Product Review - Our Favorite Diaper Bag, the Petunia Picklebottom City Caryall

I really spent quite a bit of time looking for the perfect diaper bag. I knew I would be nursing for at least the first 6 months and I knew we would be using cloth diapers. This said, we needed quite a bit of room. Not to mention I'm a large purse carrying girl and we have 3 small children. We needed a family size diaper bag and I'm a bit of a germ-aphobe so my heart was set on the Petunia Picklebottom City Caryall. I fell in love with the roominess, the pockets to help with organization, and absolutely cannot live without the exterior changing pad! The changing pad is removable for washing (and to remove some bulkiness once baby is older) and I've never had that awkward moment where I felt like setting baby Breccan down on a dirty changing table while I dug around searching for the changing pad.

I simply set our PBB on the changing table and unfold the pad and then place baby Breccan right on the pad and I have everything I need right at the perfect height!Other features include handle options. There are two shorter handles and they are VERY sturdy. In addition, there is an adjustable strap you can use as a shoulder or messenger style. That longer strap quickly comes off and can be replaced with two very short straps suitable for attaching to a shopping cart or stroller handle. No more messing around digging under your groceries to find the diaper bag full of toys and treats! I'm included a bunch of pictures to give you a better idea of what the PBB looks like. These aren't staged very well and were taken quickly to help answer questions from another mother in search of a cloth diaper friendly bag.

You Can Speak Your Mind, But Not On My Time?

Today's post title is inspired by the fabulous song that is likely going through your head right now "I still belong, don't get me wrong, you can speak your mind but not on my time...you can live your life, but this is my life..."etc... The topic however is inspired by a dear friend who recently said to me "why is it so hard for people to be real and have a conversation about things they disagree with?" I've been thinking about that queestion and the conversation that it inspired - what she was really talking about is feedback. Why is it so difficult to tell someone that you'd like them to do something differently? We beat around the bush, and sometimes never say what's on our mind. Isn't this really the rooot cause of relationship problems? The cause of dating mis-haps, family arguements, and the underlying issue that often results in anger and fighting? Before you answer, let me toss out some scenarios: 1) You're dating someone ...

Natural Remedies for Depression ?

Have you had those moments when you weren't feeling quite like yourself? Those negative thoughts were creeping in? clouding your judgment? making every day chores seem like amazing feats of heroism? If you've never felt like that - good for you! I on the other hand struggle with life's ups and downs. From depression during my divorce to post-partum depression, etc... I tend to be a very happy and optimistic person, but the flip side of that coin brings those days when staying in bed is more alluring than hopping in the shower and going through the motions of the day. There are some fabulous medications on the market today, and seeking the help of a healthcare professional is always a great idea. Sometimes I'm not feeling depressed, but I fear I'm headed there. I don't particularly care for some of the side effects of medications I have been on in the past, and a natural remedy can sometimes give me just the kick in the pants that I need to 'get happy...
