Packing

What do two people pack for a 16-day adoption adventure with stops in Paris, Dubai and Addis Ababa? An adventure that will include traveling home with a six-month-old baby girl? The list includes:



120 diapers

baby wipes

baby wash

diaper cream

6 bottles

2 cans of formula

$200 worth of baby clothes to donate to orphanage

12 outfits for our baby

baby blanket

camera

laptop

toiletries

clothes for 2 adults

shoes

medicines

reading material

adoption documents

etc.



We managed to pack all of this and more into:




Ta-da! Pretty amazing, right? We were able to carry everything on the plane with us. No checked bags. No worrying about lost luggage. It can be done.
