Josh's 72 hour Kit!

It's been a crazy week and I finally have a few minutes to post. I'm just going to list the items in Josh's kit and if any explanation is needed I'll place it next to the item on the list. Easiest way for me to do it, and believe me, there is a lot in his kit! I'll go picture by picture, so sorry if each item isn't in it's proper category. Let's get started!

9 snack cracker packages - his crackers and half of Ella's
2 packages gummy snacks
Swedish fish - Daddy's need a treat too!
comb - because I forgot to photograph it with the other hygiene products
2 packages peanuts
2 squeezable applesauce
1 crackers and cheese
2 packages ramen noodles - his and Rora's
2 monster slim jims - his and Rora's
2 granola bars
1 water bottle with a high quality filter

4 2 liter water bottles - his, Rora's, Ella's and one extra 'community' water.
1 16.9oz water bottle
crystal light flavor packets
Spark flavor packets - these have caffeine and sometimes Daddy (and Mommy) can use a jolt!

2 soup at hand - his and Rora's
1 cooking fuel
2 spaghetti and meatballs - his and Rora's
2 spaghettios - extra for everyone
3 cans of corn - His, Rora's and Ella's
3 cans of fruit cocktail (small) - his and Rora's
1 can of fruit cocktail (large) - extra for everyone

first aid kit including:
1 poncho - 2 more will be added but the last time I went to the store they were out
antiseptic wipes
alcohol pads
medications
bandages
band aids
ointment
burn cream
cold compress
latex gloves
q-tips
sticks
Kleenex's
chap stick
iodine drops and iodine neutralizer - these aren't the safest way to sterilize water, however, the point is to keep you alive in the short term. The benefits of clean water to me outweigh the risk of possible complications in the future. Especially since they take up such a small amount of space in the pack.

10 diapers - size 2. Rather have them to big than to small!
wet wipes
change of clothing for Josh - don't forget the long socks!
2 sleepers for Ella - again, it's much easier to cut fabric off if it's hot than have double clothing, or go cold. These are size 3-6 month so I will need to change them out in the fall...along with changing out the diapers.
1 wrap - 6 yards of fabric. This is one way I carry my babies. I put the fabric option in the kit for a few reasons. It's the most inexpensive option and since I am not using it on a daily basis I don't want to spend a lot of money. It also adds an extra layer of closeness as the swaddling keeps baby close to Mom. There is extra warmth in the winter with the extra fabric that can also be used as a blanket if necessary. I can also carry Rora with it and have multiple carrying options. Front, back (2 back options) and hip carry.

Kleenex
flashlight & batteries
deodorant
pocket knife
lighters
waterproof matches
toothpaste & toothbrush
spoon
3 emergency candles
sunscreen
money - 1 $20, 1 $10, 2 $5's, 10 $1's and a roll of quarters
bullets for both guns - rather than having to make sure you have bullets it's easier to keep extra in our kit. That way if we ever needed to leave all Josh would have to grab extra would be our 2 guns.

Contact information for family out of state (Including a list of family members who have a ham radio, their call signs and where they are located.)

Josh also has a seperate small bag with all of his emergency communication items. The portable ham radio, extra batteries, etc.

As an extra note, remember to pack each item in a waterproof bag or container so in case of wet weather it is still usable.
