#88 - Hit The Road


I love traveling. I love planning my itinerary; places I wanna visit, things I wanna buy, food I wanna eat. You know, all that jazz. But, yes, there's but. There's one thing that I hate about traveling and that is packing.

I can be very complicated when it comes to packing. There are so many things to consider. Now, not only I have to pack for myself, I have to pack for Inas as well. Thank God, En. Suami packs his own bag. Phew.

We went back to Kuantan last two weeks. It was Inas first road trip and my first road trip with a baby. Being the complicated me, I packed everything one day before the traveling day. I went through each and every routine to help me to pack. It was quite easy to do it that way so I won't forget any essentials. 

For example, our morning starts with a morning bath. What do we need for bathing time? Shower gel, shampoo. After that, what do need to get ready? Lotion, massage oil, talcum etc. I also have a traveling packing list (got it at Babycenter.com) that helps me in case I miss any other essentials. 

Since Inas does not have a suitcase (YET!), she is using mine for the time being. Here's what and how I organize everything in the bag.

1) 1 bag of 24 diapers. However, not a fan of Mamypoko. Still prefers Drypers.

2) What's inside the floral bag; Inas' toiletries. 

3) What's inside the box: Socks, mitten and hairbands.

4) Pillow and blanket

5) Enough clothes.

Things that are not packed in the bag;

1) Bottles

2) Mosquito net.

We are going back to Kuantan tomorrow morning as we are holding Inas's aqiqah ceremony on Saturday. That means I have to pack again. It's going to be less tricky this time around as we already bought the toiletries set in Kuantan.

Now, where can I get a funky suitcase that won't cost a bomb?

Till then.
