[quote=Anonymous]Have beed doing something similar (mid move - stayed with relatives a few days, then moved into a (small) rental with a trailer of 'short term' items and the rest of our stuff arrives in 2 weeks.  Anyway, thoughts for the hotel portion:
-plan a 'short term' packig list in advance
-in additon to clothes, plan to bring some boxes of kids toys.  assuming you're in toy overload like us, pack these NOW. they'll be ready to go when you need them, and will seem fresh/fun again when the kids open the boxes. our kids are a bit older (2.5 & 5) but I packed some books, puzzles, magnatiles, and art supplies. And I got a couple inexpensive new toys to pull out.
-Plan to bring some items (bedding, stuffed animals, etc.) from the kids rooms to make it feel more familiar
- For meals, most extended stay hotels have the basic supplies. so you should be good with pasta level meals. just keep it simple and you'll be fine.
-for activities, would your nanny be comfortable taking kids to a pool if the hotel has one? If you don't already have one, the puddle jumper is GREAT to let a toddler be able to play in he pool (it's a USCG approve floatation device.) obviously need to still very closelt monitor kids, but I did find it made it manageable for me to bring both an infant and toddler to the pool at the same time.
-For other activities - what does your nanny do with kids now/what are the indoor options? I'm not familar with MoCo, bu maybe you can find a hotel with close proximity to a Little Gym or other indoor facility. Walking distance to library would be good to, and some kind of playground for nice days.

Good luck! And I totally get he frustration, but I bet the hotel part will be less painful than you think.[/quote]
