The Perfectly Organized Diaper Bag

As a mom to twin toddlers, I have to carry a lot of stuff. When they were babies, getting out of the house with everything that I needed was daunting to say the least! I found that being organized made our outings possible - I always knew that I had what I needed and I could find things - often with one hand!

I want to share my favorite way to organize my diaper bag - this works for babies or toddlers, and will make heading out with your little one (or little ones!) so much easier.

It starts with a Zip Top Organizing Utility Tote. This is a great all around bag and works perfectly as a diaper bag. It's roomy, has a zipper top to keep things secure, and 7 outside pockets to hold things you need to grab quickly - your wallet, keys, cell phone, a favorite toy, and a water bottle for mom.

The secret to being organized is what's inside! These versatile pouches make it easy to keep everything you need in its place and easy to find.

First, I use this large zipper pouch for diapers, wipes, and a changing pad (I prefer the disposable kind). I can easily fit 4 diapers, a wipes case, and a pad in here.  The inside is wipeable so no worries if it gets dirty.

Next, I love this Bring A Bottle Thermal! It fits a baby bottle (or 2 if you use the 4 oz size), a large sippy cup, or a water bottle. It's thermal lined so it keeps liquids warm or cold. This is one of my must haves.

I also like to add a Mini Zipper Pouch as a first aid/toiletry kit. I have band aids, diaper cream, lip balm and advil for me, tissues, etc. All those little odds and ends that usually get lost at the bottom of your bag can be easily contained!

And everything fits easily in your tote, with room to spare for extra clothes, burp cloths, nursing cover, whatever other essentials you may want to carry!

What's in your bag? I'd love to hear your ideas for keeping your diaper bag under control!
