My new diaper bag!



You would think with 5 kids, that I would have found the perfect diaper bag years ago, but I didn't find what I wanted until just now. C'est la vie!

I went to If Only, a little gift shop in downtown Fairbanks - the day I had a babysitter. This is not a store that you would take a gaggle of kids into. It would be a disastrous - and very expensive trip! So, I went there in hopes of finding some Christmas presents (which I did), but I also ended up finding gifts for myself!!

Recently, everything turquoise and brown keeps jumping out at me. It's a bit bright, but I like it! The bag zips at the top, which is very important! It has pockets all along the inside, and it is big enough to fit loads of diapers, wipes, extra clothes, and the kitchen sink! I also got a matching wallet/purse that I can wear and a zippered make-up pouch. It is made by Vera Bradley - they have a wonderful website with some things on sale right now if you want to check it out. I now have everything I need wherever I go and I love that. I will be adding to my collection in the future with a matching sunglasses case and coin purse. I feel so hip :0)

YUM! Turquoise & brown!!! You have great taste, Jennifer :)

We're headed to Hood. We moved here from Bliss. LOL. Apparently, God feels we have something to learn in Texas. How long do you have in Alaska? Say you'll come join us ;)

Tourquoise and brown are my favorite colors and I have bought quite a few things in those colors in the last couple of years. Even our Christmas decoration are tourquoise and brown!

I love the diaper bag, I wish they had something this stylish when my kids were little. I got a Vera Bradley purse for my birthday, too. :)
