Noah will be about 5 months when we move, so I am planning on keeping all the things I need for him together and putting them straight into the car (a packed bag of clothes, nappies, bouncer, playmat etc) so I dont have to wait at the other end for boxes to arrive.
I clean and fill all his bottles with water in the morning so they are all ready to go, a couple of them I will heat up and keep in a small esky so I dont have to worry about how to reheat them.
I have a port-a-cot for him to use, as well as his pram although I doubt he will sleep much that day with all the people around etc.
Once the boys arrive, my priority will be to get all the things I need for Noah organised first while they do everything else. He is a pretty relaxed bub, so he will be happy to watch all the goings on while sitting in his bouncer.
Generally though with moving (I have done it far to much) I find it easier to
-make sure I have lots of boxes
-dont over pack boxes, or have boxes that are to big.. they just get to heavy
-mark all boxes clearly
-dont mix up whats in the boxes for example dont mix bedroom stuff with lounger stuff, so much easier when it comes to unpacking.
-get as much as possible packed in boxes, in a spare room or shed ready to be go. Having them all in the one spot helps when you can just say everything in that room/shed is ready to go on the truck iykwim
-dismantal what you can before the day, i.e spare beds etc
umm thats about all for now! If I think of anything else I will pop back in : )
