Started Packing Last Night Great Tip Thanks To These Boards!!!!

[ObsessedwithWDW]

We leave in 18 days and I am SO EXCITED I started to pack last night....WELL I have been stocking up on stuff for MONTHS but took a great tip from THESE BOARDS and I have to say I was skeptical but now doing it it makes so much sense.
I have a DD 10 months...so this is SO GREAT!

ZIP LOCK BAGS! I have in a ONE GALLON ziplock bag all of the following:

4 diapers
2 swim diapers
3 disposable spoons
4 disposable bibs (incase we get a mickey ice cream)
4 disposable burp clothes
1 DAWN dishtowel (in another ziplock baggie)
1 bowl with oatmeal for the day
AND IN ANOTHER 1 GALLON BAG I have

1 Gerber fruit serving
2 Veggie servings
1 DINNER (i.e. chicken and rice or Turkey and veggies)
3 servings of POWDER FORMULA

SO NOW EACH DAY all I have to do is grab 2 bags and throw them in my diaper bag...NO THINKING INVOLVED!

WHAT A GREAT TIP....anything else that is as ingenious as this?????

wow that IS ingenious! the only other thing i can think of is to pack your DD's entire outfit for each day (including socks & hair accessories) in gallon ziplocs, so each day you just pull one out of the suitcase and can completely dress her w/o digging around for things

 

[ObsessedwithWDW]

YES that is my next step....I have all the clothes layed out just need to pull hair accessories and socks out and don't have quite enough of them to pack them away NOW. NEXT WEEK FOR SURE! I BOOKED THIS TRIP when I was 4 months pregnant as something to look forward to for the following year....I AM SO EXCITED that its HERE!

We are arriving on Sept 23 - Sept. 30!! I also have secretly started packing - the trip is a BIG surprise for my 6 year old DS. I also have a 2 year old and I am planning on using the old Ziplocks as well! Hope you have a great trip - see you there!!!!

I made a "poop pack" that consisted of:
1 diaper
1 disposible changing pad (Huggies)
1 purell wipe
1 smaller ziploc bag with 5 wipes in it, for the messy variety.
1 blue diaper disposable baggie.
I grabbed the pack when I went to the Baby Care Center so I didn't need to dig through the diaper bag. It was so easy! I think I took 3-4 packs in the park with me for the day. We also used them on the airplane which made the cross country flight much easier.
