From the time your little one makes their big debut, your number one goal is to keep them content. From late night feedings to playing peek-a-boo, their happiness is the most important thing in your world.  As your itty bitty's little mind grows and develops, there's no better way to keep them intrigued and entertained than through some quality reading time, ensuring that the necessity of stimulating their mental growth and development is covered. Itty Bitty Bella has just the collection of story time supplies that every parent seeks for their child, and we're happy to share a few of our favorites with you.

The Mommy Hugs and Daddy Kisses books feature the sweet scenes of mommy and daddy animals with their babies. The hard construction is perfect for the enjoyment of your tiniest tots, and the bright colors will have even infants stimulated while they listen to you read.

Mommy Loves celebrates the unique and special ways that moms show their babies love. Also featuring illustrations of various animals and a hard cover construction, this book is the perfect addition to your reading collection.

A Beautiful Baby Registry

Perfectly Practical

It seems that people everywhere share the love of all things vintage these days. The character of old-fashioned style is one that is hard to replicate, one that makes a statement as it stands outside the realms of the ordinary. In furniture, in clothing, in home decor- vintage flair is alive, so it should come as no surprise that it has even seeped into the realm of itty bitties. 

How do you choose names for your little one?

There was a time when only the most modern names would be considered when anticipating the arrival of a bouncing babe, but now it seems the tables have turned and we've gone back in time. While the cute, of-the-moment names are still out there, many moms and dads are choosing to go the old fashioned route when it comes to picking the perfect name for their little one. 

If the sound of vintage perks your interest, allow us to share with you a few of our favorite throw-back baby names...

For a girl: Ada, Clara, Hazel, Jane, Mae, Olivia, Pearl, Rose, and Stella. These names have made quite the comeback, and in a super stylish way!

For a boy: Benson, Eli, Finn, Griffin, Hayes, Hudson, Henry, Lane, Monroe, Murray, Owen, Porter and Wylie. We can just picture a little gentleman at the sound of these!

These are just a few of the tons of classic names out there. We know it can be overwhelming to choose a name before or at the moment you meet your sweet little one, but hopefully this list of vintage-inspired titles will provide some inspiration. Whatever you do, don't rush into it- this is what your prince or princess will be called for the rest of their life, after all!
