Well, color me surprised! My bag was almost empty!
One oversized sweatshirt, and one sweatshirt that is mysteriously missing it's pants. It is 24 mos, so was taken out. One pair of socks instead of the typical two or three. Recently outgrown, so replaced with a pair of larger socks. Four diapers. Two more added. I need to try on her training underwear and plastic pants to be sure they still fit. I can then add a pair of each for back up. Two packs of wipes. One goes in the outside pocket for wiping hands. Or nose. I will add a pack of tissues in there too... as soon as I figure out how they got out of there. One small bottle of hand sanitizer. One bottle of infant Motrin ( The kind that is actually marked 6 to 23 months). I will be leaving it in there until I remember to buy replacement. Sunglasses, and enough powdered milk for 8 oz. Did you know that you can get a container that holds powdered formula in three compartments? The milk is old, so will be thrown away. Considering her age, I don't think I need milk in there anymore. One outlet cover. Did you know that duct tape works well for childproofing? At a friends house, it can cover outlets and close cabinets.
One heavy receiving blanket.
I don't know what happened to the snacks or the empty cup I usually keep in there. When we eat out, there always seems to be plenty of extra of whatever she's drinking. A toddler safe empty cup comes in handy! Either a sippy cup or an 8 ounce sports bottle.
Her books are mysteriously missing as well. Since it is that time of year, I will be adding hat and gloves too. I try to add a pair of sneakers, but will have to settle for whatever I can find upstairs. Dress shoes will work regardless of the temperature if her sneakers or snow boots are wet.
So, now I know that while the bag was "okay", it certainly did not contain what I thought it did!

Love them all, but this one is just too cute.

Agreed!!

I don't think I have ever known the true purpose of the "burst" feature of a camera. I use it now and then, but the leaves were the first time that I was sooooo glad to have it!!

and such awesome pictures too

Glad it is working for you and your kids.
Just with all of your other medical ailments that you suffer from I worry about YOU!!

My second pregnancy was triplets. I lost 2 of them and was very lucky to have kept the third.
I was still breast feeding the second child when pregnant with the third but stopped due to strong uterine contractions when ever she fed, and I did not want to loose the pregnancy.

I go through my diaper bag from time to time to take inventory. There are always snacks in there. That is funny though!
I only recently tossed some baby food that has been in there for at least a year. I'm pretty sure I got rid of the toddler flatware as well. The bib might still be in there.

Apparently, I will be going through it today! It's only been about two months since I last checked, but I may not have cold-weather clothes in there.
Cold weather: Those of us in the north east consider cold-weather anything below 55 during the day. Except for Liz who thinks that cold is anything below 95.

but I'm always cold

Lol

Thank you!
You are allowed to be cold. Like today. It's gorgeous. Nice for leathers. Not nice trying to nap without sweats and thick socks plus a blanket.

What an amazing story of strength! I had two of mine at home. My labors tend to be so fast that if I were to go into labor and then try to get to the hospital i would give birth in the vehicle. I nursed princess until she just turned two in August. My friend has a jersey cow with certified A2A2 milk, and since she skims the cream to make mozzarella cheese, Princess gets to drink all the fresh unpasteurized cream she wants. She used to love peas and other veggies, but lately she refuses veggies, but she will eat most dairy, meat, and bread, and fruits. I remember eating tons of liver and onions and black strap molasses during the last two pregnancy. Had a wonderful midwife who helped me with my pregnancy anemia. The DH is actually a very tall, lean man, but the funny thing about princess is when she was born she was over 9 lbs. She didn't loose weight or anything, but then, she just didn't grow fast at all.
