Prep for the Berlin trip

In the process of applying for Sam and Maries Austrian passports and stuff we had to go to Berlin basically to prove that they exist or something like that. It was a crazy trip and with the right preparation it turned out to be a lot of fun and not too expensive. :) Oh, I love trains especially the ones with kiddie compartments!

We decided to plan out what we were going to take to survive the day with the two kids. As we thought about it we decided to take out super stroller and boy are we glad we did. It was so nice to have and as you can see from the pictures when collapsed down it really isn't much bigger than the other stroller. It was easy to collapse and put back together and it held our stuff (diapers for the day, food, extra clothes, etc) and the babies so it was perfect for the trip! :)


This is the new ritual called babies sleep well dance. Yup, in hopes that the two would sleep well and get there quickly so they could be rested for the 6am departure the next morning and not be screaming the whole trip because they are too tired to cope with anything dance. I think Arnold did a great job, and for the most part it was a very successful dance. Maybe we should have him do it on a more regular basis. :)
