Three More Days!

Sorry there hasn't been much posting on the "Blob" as one of our friends calls it, we are suddenly busy, packing and organizing, washing baby clothes, decorating her room, making list after list after list.....It is tricky to fit all the stuff we'd like to bring in our allotted bags. Our checked bags can only weigh 44 lbs., and then we have a carryon each. We have documents, cameras, medications, diapers and diaper bag, baby carrier, clothes for all of us, baby bottles and formula,and of course, we want to leave room for all the stuff we'll buy over there, so we pack and then take some stuff out and try again. Luckily, there's Wal Mart and lots of places to buy whatever we don't bring over there, as well as laundry in the hotels. We are shrinking our stuff with "packmates"; those cool bags that you roll the air out of. Today we put the car seat in the van.I just tried to take pix in Laina's room but it is very small and hard to get a decent shot, so here is a photo of a funny thing that Jimmy gave me for my birthday last year, called "The Wheel of Responsibility".Only 3 more days!!Yippee!
