Munchkin Arm and Hammer Disposable Changing Pads 10pk / WubbaNub Elephant / Funny Baby Onesie I'd Flex but I Like This Onsie Onsy Crossfit... / Skip Hop 'Wise Owl' Stroller Toy / Arm Hammer Diaper Bag Dispenser Bags
My husband and I were born and raised in Minnesota. It's where our families still live and we visit frequently, driving the 9-10 hours from Eastern Montana. The trip used to be a breeze. Just pack a few outfits for the week and buzz on East to Minnesota. But, with the new baby it has gotten a little more complicated. Here are 8 things we never leave home without:
Arm & Hammer Dirty Diaper Bags: Sometimes you have no choice on a long road trip but to stop and change a diaper in the car. Make sure you have some of these diaper bags on hand so you're vehicle doesn't smell like poo for the rest of the trip! These bags really do block all of the most disgusting odors. Trust me. I've been there...
Wubbanub Pacifier: Once again, this useful little invention does double duty. We use it for nap time and play time in the car and don't have to worry about a extra toy.
Hanging Toy: We always have a hanging toy on the car seat handle for long trips. The toys move with the motion of the vehicle so it gives them something interesting to watch. We have an owl sort of like this one from Diapers.com - Wise Old Owl
Car Seat Strap Covers: I realize that some car seats come with little strap covers, but we really love these ultra soft ones from Eddie Bauer. Plus, some have animal heads that stick out and our little one loves to squish them when he's napping.
Changing Pads: You'll also want to make sure you have some type of changing pad along. These are disposable ones, but you can also find reusable ones with pockets for wipes and diapers. Or, if you're crafty, make your own! My sister-in-law made us one that I love!
Extra Clothes: Babies leak. It's inevitable. If it's not a messy diaper, then it's spit-up or drool. Either way, make sure you have a couple extra outfits for them (like this adorable onesie), and an extra shirt for you!
Wet Bags: Traditionally for cloth diapers, these bags are completely leak proof! You can throw dirty clothes in there, swimsuits, or use it for your extra clothes bag. They are awesome! I would recommend going with the medium or large bags as the small can only fit one or two cloth diapers.
Burp Cloths: Don't leave home without at least one burp rag! You'll need it. I promise.
