Fanny pack 2.0

Jupiter Freedom Hands Free Bags When I first saw the hands-free bags from Jupiter Freedom, I figured they were mostly for athletic types and young hipsters, and not for a busy mom of three who's sort of married to her diaper bag. ... [More]

The diaper bag that carries everything including the baby

Kemby Sidekick Diaper Bag While I swear by slings and baby carriers for making my life easy and my hands free, they are not made for moms who like to carry a diaper bag.

A bag that brings your work and your babies together in one

Yes, I'm an avowed bag fanatic, but that doesn't mean I want to carry a second one for my laptop along with my diaper bag. However I had yet to come across a hybrid diaper/laptop bag that I'd actually carry until I discovered the classic Vert Tote from Acme Made. ... [More]
