Cassie’s baby notes

Good stuff.
Honest notes.

What we got, what we tried, and the honest note I’d text a friend—without pretending every baby needs the same things.

Find something

No mystery “must-haves.”

  1. 01 I say whether we used it.
  2. 02 I keep the limitation in.
  3. 03 I link the exact version.

From the notebook

The useful part is the context.

Read every note

02

The baby booties that actually stayed on for us

My short, firsthand take on the exact Goumi booties we had: they stayed on and were my favorite. That's the part I can speak to, so I'm leaving the review right there.

03

The newborn clothes I had an actual opinion about

The Kyte footie felt worth it to me, and the Goumi booties actually stayed on. I'm also sharing the Bonsie link, but I don't have a firsthand review of that one.

These shortcuts group the list around real questions—not an endless aisle of baby gear.

Hi, I’m Cassie

A list built from our life, not a showroom.

This started as the products our family gathered for baby. I’m turning it into the useful answer I wish every recommendation came with: what we actually know, what we don’t, and the exact item someone asked about.

Product needs vary by family. Nothing here is medical or safety advice; follow current manufacturer and pediatric guidance.
