What's in my diaper bag?

Now for the "What's In My Diaper Bag?" - Hospital Edition.  I have packed and repacked this bag about 100 times before I was finally satisfied with how it ended up.  I have the Skip Hop Grand Central Bag, I got it at Target back in April when it was on super duper clearance for $65 (I think), now it's back up to $90.  I wanted something that could double as a purse, without looking like a diaper bag.  First I'll break it down by compartments and sections, then by what's actually in the bag.



Currently I have nothing in here, but will end up adding tissue/booger wipes and hand sanitizer for the fall.




1. Gerber diapers (2) - to use for spit-up and all the other fun gunk that babies create.
2. Huggies diapers container
3. Outfits and socks (3) - see below for bigger picture
4. Receiving blankets (2) & Wubbanub Pacifier
5. Pacifier Wipes
6. Comb, Butt Cream, Pacifiers
7. Large Knit Receiving blanket
1. Carter's Little Man Outfit (0-3 Months; I picked this one)
2. Carter's Raccoon Sleeper (0-3 Months; Lennon picked this out)
3. Skull & Crossbones Onesie and Sweatpants from Target (Newborn; Daddy picked this one)
And socks of course... which HOLY HELL it took me almost the past 2 months to find some plain jane white socks for little boys.  Good grief.


Now since this is the hospital bag, I left out diapers.  I plan on stockpiling those babies when we leave the hospital when Maddox is born.  That and all the wipes, blankets, and booger suckers I can manage to stuff in this bag ;)

About my haitus

So I haven't blogged much since December, when we had the blighted ovum and D&C situation going on, so I wanted to update.

After Christmas, Adrian and I moved in together with Lennon.  We live in a small two-bedroom apartment not far from where I'm currently working, which is great since we share my car at the moment.  They drop me off and pick me up from work, it works for us for now.

In February, the day before Adrian's 28th birthday, we found out we were expecting again.  I had been feeling nauseous and exhausted and had sore boobs from the end of January/beginning of February but chalked them up to finally getting my period after the D&C.  Two pregnancy tests later confirmed that I was in fact pregnant.  I was shocked, as was Adrian, but we were happy and accepted this welcome change in our lives.



I'm due in October, either the 17th or the 21st (Lennon's birthday) depending on which doctor at my OB office you talk to.  That makes me 16 weeks 5 days or 16 weeks 1 day right now.  I'm still nauseous, still exhausted (what happened to the energy you're supposed to get in the second trimester, huh?!) and in 16 days we will find out if we're having a boy or a girl.
