BFS: Never Leave Home Without It


Intro: Never Leave Home Without It (Marketing Credit: American Express) Diapers, bottles, wipes, bibs, pacifiers, extra clothing, cell phone, PDA, ipod, iphone, credit or debit cards … what would you never leave home without?


Don't take this wrong, y'all, bc I lovelovelove my babies, but I'm happy to say that I CAN actually leave the house without the kids now!!! Rayray is a great sister-sitter.


But what can I NOT leave home without? Besides the normal keys, wallet, cell phone, I HAVE to have a water bottle....esp in this heat. Gum is also a necessity.


But the most important thing of all.......Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer in Watermelon. I have this "thing" where I have to have something on my lips all the time and Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer in Watermelon (and sometimes Rhubarb) is the daytime balm of choice. It's not watermelon flavored. That is just the color name. It has peppermint oil in it...and I just adore it and can't leave home without it.


Our little Appledumpin' went through a stage where she never left home without her AG Bitty Baby. That sweet baby doll has been everywhere from WalMart to tennis lessons to church to the mountains to Disneyworld. It made me sad earlier this summer when she started leaving Joy behind occasionally and choosing instead to take a purse. I think it's safe to say the child has a purse fetish. She's her Mema's grandchild, for sure! ;)

I have Burt's Bees, but just the plain. I will have to look for the color it looks really pretty.

Enjoyed your post!

I'm the same way with chapstick. I don't have a fave, but I have to have something on my lips. It's a ritual now before bedtime, too.

I see you're in South GA. We're in Middle GA. Enjoyed your post!

I have a couple tubes of Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer in my purse too. I don't wear it on a daily basis, but I like to know it is there when I need it. LOL

oh, I need to try that it sounds good. I love their baby stuff, so I am sure I will like the chapstick. Hope you get the chance to tag some fellow bloggers and I am looking forward to reading 6 random things about ya!

SO FUN!

I love this post cause it is SOOOO true. I've never gotten in the car with you where you haven't first applied the Burt's and then cranked the car to leave.
