We are taking our first family vacation in a few weeks and I would love any advice or words of wisdom anyone could offer on taking the twins on the road. We are spending a week in the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area in a cabin with my family, so we will have lots of help there, but are on our own for the car ride. Is there anything you would definately take for the car or once we are there? Any advice for the drive? They are 3 months old and ride in the car very well. They are bottle fed, so if anyone has any good ideas on how to warm a bottle on the road, that would be great. I have a list going as to what to bring, but DH and I feel like we are missing something. Thanks for your help!

" I went on vacation 2 weeks after my twins were born. We just made sure they were very full as we left. And we had just in case the pre filled formula so we could just pull over and give it to them. I am also breast feeding but that would be to hard when your on the road. Good luck and have fun. "

" We use the premade nursettes for formula when we are traveling. They are so convenient because you don't have to worry about heating up anything. I know Enfamil makes them, not sure if Similac does. I think the bottles are 6 ounces so we always took along a small cooler so we could store any unused portion. Hopefully they will sleep for most of the car ride for you! "
