What you need Wednesday - Petunia Pickle Bottom

Better late than never... This is the "diaper bag" that I fell in love with when baby E was on her way.  I saw it first in Pottery Barn Kids and it spoke to me :)  "You don't have to run around with a bag that screams I"M A MOM!"  People pick up on that already - this bag said - "I am fabulous and you will love me," and I have everyday since.

The front of the bag hides a built in changing pad which means when you have baby in one hand and a changing table in front of you it's a no brainer.  Plus, the outside is wipe able so you can clean it up well after it's been tossed around.

She makes all different types and colors and they are currently on sale at Layla Grace - click here Petunia Pickle Bottom sale

We also have the clutch for all those times you don't want to carry the whole bag!

Happy Shopping!
 

What you need Wednesday - Taggie Blankets

Most people have seen these nowadays they seem to be all over the place.

A sweet friend of ours made a taggie blanket for baby E and she LOVES it!  It goes with us everywhere.  The cool thing about these is all of the different textures on the blanket and in the ribbons along the outsides, and they come in really cool patterns.

Here are a few that I found on etsy.com from Little Miss Monkeys.

For the little man or lady in your life these blankets sell for $11.50 plus shipping and handling.  

I have been loving buying homemade things for E.  They are unique and different, not to mention we're helping people working from home :)  I wish I have the creativity these people have.

Thanks Megs for our blanket!

Until next time - Jenna

What you need Wednesday

Over the last few months of having Baby E people have been approaching me about what I have found useful in the world of baby products and what is a waste of time and money.  I remember registering for things and thinking.... where do you even begin?  I had never had a baby and knew nothing of what the day to day would bring us.

So in light of that question I thought I'd start a "what you need" series.  I'll give tips of what I've found useful and what products Baby E loves.  We would also love to know what you have found useful!

This is one of the wet bags we have for the diaper bag c/o Lavender Strings  I use it to put all the dirty diapers in when we are out on the town, they are a cloth exterior with a waterproof plastic lining.

They are all handmade and come in all different fun colors - bonus they are machine washable and to dry turn them inside out.

I have a couple for Baby E because as some of you know with babies you are always misplacing things!  I have even used one as a makeup bag :)  This week Lavender Strings is running a coupon deal!

Thanks Ali (owner of Lavender Strings) for being so creating and such a good Auntie to Baby E!
