No matter how much you stick to a routine or (loose) schedule at home, going out can totally throw you off - anything can happen when kids are involved! 

It may sound counterintuitive, but being prepared with the RIGHT tools is an important part of minimalish living. Owning less and being more intentional ensures that you have things that add value to you and your family's life. Sometimes it's actually easier to have a few *extra* things you could need, especially when you're out with the little ones!

I carry my stocked backpack. Maybe you're extremely minimalist and only throw a diaper in your purse - but, how many times do you *wish* you had...

  • A disposable changing pad for public restrooms
  • A thin, easily stored blanket for nursing, swaddling or chilly toddlers
  • Asprin for a mom migraine​

You might not like the backpack look (I didn't either but then I found one I loved! Petunia Pickle Bottom), so use a handbag with a bag insert instead! Over Christmas, I used this tote/insert for a few family events so I felt a little more dressed up when wearing a dress and heels.

I like to "hope for the best and prepare for the worst". Take a look in your diaper bag or purse right now - do you have everything that could actually make your life easier in there? 

Need ideas? Shop my *ultimate* Diaper Bag Checklist! Awesome for day trips and overnights, it lists everything you could possible need. It's a bestseller and only a few bucks!
