Travel Crib and Sleep Deprivation

Happy April! There's nothing like April to make you say, "Wow, we're leaving the country in less than two weeks; we better get a move on."

We actually completed a dry-run of packing this weekend. At this time, it looks like we'll be traveling with two carry-on bags and a day bag (and no more). Well, the car seat, but we think we can hook that over our rolling bag.

Most of our clothes and toiletries are all within one bag, if you can believe that. The other bag is mostly consumed by the travel crib. We've used the travel crib with middling success when we went to Denver last month and began having the debate about its usefulness Saturday.

"Let's try it out," C said, and I said okey-dokey, knowing full well that A has been sleepless this week and it's about the worst time to try a sleep experiment.

Except that he slept brilliantly in the travel crib.

So we tried it again last night, and again, he slept soundly and peacefully in the travel crib.

Now the travel crib is definitely going.
