makes the shopping experience both fun and easy. And ok maybe it gives me another excuse to look at their shoe department, too.
I’m thrilled to be able to host a giveaway of some of my favorite things that can be found at Nordstrom to one of you!
Diaper bags are generally a pretty personal thing to choose, however this particular StorkSak bag is not only super chic but also functional, and dad won’t be embarrassed to carry it.
Aden + Anais is a trusted brand that I’ve used consistently since Zoe was born and will be using with our new addition in September. Their muslin swaddling cloths are so soft and breathable, and they only get softer with wear and washing. I’ve been known to use one on occasion myself.
These Nordstrom day-of-the-week onesies are cute and functional, but also would make a darling gift. There’s one thing I can never get enough of, and that’s cotton onesies.
Win it:
To enter to win the StorkSak “Bobby” Four Piece Diaper bag, two four packs of Aden + Anais swaddling blankets and the Nordstrom Baby Bodysuits pack, please follow Momma’s Gone City on Facebook and go to my curated picks on Nordstrom.com and leave a comment with your favorite item from that group.
Contest runs through June 30th. Good luck!

By far my favorite is the Aiden & Anais sealing cloths. We used them almost exclusively with my son and bought so many because i love their designs, but their feel the best. Swaddler, breastfeeding covers, sun blocker, stroller cover, (mom’s) occasional pillow/blanket, burp cloth, you name it…we’ve used them for it. I heard they sell adult items, but I’m worried that I’ll blow my salary if I investigate…

I love it all š but if I must pick one it definitely has to be the “Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed” board book; reading is so important.
The Maxi cosĆ car seats look amazing. I have the infant one and these toddler ones look really safe. I also love the skirt with the flamingos. Adorable!
Simply in love with Aden and Anias anything! esp the swaddling blankets…so so soft, I can’t wait to get my hands on a few after previewing their amazing snuggly warmth and softness from a friends nursery…so dreamy !
It is a tie between the Bloombaby ‘Coco- Stylewood Infant Seat Frame which looks absolutely wonderful and the aden + anais Swaddling Cloths which no baby/mother should be without!
My pick would be the Skip Hop diaper bag!
The onesies and the swaddlers.
Those sealing blankets are incredible!
I love the aden + anais swaddle blankets.
The storksak diaper bag looks awesome, I would love that! But with baby #2 on the way I’m a sucker for the Aden + Anais blankets – my all time favorite baby essential. Great give-a-way!! š
Aden and Anais swaddling blankets are the best!!
Love the ergo! My first baby wasn’t a fan but my second one can hang out in there all day long!
I love the tickle monster book kit. š
I love the Bugaboo ‘Cameleon³’ Tailored Fabric Set & Stroller with Extendable Canopy. It’s perfect for babies (like mine) that enjoy laying flat during our daily strolls through our neighborhood. Also the Mamaroo is amazing and my newborn daughter loves it.
I can’t get enough of the Aden and Anais swaddle blankets!!! I own so many of them. They have so many uses: nursing cover, swaddle, security blanket, ect.
I’m loving the Sovereign Code ‘Keegan’ Hoodie. Hoodie tees are the best for my 3 year old for beach days and simply living by the coast, where you never know the weather from one block to the next (we live in SC too). However, we’ve got #2 on the way and I know how essential the Aden+Anais swaddles are- our son still uses them every day!
The 3 Sprouts storage bins are a favorite at our house too!
Love the Ergo!!! Baby happy and mamma too!
I can’t wait to get the ergobaby carrier and carry around our first little one this October!
My 2 year old son, Jett LOVES his Little Giraffe ‘Luxe’ Blanket. We can’t go anywhere without it! I’m crazy about all of your picks! I’m expecting my 3rd in November and would love a new diaper bag! My diaper diva is looking a bit rough and I’m sure my husband would appreciate something a little more masculine!
I love the aden + anias swaddling blankets… so soft & breathable.
I, too, am obsessed with Aden and Anais swaddle blankets! But I think my favorite from the “Blogger Faves” would have to be the Stokke Baby Convertible Sleepi Convertible Crib and Toddler Bed which I have coveted since my first baby boy was born 5 years ago! (We’re being practical and recycling our original crib when Baby Boy #2 arrives next month.) And I have to throw in an “Honorable Mention Award”- the Twig Creative ‘Wooden Instagram’ Toy Camera is just too cute! I love that it sparks creativity and imagination while being aesthetically pleasing at the same time.
The Maxi cosĆ car seats look amazing.
I love the Plush Mamaroos and Bugaboo Cameleon 3.
I’ve used the Aden and Anais with all my kids too and love all the new prints they have! Best blankets ever!
Soooooo many great pics! I’ve always been a fan of the Stokke stroller. Your taste in boys clothes is inspiring! I love my Ergo Baby & saw it posted. Does Nordies not carry the new Ergo Baby 360? I want that!
I like the Danzo Baby ‘San Ysidro Hobo’ Diaper Bag in green! Great color!
That diaper bag looks amazing!! & I love the swaddle blankets, can never have enough!!

