I never gave much thought to diaper bags when I first found out I was pregnant. I just thought I'd find something that I didn't hate...after all, what would it be used for? I'm just sticking diapers in it.
So I bought one I didn't hate and used it until Clara was a little over a year old.
For Christmas "Santa" got her a cute pink backpack that has butterflies and is personalized. We figured when she got big enough she could carry it herself. It's also big enough that we can get a couple days worth of clothes in it if she spends the weekend at the grandparents' house.
When I found out I was expecting Sam I just figured I'd use the same diaper bag I had first used with Clara. A couple weeks before I had him I had gone to Shopko to pick up some last minute items. The purse section is immediately across from the front door. Normally I don't even look (I have a serious purse addiction), but I had seen a REALLY cute bag that I thought could double as a diaper bag if I just had to be out really quick.
The most awesome thing about this bag is that it's green. It's made from recycled bottles!
So, what's in my bag?

So, what's in my bag?
- A bunch of diapers for Sam (I've learned to take more than I think I'll need for him even we're gone for a short time).
- A couple diapers for Clara.
- Wipes
- A change of pants for Clara and a couple outfit changes for Sam.
- A receiving blanket and burp rag.
- My nursing cover, wallet, coupons, checkbook, pen, chopstick, and roll of arm & hammer diaper disposable bags, and my mommy hook.
- There's also enough room in there for a small bottle and some snacks for Clara.
Wow I'm surprised you can fit that much in there, that's great!
ReplyDeleteI was amazed at how much it could hold, too!
DeleteYour bag is super cute and can hold a lot!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I've gotten so many compliments on it, and people are especially excited to hear that it's made from recycled material!
