that's one great bag

Trader Joe's have the best insulated and reusable bags. They are big, keep things cold and are great for everything. I don't even use it for grocery shopping, I fill mine up anytime we are going somewhere away from home that requires me to take food for the kids. If you looked inside mine you would find a few jars of baby food, baby spoons, formula, bottles, baby snacks, goldfish for Brody, bibs and snacks for me. My mom saw me use it so much she wanted one, so I picked her up one for a mere $1.99. I know it will be perfect for summer too!

Petunia Pickle Bottom

I get compliments on my Petunia Pickle Bottom clutch every where I go. It usually goes something like this,

them: "Hey, I love your purse."
me: "It's actually my diaper bag."
them: "No way."
me: "No really, here's the changing pad."

Looking for a diaper bag for baby #2 was easy, because I knew that I didn't want the gigantic baby bag like I had for Brody. I loved my x-large Juicy diaper bag, but it actually hurt my shoulder because I stuffed so much stuff in there. I do think that every first-time mom should have a big bag, just for peace of mind. However, I knew this time I would travel light. Just a few diapers, some wipes and maybe an extra onesie. Everything else can be in the car or the bottom of the stroller. So I bought it and I love. I take it everywhere, even if I don't have the kids. And I think I only paid like $65 for it. Best part, I never get that "I miss having a grown up purse" that I use to have with Brody. Go here to check it out, and notice that they now have like 15 patterns!
