Four days until we leave for the beach!

This year my husband and I are taking our children to the beach for a four day vacation. We went last year, though we were invited down last minute to stay with his aunt and uncle, so we didn't have a lot of time to pack and plan. As a result, we wound up running to Target the night before to pick up sunscreen and beach toys, and I was up until 2am packing, and we didn't go to bed until after 3am.

This year? Things are being done SO differently. It may only be Monday night (we leave Friday morning), but I already have the beach bags packed with sunscreen, swim diapers, beach towels and beach toys. Tomorrow I am going to pack up clothing for both kids (thank god baby clothes and toddler clothes are so small; I can easily cram a dozen outfits into a small duffel bag!), and on Wednesday I'm going to pack up our stuff. Then all that's left do is pack up the car Thursday evening, and run out the last minute things -- toiletries, digital camera, laptops -- on Friday morning!

Are you guys going to beach this year? If so, I highly recommend packing ahead of time... you'll thank yourselves for it later! :)
