Diaper Bag

When pregnant with Y you could say I was polka dot obsessed, it wouldn't be an overstatement in the least.  I fell head-over-heels in love with the Deco pattern by Graco and bought almost every item they sold in the print.  The exception was the bouncer chair, because I wanted the Fisher-Price Rainforest chair instead, and the high chair (had they made a space-saver version I definitely would have bought it)!  They also made and sold a diaper bag with the print and so of course that was the diaper bag that I wanted.  I loved the print but I must admit it was small, fortunately with only one kid I could make due with it.  Several months after Y was born they came out with a larger diaper bag in the same print and I made sure to tell B that whenever we had our next kid we were buying the larger version.  Well it turns out when you put 3 years between your kids the things you purchased/wanted with one kid may no longer be available when another kid comes along, and so it wasn't meant to be for me to have that bag.

I suppose it's just as well though because, though I haven't fully outgrown my love of polka dots, it has lessened to some degree.  I found myself attracted to black and white prints this pregnancy, mainly damask and so I set out to find a black and white damask diaper bag.  Well I didn't exactly find anything that I loved or even liked that much in that exact print and color scheme.  I did however find a bag that I instantly fell in love with and decided I had to have it.  It's made by JJ Cole and the print is named Black Magnolia.  I was so excited the day that it arrived in the mail and I am anxiously awaiting the ability to put all of it's pockets and attachments to use.
