Pack up your Troubles

I am in the process of packing for our first holiday as a family of 3! My Dad lives in Brno, Czech Republic and we are going to visit him, his wife and my little brother Danny. Danny is 3 weeks old than JC so they will be good company for each other!


I hate packing, I never know how much to pack and I either end up with too many clothes, not enough or ones that don't match. The worst thing is when I have a lovely outfit but realise that I haven't brought the perfect pair of shoes. I have a shoes/sandals fetish!

However, this year I find myself pretty laid back about what I will pack for myself as I am so preoccupied by what I will need to take for JC. It's going to feel like I am packing up the whole house. I also have all these worries about the flight, time difference, forgetting something essential, food change and at the moment I am concerned about taking fluids on the plane. I am even having nightmares about being stopped by security! I need to stop stressing and remember that this is meant to be a relaxing break.
