what’s in my purse

I’m a random reader of blogs.  I might spend an evening reading all kinds of stuff and then not do it for a month.  But I’m stealing the “what’s in my purse” idea from this blog that I occasionally read because I love to know what other peeps have in their purses (I don’t know why, just like I like to see what other people’s houses are like…).  And I thought it was funny that every time someone does this purse-thing, they never have “mom” stuff like I do.  So here we go…

Purple Big Buddha Purse
Normally out of my price range, I bought this bad boy during a moment of weakness this summer while Chris was at work and couldn’t tell me no.  And I took the price tag off as soon as I got home so he couldn’t make me return it.

Elliott’s Stuff
Diaper, wipes, little kitty, toy dinosaur, and emergency pacifier for major meltdowns only.  Elliott’s meltdowns, not mine.

Small Bags!!
I’m a sucker for a make-up bag, carryall bag, or any kind of bag in general.  The red owl bag holds necessities such as tampons, a condom (?), and a penis pencil topper (again, ??).  Oh, and mints.
The black and white striped bag is a leftover from when Sarah Jessica Parker had her affordable clothing line, Bitten, at Steven and Barry’s.  I’m not sure why I carry it, it just has pens, chapstick, and trash in it, but I also don’t feel the need to get rid of it. 🙂

Flower Wallet
The black flower wallet was a purchase this summer in Gaitlinburg on a family vacation.  It doesn’t hold as much stuff as I would like, but I thought I needed to downsize and at the time it seemed perfect.  I’m currently on the lookout for a new, giant wallet as small is not really in my vocabulary (except above).

There you have it, the inside of my purse.  The only things missing (since I’m at home) are my keys, my cell phone, and my digital camera.  And it’s still heavy, even with not a lot of stuff in it.  I blame Elliott.
