Packing the kids luggage

We'll be traveling to Penang by road on this coming weekend to attend a wedding function, and also visiting the island.

This would also be my 1st time traveling with both kids and I'm a bit excited. I have already prepared a checklist so that I won't miss out anything when packing the kids luggage. For Dillon it is much easier as he no longer takes milk and is diaper-free during day time. Anyway, these are the thing I've listed down:

- Sufficient outfits & diapers for 3 days 2 nights
- Shoes, socks & hats
- Baby wipes & diaper changing mat
- Baby bath & lotion
- Inflatable travel bathtub (for Kaith)
- Potty seat (for Dillon)
- Towels, handkerchiefs & bibs
- Milk powder, milk bottles, thermos flask, water bottle, cereals, feeding bowl & spoon (for Kaith)
- Water tumbler (for Dillon)
- Snacks, some small toys & books
- Sunscreen lotion
- Swim wear, swim ring, beach ball & beach toy play sets
- Antiseptic cream for mosquito bites & nappy cream (in case)
- The light weight umbrella stroller

Did I miss out anything essential?

Ya Bobo I have thought of the sterilizer but I think too many thing to bring la, haha so I can save on this, will just use hot water to rinse it for that 3 days... should be fine. :)

Tell me bout it Ann, I have packed the kids stuff last night and it's already one bag full. Me & hubby have to try to stuff our things into one bag cause I don't want to carry more than 2 bags, no space in the car liao...... Somemore have to hand carry the milk powder, thermos flask etc leh? Scary......:P

Nvm la if Dillon has "emergency call", can just pull over by the roadside and let him pee? haha lol Btw, the last time we brought him to Kluang, about 3 hours plus drive, no problem at all. :)
