and Eclipse and Drip Drops my other favourites!
I have my Petunia, which I love, but the Be Prepared has spoiled me with all it's pockets and compartments! I also like how easy it is to just wipe off my Be Prepared with a Damp cloth. The only thing I do not like about it, is once I fill it for an afternoon at the lake or a day trip of any kind the thing gets freak'n heavy! With my PBB I'm always worried I'm going to snag it get it dirty.
The only problem with my Be Prepared is that it's soooo big! I thought I'd need it with 2 kids, but now all Natasha usually needs when we go out is a Sippy/snack and then a Dipe and wipes, which all fit in my purse. If it's just a quick trip all I toss in my purse is a sippy and snack, so the Be Prepared will only be needed for day trips or visits to the lake with them, not full time use.
I've used it a lot since I bought it so it's not gone to waste - it's perfect for the day at the Lake, it was my carry on for our trip to Amsterdam/France, and I've used it for her overnight bag on a couple of other trips since then. It will definitely be used at the lake next summer, for overnight/day trips and camping, I forgot I used it for camping last summer as well. So I do not regret the choice to buy it, but now that I'm in a frame of mind to TTC again, and with the spread between the kidlets, this bag will just be too big for one child. :p
I'll have to keep an eye out at the local stores for the patterns. Maybe they'll have a new spring pattern that I will fall in love with. The more I look at Julia's Ribbons it seems a bit 'busy'.
i am coveting the Eclipse pattern something fierce... but i don't think i'll be getting the Be Prepared... oh, the dilemma... :P
