It's gorgeous, and I can't wait to use it for baby 2! I think the backpack and cross-body options will be excellent when juggling both kids.</p> <p>ETA: Did you pick one? Which?</p> <p>[attach=2313/16/oaznbo.600x595.lily_jade_madeline_diaper_bag.png] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2583282 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 17:31:38 +0000 Portboston 2583282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the Madeline and it's wonderful!!!! Definitely get either that or the Elizabeth. Backpack feature is key. There's a video on their Facebook about how to anchor your straps so they don't slide all the time. Makes it harder to switch between the different carry methods but I primarily use the backpack and shoulder straps for now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2583202 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 14:27:44 +0000 Foodnerd81 2583202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Backpack is so key with two kids. And I like the look of the first better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2583192 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 14:16:05 +0000 Eminthevalley 2583192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>#1 and #3 are good; I voted #1 for the crossbody ability. Backpack is good but sometimes you want to have stuff accessible while grabbing children/having your arms full! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2583171 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 13:30:40 +0000 youboots 2583171@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: then 1 I like the hidden zipper. This is the glam backpack I got. I also had the duo and am happy to be rid of it. I just put Ts backpack inside of mine.</p> <p>[attach=5281/16/oa0e34.600x450.image.jpeg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2583164 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 13:15:29 +0000 simplyfelicity 2583164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: 1 also has a backpack feature. :) </p> [attach=4953/16/oa0dep.560x400.o9ylfx.560x400.madeline.JPG] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2583157 Fri, 08 Jul 2016 13:08:06 +0000 youboots 2583157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They are all really cute but I voted three because it's awesome to have a backpack feature with a busy toddler.

Hate the skip hop duo, such a waste of money for me. Bottomless pit. I love love love Rosie, but it doesn't become a backpack, and I think I want a backpack for 2+. So, I'd say how much is backpack option end all be all for you? And if it is (I'm not sure whether or not I have to have it myself!) I'd go with the third option. I don't love the first one. Otherwise, Rosie! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2582613 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 15:25:45 +0000 Synchronicity 2582613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love the first one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2582608 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 15:23:45 +0000 FancyGem 2582608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like how the second bag looks, but I prefer the 1st one because it can be worn as a backpack. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2582600 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 15:08:19 +0000 snowjewelz 2582600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: I think it's worth it for you as you can double it as a work bag! I don't need such a big bag for work. </p> <p>I have the duo too but I don't hate it as much as you do :silly: I also don't use it full time; I switch between that, backpack and my long champ. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2582599 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 15:03:15 +0000 simplyfelicity 2582599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: You think so? I can't imagine using the duo for two kids ( you might have something different.) If I wasn't going to use it as a work bag also, I might pass. I agree that I wish I had gotten it from the start! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2582585 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 14:45:35 +0000 QBbride 2582585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like #2 best but would choose #1 for the backpack option. I use a backpack all the time while wearing baby and chasing after my toddler. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2582578 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 14:37:54 +0000 lovehoneybee 2582578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pretty bags!</p> <p>While I think I prefer the overall look of #2 (I like the rounded shape a little more), I'd probably opt for the added functionality of #1 (the backpack), even though it's not exactly the right color. I'm not crazy about #3 at all (like you, I prefer a simpler looking bag). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-me-pick-between-three-diaper-bags-plus-voting-is-fun#post-2582569 Thu, 07 Jul 2016 14:26:20 +0000 psw27 2582569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Those are cute!

I normally don't spend this kind of money on one item for myself but DH said I could get it for my birthday. </p> <p>Long story short, I hate my skip hop duo and would love to have something that could also be used for work (I am a teacher) and just for general carting things around after the baby days are gone. </p> <p>So I am in love with Lily Jade but I am stuck between three bags and could really use some help since this would likely be my last and final diaper bag. I want something that would be great with 2+kids, so I appreciate some insight as I just have one LO. All of them come with their awesome insert and are approximately the same size.</p> <p>Thank you!</p> <p>Option 1: The Madeline...<br /> I love the overall look and the fact that it can be a backpack, crossbody bag, and a shoulder bag. I am not terribly fond of the particular color (I tend to like more whiskey colored leather) but the fact that it can be a backpack is awesome. $285</p> <p>Option 2: The Rosie...<br /> I love the look and the leather on this one but it can't be worn as a backpack. That's pretty much the only downside but it's a big one. $309</p> <p>Option 3: The Elizabeth...<br /> I was originally not interested in this bag because of the pockets and buckles (I like a more simple look) but it comes in the leather I love AND can be a backpack. $295</p> <p>1.
