FAMILY TRAVEL GEAR

I'll be completing the travel gear (i.e. clothes, equipment, etc.) that my family needs.  We travel often, and we especially like weekend getaways.  I am terrible with unpacking, and my husband and I would often be missing shirts and pants which are still stowed away in our suitcases.  My solution: separate travel clothes!  Hehe.  I also know that we'll be having another little boy soon, so I have "little brother" in my chart here.
