Monday Mommy Tip: Traveling

As those of you who follow me on twitter (@BabyMakesChaos) know, we had quite the adventure coming home from Michigan this past Sunday. This recent travel (9 hours in the car, one way... without stopping) gave me some insight on how to get things to go more smoothly in the future.

ALICIA'S MOMMY TIPS ON TRAVELING
1. When able, travel by night or when your child is most likely to sleep. The red-eye driving out to Michigan was tough the next day [for the adults] but we only had to stop for gas mid-transit. Plus we avoided most of the construction.
2. Bring something that plays movies. Not only is this invaluable on a plane or in a car, it's incredibly helpful if you're in a hotel room and need to get ready for an event but don't want your small child sticking their fingers in the electrical outlet. Dig?
3. Ask for a refrigerator. 99% of the hotels I've stayed at will give you one if you ask. This is clutch for food, medicine, water, and alcohol. 
4. I've discovered the more that I travel with Olivia, the more I need the following tucked away in the luggage: scissors (do NOT put these in carry-on bags!), baggies, plastic [grocery] bags, travel tissues, travel wipes. You'll figure out why in due time.

For those 45 minutes when your child is screaming, "I want my toy back!" at the top of her lungs, do yourself a favor and bring noise-cancelling headphones... or drugs - OTC, of course. :-)

  1. Nutrix Slim Keto Many people do not realize how significant water is for weight loss, but it is very important. When you start to lose more and more weight, the cells in your body will eject lots of toxins into your bloodstream. Water is needed by your body to carry the toxins away. Additionally, water is a necessary component of metabolism.

  2. of course! This is a question that many players care about. As far as I am concerned, there are generally two choices. One is to slowly level up to get Maplestory M Mesos in the game, one is to buy on the website. But in most cases I still choose to buy on the website, I chose the MMOAH website. Although there are many players and websites selling online, the players will search on the Google homepage. But their safety is not guaranteed, and often it is not the lowest price. I chose MMOAH based on my years of experience and Google's ranking. Their website has been in business for many years, and I think their website's product quality, transaction speed, delivery security and service attitude are among the best in the industry. My friends and I are buying at https://www.mmoah.com/maplestory-m-mesos
