When Gab was a baby, we had this sleeve thing that you'd put in the freezer
and then slide over the bottle.  Kind of like bottle cozies.  Hmm, wonder if
they still make them, they were thin and didn't take up any more room than
the bottle. v

when you have a kid, you're just going to have to resign yourself to the 
fact that you're going to be carrying a ton of things. if you want your 
bottle cooler to take up less room. you can use a ziplock and an icepack.
