Diaper Bag Love

Can you be in love with a diaper bag? Well, I am! I always said that if we had another baby I was going to get a Petunia Pickle Bottom diaper bag. Once the time came I was a little hesitant because the diaper bag I still use on occasion for Jonas is still in good shape, and Petunia Pickle Bottom bags are just so expensive!

I started shopping around and found the Sashay Satchel in Blissful Buttercup and felt the strong desire to get it! But it sells for $119 everywhere, no exceptions. Even though we haven't made a single big purchase for this baby (haven't needed to), could I really splurge on this bag?

I did it. I splurged. Sort of. I decided to check eBay one day and found a lady who was selling this very diaper bag because she had received two as gifts! I put the auction on my watch list and 10 minutes before it was scheduled to end I put in a bid $1 higher than the highest and WON! (Sorry to the other two eBayers who had been bidding back and forth for days, I just know how to win I guess). So, I ended up getting the back for $50 below retail! Still a little pricey, but happy birthday to me I guess.

I allowed myself to use it once when it came in, but now it's in the closet waiting for the new babe's arrival (in about 6 weeks). I think I looked pretty good walking around with my diaper bag. :) It functioned very well too. I'll have to give a more detailed review once it's stuffed full of actual baby stuff.

Here's my bag!



It can be used as a backpack too, but I think it's much cuter carried over the shoulder!
