Backpack, Backpack!

I bought a backpack recently to use instead of the wrap around the shoulder/body diaper bag I've had for a year, because I figured a backpack is easy to throw on and doesn't get in the way....things that are important for a mom who often has to juggle little kids, a stroller, bags, and opening doors at the same time.  And then there's the fact that we ride on airplanes every now and then, so I'm hoping that having a backpack I can throw on and forget about will be nice when trying to shimmy down the plane aisle with all the stuff you have to take on a flight when you fly with littles.

As I was transferring items from my diaper bag to my new backpack, the boys saw me and ran to get their backpacks.  Then they ran around for a while playing, forgetting they were wearing them most of the time.  We made a train through the living room, at one point, while singing "Backpack, Backpack!  Backpack, Backpack!" (from "Dora the Explorer").  :)




I love these backpacks!  We also have the matching lunch kits which are super cute as well.  They're made by Skip Hop, and they actually have many different animals to choose from.  ADORABLE and perfectly sized for my little guys.

Now I have that "Backpack, Backpack!" song stuck in my head again.  Awesome.  Here, watch it so you know what I'm talking about.
