Baby Bags and Generosity

As you know from this post, I have been wishing for and obsessing about a Petunia Pickle Bottom diaper bag. I really liked the boxy backpacks best for their style/price, and was planning to save up for one once we got some extra cash.

But to my surprise, I was blessed with a PPB diaper bag this afternoon - gifted by two amazing girlfriends, Laura and Lorean (and their husbands and kiddos too)!!!!  

Matt brought in a large wrapped box, set it in Baby M's nursery and told me that someone had dropped off a present, but that he was going to have to videotape me as I opened it because the people who had dropped off the gift wanted to see my reaction. Here is the video:

After this, I called them both to thank them (over and over I might add), gush about how much I love the bag ( I LOVE it!) and how blessed I am by their precious and thoughtful gift! I am still in shock. Here is a picture of the bag - isn't it beautiful? 


It's similar to the Tea on the Thames style that I liked, but the version they gave is shinier and prettier. I love it! I can't wait to fill it with baby gear.  My friends continue to amaze me with their generosity and love for us and our sweet child to be.

THANK YOU LAURA AND LOREAN! I love you sooo much!!!
