I already have this diaperbag. Brian works with a gal that is also a sales rep for this company: JU JU BE diaper bags. When she found out we were having twins she sent a catalog home with Brian and had me pick out any diaper bag. I was told or maybe I read somewhere that with twins I would need "a very large" diaper bag. This was the biggest in the catalog and though I wasn't in love with the print I picked it because it wasn't as feminine as the print I really wanted. I am very very thankful for this diaper bag because it was FREE. It usually retails for $180! So I am very very thankful. We use it to take to the baby sitters everyday however it is too bulky and awkward to carry if I was to take it out for everyday use or shopping or something like that. I bought another diaper bag that is actually a carryon by Mag bag. It is very cute but also difficult and awkward to carry when you have a carseat on each arm. So I was looking at another twin mom's blog and she had suggested a back pack so I was looking through JU JU BE's website and found this lovely diaper bag that I am coveting at this very moment. I really like this diaper bag. Isn't it cute?
I feel that I MUST have this diaper bag. She can be worn as a back pack or the center strap can be made longer and you can carry it on your shoulder and it is like a purse. You should check out their website http://www.ju-ju-be.com/our_products.asp?prodid=packabe and watch the video of all of the amazing things you can do with this bag. Anyway. So I was telling the husband that I really would like this diaper bag... maybe for my birthday. I feel it would be handy and since the girls are getting bigger I could carry it and both carseat carriers comfortably and it would be fabulous. The husband then proceeds to tell me that "NO"- I do not need this diaper bag because I already have two diaper bags and we do not need more "junk" in our house etc etc...( we have decided to declutter and get rid of lots of stuff because our basement is overflowing with junk" He tells me that it is silly of me to want something that I already have and that is why we have so much stuff is because I always buy silly things that I already have two of! BOO!!!! I just happen to love bags and purses (Coach is my fav) anyway... I don't smoke I don't do drugs, I don't buy a lot of clothes or anything anymore.... my vice is bags and purses because everyone has their "thing" that they like. Bags and purses are my thing... some women enjoy purses and shoes, some women like perfume some women like expensive restaurants or jewelry..mine just happens to be bags and purses. So I am crushed that he told me I could not have this fabulous bag...but I honestly think that I will eventually buy it for myself. I will probably not even ask for anything for my birthday now because there is nothing I want. Clothes are not fun anymore because I am not in my normal size yet and shoes...well my feet also grew while I was prego so this is my vice.... I know it isn't good to go against the husband but in my defense he went out and bought an expensive flat screen tv when we had a regular tv that was just fine so I think I can justify a diaperbag that is way way cheaper than a tv. That is my rant... What is your "thing"? Is it shoes, clothes, purses, food, jewelry... do tell.

Hey! Your girls are so stinkin' cute! Both of our sets are fraternal, and I don't mind at all when people ask...I'm sure you get that question all the time too!
