what's in my diaper bag?

ok, y'all know me.  i love bags.  no one should be surprised by this.  as such, i knew when i was pregnant with charlotte that i had to find the perfect diaper bag.  i was blessed to be given an awesome diaper bag with charlotte's name and an owl embroidered on it by my bff kathryn, but when charlotte got older and needed more stuff, it ran out of room :/.  i went through...i have no idea how many bags.  i loved them all for different reasons but couldn't find the one bag that had it all.

until...

someone at skip*hop must have been following me around on my search, because they designed a bag that finally met my needs and looked awesome doing it.

this is the skip*hop grand central diaper bag in cinnamon.  it has about a billion pockets (no, not really, but i'm not sure how many) and holds everything i carry easily.  i'm a serious overpacker and this bag can handle it.  i love it.  it's made from an easy to clean material (just wipes off!  awesome!) and the straps have a nice drop length.  the bottle pockets on either side are insulated and are large enough to hold two bottles in each.

the bag has three compartments.  the two outer have snaps that hold them closed, and the middle one has a zipper.  it also has two zip pockets on the front and a slip pocket in the back.  i use the front compartment for my things, the middle for diapering supplies and toys, and the back for food/snacks.

so, what exactly am i carrying around these days?

in the front two pockets, i keep things i need to get to easily.  in the top pocket, i keep clorox wipes and pacifier wipes.  in the bottom, a burp cloth and a travel sprayer of lysol.  i usually keep a bib in there too, but i had to use it.  

 the insulated pockets on the sides are huge.  in one, i keep two of charlotte's bottles.  we use the playtex drop-in nursers, and i fill them with 6 oz. of water before going out.  in the other pocket, i keep her sippy (water with a splash of juice) and the innobaby pack and smart filled with sweet potato puffs from happy baby and gerber strawberry yogurt melts.

 first compartment: neutrogena shine control pressed rice powder, my keys, nyx mega shine lip gloss in golden pink, a pen, arrisse lipstick in wink, lypsyl beeswax lip balm, advil, nivea creme, and my wallet.
