Nena and Co Baby Bag Giveaway

Hey guys! I have a FUN GIVEAWAY for you today! I teamed up with Nena and Co and created a custom diaper bag. For 6+ years my motto has been Blue Skies Ahead. I wore it printed on my bar necklace, on a bracelet and it was in my personal Instagram bio for about 3 years. Why? Because it was a reminder to look ahead towards a bright future and not dwell on the past. I really do believe my focus on those words helped carry me into the life I’m currently living. I asked Nena and Co to make my custom patches in honor of those special words.

The week before I delivered Ozzy, Poppy and Goldie (Avery still had school) started week 1 of their 2 week spring break. I think I needed this break more than they did. I wanted to spend as much time as possible with the kids to reassure (mainly Goldie) that having a new baby in the house (and her room, haha) wouldn’t change our relationship. Goldie has been the youngest for 7 years and she had created all sorts of scenarios how this new baby would play out. I’m grateful her mind is at ease now that Ozzy is here and she sees that I’m still the one to wake her up in the morning, take her to skateboarding, count how many times she can jumprope, make her dinner, tuck her in at night, etc.

What Goldie has been loving is her new loft bed Jeff built in the nursery (more on this next week) and playing mom to her babies using Ozzy’s crib, this ERGO carrier, and toting her baby around the house in my Nena bag. IMG_7605

So here’s how the Nena and Co Giveaway will work: Follow both @lunchpailsandlipstick and @nenaandco on Instagram and leave a comment here on the blog post. Winner will recieve a $300 credit to NenaandCo.com

Super easy, good luck!

Since having a miscarriage with our twins in January we have had or at least I have had some grey sky kind of days. Blue skies is perfect phrase for me right now because I am trying to see every day as a new day and as a day to be thankful for I do have. So thank you for that insight in seeing it in those words. ✖️☀️ Blue skies

  47. I lovs this whole website. Especially the name. And i love giveaways but havemt won one yet, so heres hoping!

  48. I love the idea of blue skies ahead! I have lately been thinking “pink skies” because it refers to a new day or sunrise, but I really think the blue skies motto might be whatvi adopt instead. It’s hopeful but constant. Thanks for sharing! and I love the bag, of course!

  49. This is an incredible giveaway! Thabk you! I’ve been wanting one of their bags for years!! With 2 boys, one being a newborn, I feel you can never be prepared enough. Ha I need a bag I can put lots into! And these bags are gorgeous.

  50. Love you guys.!!! And then your doing this… love you guys even more.!!! Whoooo hooo… here’s all my marbles.!!! Haha

  51. Both these brands are incredible. I love the good vibes you guys are always shining out way. Also the products are ridiculously amazing.

  52. So many people have commented on this already. I have swooned over nena &co bags for awhile. They are so incredibly amazing. I love your philosophy to look forward to blue skies. I have always had a motto, cream always rises to the top, meaning that no matter what situation I am in, I know that I will be successful.

  53. Blue Skies Ahead is such a cute motto! But it’s so true! Dwelling on the past only holds you back! There is a wide open world of opportunity and we have to take advantage of it!

  54. Her name! I love it! It’s so happy! And that bag along with that swinging ladder is everything! Fingers and toes are crossed!

  55. Been following Nena for years and I’m obsessed with all her products! I love everything!

  56. Such great IG! I am so excited I came across all the amazing items!!! I would love to be the lucky winnnnnner!

  57. I love the motto about blue skies. Duh a simple way to stay positive! I love it! Your blog posts are amazing. Nena & co bags are simply to die for. I’ve always wanted one!

  58. Giving birth any day now to my second baby which will make for two under two (15 months apart)! I too constantly worry that my little man will have trouble adjusting to a younger sibling but I know my love and attention for him will never change and once he sees that he will be perfectly content having a little sis. I love your phrase so I will have to remember “blue skies ahead” in the first few weeks, heck maybe even months, of getting the hang of two littles running around so close in age. The roller coaster ride is temporary but the love is forever! Ps I am in love with this bag, absolutely adorable!

