I was re-packing my diaper bag this morning, and I started thinking about what a blessing it has been lately to have what I need in there for unexpected occasions…
For instance, we got to church and found out that it was our co-teacher’s birthday. We decided to go out to lunch with her. I prayed that I’d remembered to re pack the baby food… and I had! Yeah!!!!
So, items that a mom with a 3-year-old and a 10 month old should have in her diaper bag at all times:
Baby food for one lunch or dinner out
Spoon for baby food (Boon spoons are awesome!!!)
Bib
Diapers
Wipes
Change of underwear and pants for 3-year-old
Plastic produce bag (for any kind of accident)
Change of clothes for baby
A couple of small cars or other toys
Granola bar (for Mom or toddler)
A plastic bag full of Cheerios
Wallet
Cell phone
Small camera (in its own compartment where it will NEVER come into contact with water)
Small makeup pouch filled with sundry essentials, feminine products, hand sanitizer, kleenex
Sunscreen stick
And for the car…. always have a plastic ball and a plastic shovel available for any emergency playground digging that must be done. Sun hats for both boys also always stay in the car…
Anything that you would add?

I think you included everything I carry around in the diaper bag/backpack...I also always have a roll of paper towels(for impromptu picnics)and some bottled water in the car.
Ooh, granola bar for mom! Good idea. Ha, seems the first thing I'd forget is something for ME. Well, my bag does has antibacterial wipes for me, but that's probably because I'm into supporting LifeLogic. Believe me, my bag is all about baby.
