Here’s what’s in my purse! I have 5 kids, and one still in diapers so as hard as I am trying to ditch the diaper bag, my purse STILL ends up the hapless victim of the kids’ stuff!
The Purse: Emma Fox. The lining of this bag SOLD me. Adorable!
The STUFF:
- My B&N Nook. I can read a couple of pages of my latest book while I’m waiting to pick up a child(ren), or killing time during one of their lessons.
- Panda Bear. No clue whose this is or how it got here.
- Cheap-o plastic organizer for coupons: restaurant and retail.
- Coupons that somehow didn’t make it into my organizer.
- Baby wipes (I will carry these to my death!)
- Naproxen – for all my kid-inspired headaches
- Misc. mail and the SpongeBob checkbook. Paying bills should be fun, no?
- George Costanza-like wallet. This baby cost me less than $20 at Target and it is awesome. It holds EVERYTHING. Sure it weighs a ton and is as fat as a Subway sandwich, but at least I don’t have to shove it in my back pocket ;)
- Three lip glosses: COBigelow Mentha Lip Tint #1642 from B&BW, Buxom Lips by Bare Escentuals, and CoverGirl Wet Slicks AmazeMint #620. I think I have a thing for minty lips!
- Tampons
- Handy little rubber antibacterial hand gel holder with gel (Cup Cakes Coconut Cream) from B&BW. Love!!
- Emergency binky – critical.
- Trumpet shaped silly band.
- Skin cologne spray. This stuff is the kissin’ cousin to Loves Baby Soft! I’ve been wearing it since high school. I can’t help it – no matter what spendy perfume I buy, I always come back to Skin. And I get LOTS of compliments on my $13 smell!
- A green crayon
Not pictured:
- The 500 crumbs of mixed origin that were in the bottom of my bag.
- My BlackBerry – aka: My Siamese Twin
