Instead of doing two "two for tuesday" posts, I am going to do one big "favorite thing" post.
I bumped into Chelsea, one of my best friends from high school, the other day. She is prego with her first baby, due the first part of July, and she said she wanted to know all of the things I thought she needed.

This vibrating/bouncing chair was great when Indie was younger, she would hang out in it all the time and she slept well in it too.
Positioner
This little contraption put my mind at ease every night knowing that she couldn't roll around.

Binki
We tried and tried for Indie to take any other bink besides this one but she insisted on the soothie. I have linked to a page with a variety, they are all good and they all say they are safe for babies teeth so just go with what you think is cute.
Diaper Champ
This really is a champ, the best part is you can use a normal garbage bag so you don't have to buy the fancy refill kits. It comes in blue too.

Bumbo
This was nice for while I was cooking. I would set her in it on the counter and she would just chill.

Car Seat
We have loved our car seat and the best part is that there is a base that buckles in so all I have to do is click her seat in and out.

Jumper
Ind has been jumping since she came out of the womb. She loves this thing and so do we. The one we have has a little tray in front of it so we can put toys on it for her to play with.

Changing Table
We have loved having a changing table. It is nice to not have to bend over or sit on the floor to do it.

Bjorn
Can't live without this bird. It is great for everything: vacuuming, dishes, mowing the lawn etc. It is a lifesaver.

We don't have a sling but after reading this blog I am dying to get one the next time around.
Backpack
Lowell and Mindy hooked us up with the back pack pictured below and we love it. It is great for hiking and Tony uses it a lot when mowing the lawn. Eventually we want to get one like the one pictured above because it has a shade and area to pack other stuff. Maybe before we backpack through Europe...one day.

High Chair
We freaking love this high chair. It can roll so with our wood floors I can put Ind in it and push it all around the house.
It leans back so if she falls asleep she can stay in it.

Hook On High Chair
We don't have one of these but our moms do and Ind uses it while at "Grandma's House." They are nice because they are so compact, you can take them anywhere.

We love this monitor because it lights up when she cries so we don't have to turn the volume up so high that it blows us out of the water.
Chels, I hope this helps.
Does anyone have anything to add to "the list?"

I second all of yours and Jessie's must-haves, and add to it a breast pump (preferably a Medela). They are pricey but worth every penny.
How about a REALLY WONDERFUL GRANDMA?
How did I ever raise my kids without all this "stuff?"
I can't believe how Indie has grown. She was so teeny tiny in all those photos.
Congratulations Cassie!!
Woops...Congratulations Chelsea!
Good grief...you have everything and anything. Love the bumbo and the sling. I might invest in them for the little one on the way.
