 Be Small vs. BeTween
ok, one more question (as if i can't decide which bag i want already!), i also started thinking that if we go just out for a walk with the stroller and i just want something little and quick (to hold my stuff and the very basics for a walk), should i get a Be Small or wait for the new Between? When will the Between be available to view on this website (to see the inside and all the styles) and when will it be available to order through various retailers? Our main stroller (the Micralite Toro, which is way cool!) has very small storage space under so for a neighborhood or long walk, i would want something i could put under the stroller, as opposed to doing errands when i would want my bag more accessible (either hanging on me or the stroller). I know the Be Small would fit, how much bigger is the between? My current bag is about the size of the Be Smart and it just barely fits under there, it's very tight.
Also, i was thinking of ordering either the Be Spicy or Packabe and want to know if i should hold off until the new spring/summer colors come out and when that would be. thanks for the help.

H there and welcome to the Pink Room!!!
All of the new prints on all of the bags plus the beTween will be added to our website on this Friday, the 15th!!! They will be available for pre-order at your etailers on Friday as well, but they won't be shipped until some time in March (probably around the middle of March).
The beTween is very similar in size to the be small only it is a bit deeper because of an extra zippered pocket in the rear and a hair wider because of the insulated drink holders on either side. Plus it has a fabulous mommy pocket in front that gussets. So, if you think the be small would fit with your stroller than I think the beTween would as well. Plus they both have d-rings in which you can attach to a stroller or the strap is long enough to drape over the handles (if you didn't want to put it under for some reason).
Have fun deciding!!

Also, Rachelle, Do your bags come with a wipes case? Do i need to purchase one separately or do you sell them as an accessory (i didn't see them on the website)? That might be a fun accessory for you to provide as well!!!

For me BeSmall is perfect bag for short trips or as a diaperbag for one baby. But I think that BeTween will be a superperfect if it ia a little bit bigger. But it doesn't matter if it not bigger ,it's just a beautifull bag.I'll buy one

Does anyone know how the capacity of the BeTween will compare with the Be Smart? Will they both hold about the same, just organized differently. I'm really trying to get 2 bags - one for quick trips/errands (like running out for an hour) and walks with the stroller, and a 2nd bag that is bigger and will hold more for an all day outing or afternoon out doing stuff, or trip over to grandma's house. So i'm debating returning my Fleurville Sling tote (as suggested by another board member) which is comprable to the JJB Be Smart in size i think, and trading it in for the Be Spicy, and then getting a BeTween for my smaller bag. Would my bases be covered with these 2 bags (one larger and one smaller)? Oh yeah, this is my first baby, and i'm planning to breast feed, so no bottles yet, but eventually we'll be using bottles, so something i can grow into with a toddler or more than one kid. I really love the Be Spicy and think it would make for a great everyday bag. Oh yeah, and eventually maybe we'll add a Packabe to the mix! But to start off with, would the BeTween and Be Spicy have me covered for quick and longer trips? Thank you for the help - I'm definitely going to wait until friday to decide so i can see the BeTween features and the new patterns! If you have any other suggestions for how to configure my bag wardrobe, i'm open to suggestions!!! But I know I want 2 - one bigger and one smaller. Thanks!!!

Those two bags would definitely cover you for short trips (beTween) and longer outings (be spicy). Other good choices for the longer outings are the packabe and brb. Just depends on how you like to carry your bags (backpack and messenger (packabe) or backpack only (brb) or with the messenger or tote (be spicy) So many choices!!!

You'd be covered for now and like you said, with an additional baby. I have 2 in diapers and I'm a light packer, so I use the be small or mini be for quick trips and the be spicy or packabe for longer outings. And I think this was mentioned, but you might want a be mine for you to make it easier than a purse and bag and for easily switching your stuff between bags...whichever you choose! You can't go wrong with a jjb!!!
