Shopping list for newborn baby

Having baby gabo is stressful enough without having to worry about what to buy in preparation for his arrival. As first time mom, I couldn't tell the difference between a necessity and a convenience item. I go into the baby section of a store and I just go gaga. I couldn't restrain myself from putting stuff on the cart, all those cute patterns and prints doesn't help either. Good thing J is always with me, he does all the restraining.

So to help us keep track with the shopping, we came up with this list (which is just a compilation of checklists we found online).
