How Packing For The Trip

If you are a mother who underestimate the preparation time involved in planning a family vacation in the first place, and now almost obsessive compulsive about it, is not alone.

I took my first plane with a 1 year old, no car, no pack-n-play and five layers. I did not know the time needed to obtain a crying baby to sleep on a plane or stress and the resulting pressure in the eyes of other passengers, looking in my direction, hoping that somehow his eyes calm my baby.

Also, do not expect to run out of diapers, while the last leg of our trip, our daughter had a big party and listen carefully, the planes do not wear diapers. I learned to be resourceful and made a blanket from a diaper and sanitary napkin, but at the end of it I almost swore that the family holiday air travel accordingly.

Hawaii has changed
Then my husband received a call from his boss saying that a family trip to Hawaii for two weeks as a thank you for driving through a snowstorm to meet with clients. Of course, while my husband goes to work, so I do not have transportation and 7 months pregnant with a 2 years but is in Hawaii .
With one month to the plan, he immediately said that he had a car seat and an in-game package in the car hire on arrival. Never travel again without a car, so I decided to bring a car to make my slim line two years around the airport.
Director within 48 hours of travel time
Travelling abroad has taught me enough to pack a sleeping bag for 48 hours. No matter if the trip is planned a few hours, expect the worst when you have kids. Any type of storm or mechanical failure can land a plane for 24 hours and we have to pack some snacks, toys, water and basic supplies for our children in these times.
My plan of action began with a travel itinerary that includes both the EST and in real time in Hawaii. This is what you can try to stay as close as possible to their program on the road and the way back. The itinerary also includes a breakdown of every day what we do when we are in Honolulu, including directions to the local Costco.
Later, very carefully to my daughter’s hand luggage. Each item in his bag had to be something that keeps your attention: a DVD player with films, paper and crayons, small favorite books, diapers and wipes 7, protein bars, dried fruit and snacks 12-ounce bottle of empty water once we’re through security.
My hand luggage will include suits 3.2 for each of us, and a bag of toiletries, diapers and wipes, plus seven additional protein bars, fruit snacks, boxes of milk cooling, water, blankets and stuffed Teddy.

Checked baggage toy
The toys are more important than clothing. We all want to look good every day of our vacation, but prefer not to have a baby happy and encouraged those who sleep well at night, so you can have some alone time?
We are allowed to check one bag per passenger, that’s how I filled each. Both my daughter and my clothes will be packed in a suitcase. I am filled with light clothing, no wrinkle shirts, shorts, jeans, cardigans, like layers of lightweight shirts and jersey pieces and a rain jacket and some groups of pajamas for each of us. We have access to a washer and dryer in our unit! my husband’s suitcase full of clothes, work items, etc.

This is the most important lesson: the third bag full of toys. In an extension bar raft pool, diving equipment, puzzles, coloring books, DVDs, activity books, stuffed animals. Whatever one and you get to use the package bag.
Clothing Plan

We’ve all been at the airport as a mother of three beautiful children who walk in a flowing dress and heels. We all want to be right? I tried this on my last vacation. I was wearing a printed dress and cardigan boho maxi at the airport for my five-hour trip became a journey of 12 hours. Even if he felt comfortable about the plan, no walking for miles along the airport corridors. But I woke up happened when I got off the plane and the temperature was in the 40′s with a robe and sandals.

Now, in the back of my mind well-dressed mother jokingly think that walking through the airport to try this for the first time, and if all goes well, you can try again, but when he holds back at all airports one day to his pair of jeans more comfortable shoes and a shirt.
