If your childhood was anything like mine, you probably grew up wondering, "How does mom always know!?" It didn't matter how quiet or careful you were, mom somehow knew what you were up to.

DIY Little Tote Bag
One thing that I don't think is really communicated to a first time mom is the bag you will need AFTER the diaper bag.