Love the Aden + Anais blankets!
Love the ergo set that includes the infant insert! It looks so comfy for momma and baby!
So many of our must have items are on your list!
We love our Aden & Anais swaddle blankets, soft breathable swaddle, nursing cover or breathable car seat cover protects little from the sun!
Ergo carrier! Our babe was colic for the first few months and constantly had to be held…. Don’t know what we would of done without our ergo!
Mamaroo! Our is in our living room which is open to the kitchen and dinning room so babe hangs out in it while we eat! Thanks to the mamaroo we eat hot meals… Most of the time! š
Purchased these swaddle blankets for my son three years ago when he was born. Now, I am purchasing them from my daughter (born in August). I love how these blankets get softer with every wash and my son does not have a preference as to what print he gets. He loves all of the blankets however, his favorite is the lion blanket. š My son was born in March and was a hot natured baby. We ended up not using any of the plush blankets that were given to him at baby showers. I would only buy these blankets!!!
Love, love, love Aden + Anais everything! š
Love the mamaroo!!
The grey swaddling cloths. Love.
I love the day of the week onesies…almost as much as I love the daily pics of Theo and Beau!
Wow gee!! I have to pick only 1 thing off your fav list!! So many of those are also my fav and for so many reasons!! A&a, ergo, mamaroo, skip hop… And the list goes on!! Definitely adore our a&a though!! So versatile and one of my sons fav as well!! Can’t wait to hand them down to the new baby when it’s born
LOVE the StorkSak bag AND Aden + Anais swaddles!
Love the Burberry Channel Quilted Diaper Bag! Though could never afford it š
The Storksak diaper bag is so chic. Hooded bath robes get me every time though!
Um, well, OBVIOUSLY the Burberry diaper bag! Having my first in August and oh how I would love to tote that thing around town and at the airport!
I love the 4Moms bouncer! I wanted one when my baby was born in April but couldn’t afford it. And I adore the A+A swaddlers! I’m a simple mom š
I love aden + anais. My nieces are obsessed and I love that they are so soft. Literally everything you picked is right up my alley! The baby girl bubble romper and the little boys overalls are to die for. And just to splurge, the 4mom’s bouncer seat in Silver Plush! Great giveaway!
I am following your Facebook page as Manda Healey!

I love the 4Moms MamaRoo! I am expecting my first in October and I can’t wait to try out these recommendations.
Love the Tucker + Tate ‘Raquel’ Romper.
4moms infant tub
Love the onsies. So cute. And off course the Aiden+Anais swaddle. Too many nice things to try .
The Mamaroo seat, I didn’t know about them when I had my first and wish I had.
The Nununu clothes are my favorite!!!
I love the swaddling clothes, they loo so cozy!!
So many things to choose from- great selections! I love the UPPAbaby Vista stroller in the Indigo Blue color. The Storksak 4-piece diaper bag is great too!
I love those Aden + Anais swaddling blankets. I’m expecting my first in November and know I’d put them to good use!!
I love the Danzo baby diaper bag! If only I had an extra $300 lying around š You have such great taste.
I love the 4moms infant tub!
Love the aden and anais blankets and the ergobaby !
The Ergo babycarrier – LIFE SAVER!!!!
Three kids later, I finally figured out the loosing the soother in the bed solution. String a Anais Anais swaddle through it. You need a soother with a little handle (Avent). AnaĆÆs AnaĆÆs have small square bamboo mini blankets that are safe to sleep with and make the best cozy-soother thing ever. We use the big ones too for sun protector and soother system in the car so baby can throw it over the car seat. and get it back, on her own. Yeah. This being said I would love to try the diaper bag, how neat. š
Expecting a baby myself, the Bump Nest Pregnancy pillow looks like heaven. I love all your picks!!
I love the MamaRoo and the Uppababy stroller! WHat a great grouping of things that are new and popular now!
I LOVE my Aden + Anais swaddlers, I used them every day multiple times per day when Tyler was a newborn. Now that he is 9 months I still used them for various things all the time. I also love the Ergo carrier, it’s so soft and it really is comfortable for carrying my little nugget around.
Love the Aden and anias swaddles they are amazing!!! Love all of your picks!
The ergo is awesome!
Aden + Anais swaddlers are my favorite baby thing EVER! I give them to all my expecting friends!
I absolutely love the Hugaboo stroller. We were generously gifted one, but I believe it’s worth every penny!
I love the chewable jewelry, lets me stay stylish while my little one stays happy! Also, the Ergo Baby is a MUST for letting me and the hubs stay mobile while our little one get to snuggle and watch the world.
Having my first child with my husband and we are overwhelmed with the amount of items, quality of it all and making sure we have the best for our little one! This list is great for us:) We LOVE the Bugaboo Stroller and it looks so vintage!
I also love the swaddles, so cute!
Love, love, love the Aiden + Anais swaddle blankets. Always my “go-to” gift for a new baby.

So tough to say! I’m going to go with the Ergo carrier. I use it everyday – subways, shopping, walking the dog…Aden + Anais swaddle cloths are up there, too. So many cherished memories of swaddling my little guy in one of those.
I’m on my third pregnancy and I sleep with four pillows… The bump nest pregnancy pillow looks like heaven! Would love a proper pregnancy pillow! And my lust would be the Stokke Xplory once this baby is here!

(my husband couldn’t wait to get rid of it and did after we brought our daughter home) Now pregnant with #3 i’m pillow-less and sleepless. I can’t wait to get another one! It has been 4 years since my last baby and I am excited to see all the exciting new products on the market. I have heard so much about the 4moms ‘Plush mamaRoo’ Bouncer Seat – sounds amazing!
