We’ve basically been living out of our diaper bag these days! Here’s what’s in there:

1) Marc by Marc Jacobs Preppy Nylon Eliz-A-Baby Diaper Bag – When shopping for a diaper bag, I wanted something that was really light; that way when I filled it up it wouldn’t completely weigh me down. This one is awesome and fits everything and anything I could try to pack in it. I even used it as a carry-on when we went on vacation last month, and it worked like a charm.

2) Honest Diapers & Travel Wipes – I keep at least 8 diapers and 2 packages of wipes in the diaper bag at all times. I’ve never been caught without yet.

3) Honest Hand Sanitizer Gel – After a diaper change, before a feeding, after we’ve walked the dog – I’ve become an avid hand sanitizer user since Baby M was born. I like the Honest brand which uses no harsh chemicals and doesn’t feel as drying.

4) Zippered Pouch – For my mom things: keys, wallet, phone, lip gloss. I love these cheeky Kate Spade designs!

5) Clean Outfit: Cardigan, Onesie, Pants & Socks – I love these onesies from Target and these comfy leggings from Gap.  This cardigan is great to throw on her if it gets cold.

6) Aden & Anais Blanket – I use this as a light blanket, a carseat cover, emergency spit-up catcher, nursing cover – basically anything you can think of! I always have at least one with us, if not two.

7) Stroller Blanket – In case it gets chilly, or if we decide to make a stop at the park.

8) Extra Pacifiers – We’re still using the Mam pacifier brand. I always make sure there’s an extra in the diaper bag – I would not want to get stuck in traffic without one!

9) Ziploc Baggies – I throw at least 5 of the freezer-sized baggies in our diaper bag in the event of a blowout. That way her soiled clothes are contained and I can throw them right in the wash when we get home.

10) Hungry Caterpillar Teething Rattle – This is one of Baby M’s favorites, as she can easily grab ahold and get the teething part in her mouth. It also jingles and crinkles – bonus!

11) Sophie the Giraffe – Can’t leave home without Sophie!

12) Camelbak Water Bottle – Nursing makes me so thirsty, so I carry my water bottle with me everywhere we go. I probably drink at least 3 of these a day.
