Cute backpacks & lunch bags

[Wilson]

We were at Imagination Stop in Alden Bridge today and they've gotten some backpacks, lunch boxes, & nap mats with adorable designs. Definitely geared for the younger set - nursery school, through I'd say 1st grade.

I wish I could still buy the cutesie stuff for my kids. But, even my youngest wants no part of it. I ordered his backpack and lunchbox from Old Navy. Right now, he is into everything camouflage.

I've already ordered backpacks from LLBean or Lands End... I don't remember which lol. I prefer the metal lunchboxes and ordered a Ramones and a Rolling Stones, but the Ramones was backordered, so I cancelled the order (already received the RS though and it's rockin'!) and got a sports motif lunchbox for 5yo ds from Imagination Stop. School supplies were purchased last year through the PTO - now i just need maybe a couple of new outfits, haircuts for the boys, then we're set!

I am SO glad now I purchased the school supplies through the PTA last year. The older kids don't have a "list" like my youngest does, so we wait until the first couple of days of school when the teachers hand out individual lists.

I still need to take them all out to buy shoes. And, a few more outfits for my daughter. I ordered everything online for the boys. They aren't as picky as she is.

Sounds like it is time for me to get excited about school starting again! Yea! Both of you know that I like for school to be IN session! ha

I guess there will be a Back to School party at Natv's home!

NO KIDS ALLOWED! LOL
