31 Kid.... Not Just for the Kids!

I really love so many products in Thirty-One Gifts' new 31 kid catalog. Not only because I'm a mom of 2 little ones, but because so many of the products can be used for ME. Here's a few of my favorites.

• Thermal Bottle Carrier used to hold your water bottle. I've sold so many of these to people who do not even have children. They are the perfect size to put your water, juice or soda bottle into. They are thermal lined so the drink stays cold. When you put them in your bag, everything doesn't get wet from the "sweat" that forms on your bottle. I have a few just for me. I love this product.
  
• Mommy Tote as a gym bag. This is a great size to fit all your necessities in for going to the gym. It's made of a vinyl material so you can just wipe it off if you need to. And, this is my favorite part, the side pockets designed to hold sippy cups can easily fit your water bottle. Perfect!
• Kids' Fold 'n Go Organizer for your calendar. Yes, the Kids' Fold 'n Go Organizer is great for bringing fun activities for the kids on a trip. But, you can also organizer yourself with this. Put your day planner in the middle, pen, calculator and address book. It's a nice little office on the go.
• Grab 'n Go Backpack for me. This backpack is perfect for your little one. But, it's also great for mom when she wants to be hands free (to help keep control of the children) and a small backpack is enough. I just ordered one for myself and can't wait for it to come in. It will be very handy at the park or just going for a walk with the kids.
