We're almost there!

Our TA arrived on Sept. 24 and we leave on Oct. 29. Gotcha day: Nov. 1. We're super-excited and super busy. And super behind: the crib that was supposed to be super easy to assemble took us most of Sunday, and it seems like every time I go to the store - even with a list - I forget at least two things we desperately need.

Now the big struggle is deciding what to take with us. For months I've been collecting a pile of toys, clothes and baby gear we might want to bring. That pile is now covers a rather large dresser and is about two feet deep. Yikes. What will we need? What can we leave at home? The answers will become very clear on Nov. 1!
