can't forget the important things

this go round, the game of packing is giving me a little bit of a headache. we are moving into an apartment in pearland first to make sure we like the area before committing to a house. well, because of that, not all of our stuff is coming with us. so i have that fun task of trying to decide what i really do and do not need and making sure i have accurate notes about what is in what box so me, bret, little B and the pups actually end up with the items we need and not our reject pile. definitely a whole lot easier when i can just throw everything in boxes and worry about the sorting process later. but alas, here i am. so what is the most important item(s) i have packed so far?

that would be these two wicker baskets stuffed full of little B's books! i don't want to leave a single one behind. she will need story time while we are in our apartment and i don't want her brain and imagination to suffer - every kid deserves their books with them at all times. just my opinion.
