Do you know yet what you're getting?

This is such a generous offer. I am still trying to decide on my pre-order. Pretty sure I'm just getting a brown/ZZ MightyBe and black/lilac Quick. I need a pretty new library/school bag (MB) and manicure kit (Quick).

I'd love a BeHave, but I'm way too much of an overpacker for it to work as a diaper bag for me. And I carry teensy purses when I'm by myself. That'll work out for my favor though, I think. By the time I'm ready for a BeHave, hopefully someone will have one on FSOT and want to trade. I lubs me some tradesies!!!

I'm can't bring myself to spend $160 on a bag that is not leather but if I can get it for a lower price, I may consider getting one. That's why I'm hoping if I'm patient enough, one will pop up on FSOT in a few months for a good price

The MB will be perfect as a library bag! Good thinking!

The MB is gorgeous in EL.

Nope! Although it is really pretty. I don't really use the MB I hve enough to use two....Although, I do really love it and find it handy, it's just not an everyday bag for
me right now!

What uses are you finding for it right now? I'm still deciding whether to get an EL MB

I find it's great for when I am out shopping with my boys by myself and just have a few small things to pick up, my Major fit in to either of the big pockets, it's good for taking to the post office when you have packages to drop off, I used it for a road trip for keeping all the "essentials" up in the front seat, I use it when taking the boys outside (we have 5 acres so dashing back inside for a coat, drink etc is an involved process of preschool wrangling!), it's a good library bag...It holds my Ergo perfectly and with a few quicks, would make an awesome diaper bag! I just prefer a hands free diaper bag most of the time. I totally think you should get one! They are awesome bags!!

Thanks for the info! I want to use it as a diaper bag, but think it might be too big (I prefer a more boxy tote) to carry daily. I think I might cave soon

Thanks for the review Jamie! Do you find that it's too floppy since there is no structure to it? Are you able to find what you're looking for easily or do things end up shifting around throughout the day?

Great question! I think that is causing some of my hesitancy.

Ahhhh! I just pulled the trigger and ordered a Black EL MB!! Fingers crossed it's fabulous!

I helped out Kesseli in the PR by taking her LDD credit...it expires June 10th so I wouldn't be able to use it for Summer pre-order. This way I get another LDD credit I can't wait!! And if I don't like it, I'm sure someone will take it off my hands

In a really round-about way. I paid $10 for Kesseli's credit...so not really a discount. But credit toward the next purchase

The only times I have taken it out, I have had the Ergo in it, so it stood up well in the car because it was pretty stuffed. But, it has to be really stuffed to stand up on it's own...Otherwise, yes, it flops over. My DH who generally likes my JJB Bags, is not a fan f the MB at all Because, he can never find anything...There is no "this pocket for this, and that pocket is for that". It would need a lot of help...quicks, sets, etc to be organized. I dont usually carry it around when I have lots to do...If I am going to the PO it's fabulous...Package in there, wallet in here, carry it tote style on my shoulder, and I am hands free...It doesnt slide off. Same with quick shopping trips where I need just to pick up one or two things, I can put my small purchases in the MB to leave me hands free. It would not be my go-to bag with two small children though. I have threaded the quick through the rings on the side (for the stroller clips) so that when I do have diapers in there, it is easy to find...I have done the same with the paci pod on the other side. But, if I were spending an afernoon at the park, and had to pack snacks, sunscreen, etc, etc, etc...I wouldnt pick this bag over my other bags. But, I do find the MB to be fabulous! It folds up nicely in to a Quick, so it makes a great shopping bag, or library bag just to take with you in the diaper bag.

Oh I see. I thought Kesseli gave you her credit in exchange for some work you did for her. That's how I interpreted the first sentence Don't mind me....my mind likes to wander at times

At least you regained after your first. I lost after DS1, lost even more after DS2 and now I'm just completely lost