  59. Congrats on the newest addition! So love following along with your sweet family.

  60. I have been following nena & co for years and love all their products!! I would love to win this!

  61. Done, done, and done!! Wow, what an amazing giveaway! It would be incredible and just a dream to win this! I have been wanting a bag here for so long!!!

  62. Love it!! I too wear a quote on a bracelet everyday; “start each day with a grateful heart” to always remind myself to be thankful and appreciate the little things. I am grateful for bloggers and brands like you guys to spread love and good vibes to all. xoxo -Marley

  63. I completely empathize with needing to spend time with the big-littles before the arrival of a new sibling. The day my youngest was born her sisters went to bed as usual, and when the woke up and ran into our room to say good morning they got to meet their sister for the first time. Coincidentally it was the last time that they ran into our room as soon as they woke up…. so as much as a new mom can appreciate a few extra minutes of sleep when you’ve been up all night tending to the needs of a new born, it’s equally heart wrenching to watch your relationships change, grow and adjust to a new family member being added to the household. I wish I cherished those early morning wake up and snuggles a little more.

  64. I am so impressed by Nena and company and how they impower and employ other women in another country, I’ve never heard of lipsticks and lunch pails but this websites seems super fun!!! Thanks for this amazing give away!!!

  65. “Blue skies ahead” love that so much. Needed that. Love this collab btw!

  66. Ooooooohhh…pick me pick me!! I am looking ahead to those blue skies with you!! ❤️

  67. These bags are seriously amazing!!! Would absolutely love to win one of these bags. I used to live in Guatemala so I know how wonderful the people that make these bags are. The colors are so amazing!! Thanks for this awesome giveaway.

  68. Well first and most importantly, congrats on your new bundle of joy! She’s a beauty! I follow you and Goldie both on Instagram and it’s great seeing how caring and loving you are towards every one of your girls! Just as much as you’re lucky to have them, they’re lucky to have you! May god continue to bless you and your family!

    & lastly I would totally love to win this giveaway! I’ve seen this bag on you and cara and I totally can’t take my eye off it, I go on your Instagram page all the time just too admire it lol! i tried to get my hands on one but unfortunately they sold out pretty fast…….oh please pick me oh please oh please oh please (fingers crossed)

  153. Lisa,

    We are so thrilled for your new little bundle of joy Miss Ozzy Monroe. I love how creative all of your girls names are. I am so happy to hear Goldie is at ease, my fear for a new baby is that Addison may feel the same.

    Addison and I love to be a part of your daily lives through social media and we are so excited to hopefully meet up with you guys this summer while we are in Carlsbad. Goldie is like Addisons idol haha. She loves to watch her videos and all her great dance moves, she too loves to dance. We recently just cut her long pretty hair because she wanted it like Goldies. Miss Goldie I hope you know how very special you are and it is so sweet to see you with your baby sister.

    As far as the Nena bags go, I often scroll through all the bags and the ones I love are usually sold out. So I would love to win credit to purchase this cute denim bag.

    Blue skies ahead is something I will use going forward with my children and you will get to be the story behind this beautiful outlook on the future.

    Much love,
    Ashley & Addison

  154. I am due with my second kiddo (Hank) in July. I know exactly what you mean by wanting to spend time with your other child/children. My daughter, June Anne (3)and I have been having lots of talks about being a big sister and how my love for her will never change. Love your blog and love that bag. It would be the absolute best diaper/mom bag ever!

  155. The denim bags are so fun! Love the option for customization. Blue Skies ahead

  156. LOVE LOVE LOVING this new bag! Have drooled over these bags for a long time. And I love the blue skies ahead mantra. So true. And something I need to remind myself of daily. Xoxo!

  157. LOVE your motto and attitude! Nenas bags are the best, here’s to hoping! My personal mantra has been “fake til you make it” for the better part of a decade and it has pulled me through some fires and tough seasons. Can’t wait to read more of you!

  158. Love this post and your Blue Skies motto! Focusing on the good stuff ahead is definitely what I need to be doing right now!
