Why is it so heavy?

I generally think that by kid #3, I've got this Mom thing down.  I know that I don't have to haul around a suitcase of clothes and a medicine cabinet in my diaper bag since a crisis of that magnitude is rare.  So, why, oh why, do I feel like my diaper bag is slowing ripping my shoulder off?

Weapons Cache?

This is what I pulled out of my diaper bag recently.  I had a spare ten minutes and decided to clean out my bag.  Yes, clean it out...meaning I go through it looking for something other than my keys, wallet and emergency wipe and I have my hands in it longer than it takes to shove a toy inside. 

Seriously...no wonder it felt like it weighed a ton. It did.  There are five, yes FIVE, Monster Jam trucks alone in there.  Five! What on earth was I thinking?  Plus at least three other face cars, a set of LEGO wheels, two Mickey board books, a Mickey, a Daisy, two pairs of girly sunglasses and two baby rattles and a baby teething toy. 

Sheesh.

Note to self: Clean out diaper bag more often.  I haven't even mentioned how much money I found stuffed in there!
