For all of you who agreed with me that I was crazy for taking two kids, two car seats, a stroller, a crib, a suitcase, and a diaper bag by myself to DC and through public transportation to meet my sister, I update the plans here.  Thank you for all of your ideas for simplifying!

My parents are going to have me rent the van they were going to rent a few hours early so that I don’t have to take the bus and subway with multiple changes.  We (meaning they, or my aunt) are also renting one car seat from the rental car company.  This way I’ll only fly with the one car seat that Degen will sit in on the plane.  Colin will bring the other car seat on his flight in that evening, and we’ll return the rented car seat the next day.  My aunt is going to get a portable crib at the resort, so that’s one less (and very large) thing I’ll have to drag along.  And my sister is going to meet me at the airport in DC, so getting to the car will be totally manageable!

We had a huge family chat online over this and who is driving who where and when from which airport to where, and I feel like I definitely came out better off.  Mom, AC, Emily, Abby were all very helpful and lovely–thank you so much!  It’s so nice to be able to problem-solve with helpful family.  You guys are awesome!
