Favorites picks from some small brands I love, plus items on my own wishlist!

One of my #1 mom essentials: The Kibou fanny pack diaper bag! It's super portable, so cute (doesn't LOOK like a diaper bag) and has space for everything you need and nothing that you don't! Has a wet compartment for wipes, a clip for keys or a pacifier, fits an iPhone in the front pocket, has hard slots, and is roomy enough for a full sized bottle, plus diaper (or two), and even a couple small toys. The back has a removable fold-out changing pad, and when baby is out of diapers, you can remove it and replace with their "boo boo bag" portable first-aid kit. Also make sure to check out their accessories kits for babies, toddlers, and even dogs! (Yes, it's the perfect dog mom bag, too!) Makes the BEST baby shower gift! For older kids out of diapers (or moms that just need less!) they just came out with a MINI version that is also so cute. Linking that below as well! The best part: it's a small, mom-owned company!
