The "Man Purse"

I'm not really sure where this came from, but I certainly remember the first time my wife applied it to me. She was only joking about how much stuff I took with me when I was out with Baby H.

The contents:

  • Diapers and wipes
  • Food for both Baby H and me
  • Juice for Baby H
  • Antiseptic wipes
  • Pacifier
  • Bib
  • Tylenol, sunscreen, and bug repellent
  • Bike stuff – spare tube, multi-tool, 15mm wrench, ankle strap, u-lock
  • Small notebook and pen
  • Sharpie marker
  • A couple of toys for Baby H
  • Feeding spoon
  • Sunglasses

Whenever I head out the door, I usually add my day planner and cell phone to the mix, and sometimes a book or two.

I think Mrs. H's biggest complaint is really the weight. With my u-lock and the juice in there, it gets pretty heavy, but Baby H and I get around by bike a lot during the summer, so it's a necessity.
