A helpful packing tip when preparing to travel to meet your new child.


When we traveled to pick up our soon-to-be adopted daughter, we were gone for about two weeks. During the time that we were away, we accumulated a gob of stuff: baby clothes, blankets, diapers, you name it!

Thankfully, we were driving our van, so bringing everything home wasn’t too big an issue. However, if we would have been traveling by plane, we would have had to go and purchase another suitcase (or two!).

When packing for your trip, remember to pack a duffle bag (or other soft, foldable bag -- that zips shut) inside your suitcase. This way you’ll have something to easily bring all those extra items back in.
