What features are you looking for? How many kids are you packing for? What are you packing for them? That should help :D

Packing for 1 baby..

Prob bottles, diapers, change of clothes and some of my personal items as well.
Roomy enough so I could use as a purse so I dont have to carry both some days. Easy to clean. Nice looking yet functionable

Thanks! :)

Sorry for the delay...

Do you like messenger style bags or tote style bags? I am quite partial to Ju Ju Be bags. They hold up awesome, are very well organized and are machine washable. They also have mommy pockets in the front with room for most of your mommy stuff. I have a Be Tween and I loved it when the baby was smaller. I am planning to use it again this summer when I am home and packing for two all day. It is small but fits more than you think it would.

Here is a link to my post with pics in the Pink Room (Ju Ju Be forum) re: packing my Be Tween. Bottles/sippys would go into outside bottle pockets on either side.

Here is a thread with pics of a packed BFF. It fits more stuff but has a different shape and you can wear it as a backpack as well as a messenger:

I can look for a thread with packed Spicy pics if you'd like as well. :D

HTH!

ETA: There are some Be Tweens on sale at Amazon. Plus you can return it free if you don't like it. http://www.amazon.com/Ju-Be-Tween-Diaper-Lullaby/dp/B001IMAJW8/ref=sr_1_1?s=baby-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1303390750&sr=1-1

I replied to your other thread but just in case you didnt see it I'll repost it here :)

I found the Between to be too small for my needs (one newborn). I went with the JuJuBe BFF. The BFF is very roomy, stylish, has multiple carry options (shoulder, backpack, handle) and, most importantly to me, it's mashine washable. I really like the size, insulated bottle pockets, all of the organization inside, the "mommy pocket," and the overall quality.

Even if you don't get a JJB bag, you might consider some of their accessories. These are the ones I've found particularly helpful - and they're all mashine washable:
-Mess shuttle (a great wet bag)
-Be Quick bags (bags to organize the inside of your diaper bag that can hold anything like a change of clothes, dipes, wipes, etc)
-Pacipod (the best paci holder I've found)
-Fuel cell (insulated cooler)
