This is where I get all mom on you: Breast Pump Bags (part 2)

This is part two of "Breast Pump Bags" (you can read part one here).

So after carrying the beauty called Lizzy for about a week.  I decided to switch to the other bag, Kelly.

It is so funny to me how much one little bag can have an impact on my life.  Number one, bags make me happy.  I can't explain why, it's just one of those things.  Number 2, they are functional and we all need function in our lives.  Enough with my crazy thought process and on to my thoughts about the bag.

Quick recap of my needs in a bag as a working mom:

• Must be able to carry pump, accessories, computer and possibly a lunch
• Must sit well against my body
• Easy to clean/wipe
• Can be used after I'm done torturing myself for approximately a year and no longer use it specifically as a pump bag
• Looks nice

Hello Kelly.  You sure are pretty

This is where I get all mom on you: Breast Pump Bags

Last night as I proceeded to search for a new bag (yes I am becoming a bag lady... but not that kind), it occurred to me that if there are any moms out there who are thinking about whether they should spend a few dollars on some "mommy conveniences", here are some of the ones that I bought or want to buy.

At this point in my life, I've been through kid one and now, I'm over the "make it work" stage and want things to work for me.  Maybe I'm getting old maybe I'm running out of space in my Yukon.  Either way, you get my unsolicited opinions (#ThanksForReading).

This is when I get all mom on you: Going back to work

This is going to be the chapter in my life when so many of my blog posts are going to be all mommy related.  That's your only warning.  If that's not your thing, cool.  If it is your thing, cool.  I appreciate this space and will be getting into the whole mommy whirlwind that my life has become recently.

I recently have gone back to work at my office job.  It's obvious that although I was not working at the kind of job that provides me with cash in the bank and a W-2 that I was extremely busy working.  It's called being a mom.

Silly girl

I'm not really sure what I expected the second time around but let me tell you, I am a silly girl.  All that extra time I had with my daughter has vanished.  Poof!  Like a magic act, except no one is going to magically bring it back.

Happy birthday darling daughter!

I am so happy and proud to say, "happy birthday!" to my daughter.  I am such a proud mother.  In fifteen years I hope to be able to say the same thing and I'm going to hedge my bets and say that I will be.  I have been privileged to be the mother of a smart, beautiful and spunky little girl.  If course I'm biased and think that she is more than the bees knees, but as I've said before, this is my little space on the internet where I get to say what I want.  I fully expect that other parents feel the same way about their little ones, so if I were to read this on some one else's blog, I would think that they are speaking the truth of their heart, just as I am.
