Road trip

We are a gypsy family. I kind of like it that way. We are constantly on the go and I try to take advantage of not working and getting our travel on with the kids.

Jameson has been on the road more than 100 hours in his short little life and over 8 flights! He's my seasoned traveler for sure! He is the BEST travel buddy :)

Mollie has completed over 80 hours on the road and she's only 6 months ;)

I'm going to give you a little run down of our packing situation and how we organize for a couple different situations.

We will be hitting the road again in a week, for a month! We will be in a few different cities for a few different lengths of time.

For a trip where you will NOT be stopping somewhere over night:
One week away
- 1 pair of clothes for every child (I put the outfits in ziplock bags so I can throw a bag at any capable adult and it has their socks, pants, shirts, belts, bows, ect. for that specific outift)
- For Jameson(2 years old) I usually get away with 2 sets of PJs but for Mollie(6 months- puker) I always bring 4
- I put a pair of socks for everyday with the outfit in the bag
- My Jameson just has one pair of tennis shoes so he wears them in the car
- This winter we will be bringing his snow boots (Just in case)

A month or more away
My children do not have many outfits - just about a weeks worth- We end up bringing all of their outfits and Pjs

For both types of trips 
- Bath seat for the babes
- Johnson head to toe wash
-wash cloth
- 2 kiddie towels
- sippy cups
- kid utensils
-baby wipes
- diapers (about 5 a day)
- baby medicine - Tylenol/syringe and any other meds they are on
- baby food/puffs
- bottles/formula/bottle brush
-bibs/ burp cloths
-small bottle of dawn
- snacks for the toddler
- personal dvd player
-dvds
- a small basket of books
-small basket of toys
 *- snow suits, boots, hats, gloves, mittens

(We will be staying with family for these trips so I will use their laundry detergent )

We pack all the kids clothes and bath things in one bag. All of our clothes in another bag.
We pack all kitchen/food related items in a small carry bag
we pack all diapers, medicines, ect in a bag

In the car (the trunk) we have a double stroller, a pack and play, a toddler cot, and out 2 clothes bags
Under the infant carrier we usually store the bag of diapers/medicines
In between the two seats on the floor we store the diaper bag(has everything you need like normal)
Under the toddlers feet we store the bag with the kitchen/food items
in between the two seats on the actual seat is where we store the basket of books and toys for toddlers easy access.
We rest the dvd player on top of the diaper bag for easy access for Mom to change Mickeys annoying voice after a few hours

On our most recent road trip we had minimum crying and screaming from Mollie so we are hoping that as we jump into a few more road trips before the end of 2013 it will be smooth sailing.
