AITA for checking my daughters' bags after my husband packed them?

My (36F) husband (39M) and I are going on a brief vacation with our daughters (twins, 5 yo). My husband packed their suitcases the day before we were set to leave because he was excited and wanted to get a head start.<br><br>When he was done, I wanted to double check to make sure everything was there. He was irritated that I didn't trust him and thought I was being hard on him for no reason. I tried to explain it's an important trip and I want to make sure the girls have everything they need. He said I was making a big deal out of it.<br><br>I insisted on checking the bags and found that he had packed my work laptop and some files instead of the twins' tablet that they use to watch cartoons in case they get bored during the trip. I told him to repack the bags.<br><br>He looked at me smugly and said I could have avoided "making him do extra work" if I had trusted him and not insisted on double-checking. I explained that as a working mother, I need to ensure the girls have what they need so I can focus on work on the vacation. He still thinks I'm making a big deal out of the mistake and that I don't trust him.<br><br>AITA?
