I quit carrying a purse and a diaper bag. Instead, I insert my wallet and keys, along with diapers, wipes and other toddler necessities, into a cute tote. It’s light and stylish — and there’s even room for something new when I’m shopping!

In the summer, I fill a sturdy cotton mesh bag with diapers, clothing and other baby supplies. The bag doubles as a tote for carrying home my kids’ treasures from the beach, birthday parties or other outings.

Instead of lugging around a large diaper bag, I carry a small bag for essentials (like diapers) and then keep a "mom bag" in my car at all times. The "mom bag" contains a change of clothes for my son, as well as extra diapers, wipes, toys, snacks, a cup and a blanket.
