I've started to come around to realizing that the van isn't the size it is because of the number of kids, it's because the thing should be packed full of "emergency" supplies so that you CAN grab the kid and run somewhere (within view of the van).

So far it's mainly a change of clothes (for everyone!), diapers, pacifiers, bottles, and water, but that's going to grow.
