For baby:
- 3 diapers
- Wipes
- A laminate cloth to change his diaper on (those darn changing tables never have the table liners refilled)
- 2 burp cloths (one is actually usually a small swaddle blanket that never fit my bruiser of a baby)
- A onesie
- A hat
- Sunglasses
- A soft toy (usually the favorite, "Jenna-bear")
- At least a couple of toys that can be chewed on
- A board book
- A bottle
- back-up formula
- A baby food pouch
- A spoon
- 3 pacifiers
- Pacifier/teether wipes
- Hand and face wipes
- a bib
For mama:
- Hand sanitizer
- The normal purse essentials: Wallet, keys, cell phone
- A book (for when the baby falls asleep in the car and I don't want to wake him up)
- A snack
- Chocolate (because you never know when a grocery store or rush hour meltdown is going to drive you to desperation)
- Water bottle (whether for myself or refilling the bottle)
- Lotion (to cover the smell of spit-up)
- Kleenex
- Lady supplies
- Chapstick
- Lipstick
- Coupons for formula and diapers (the only ones I ever use... but put some of those in front of me and I'll snatch them right up).
This doesn't fit in the good old diaper bag, but I also tend to bring a blanket with me everywhere.
What can't you live without?
