baby food, baby food spoons, a bib, a washcloth, diapers, diaper wipes, diaper cream, baby pajamas, burp cloth, a onesie, a pair of socks, blankie, two stuffed animals for sleeping, a new toy, three old toys, a pack-n-play for sleeping, quilted sheet for pack-n-play, humidifier to drown out the noise from dinner so baby can sleep, jacket, hat, warm blanket for carrying sleeping baby to car at end of night.
This is what we needed:
baby food, baby food spoon, bib, diaper, pajamas, blankie, and the pack-n-play.
Jett fell asleep at our friend's place promptly at 8:00, and we had to wake him up to take him home. He smiled the whole way home in the car, fell asleep as soon as we laid him in his crib, and didn't wake up until 7:00 in the morning. It's just ironic that the one time Jett sleeps through the night is the night that we have to wake him up just to get him home - and Charlie and I don't get to bed until 1:00 in the morning.
Go figure.

Amy,
I loved this little description of a night out with baby in tote, especially the list of items brought as opposed to the actual ones needed. Mike and I used to bring that much with Abby. With Noah, we mastered the actual needed list. With Matthew, we're lucky if we even remember a diaper! Wait till you take a week long trip with three children some day - you're list will multiply in seconds!
And yes, they always decide to sleep through the night when you decide to stay up, and vice versa. It's amazing!
Rebecca and Mike
