It seems like I have been piling the kids in and out of the car more often than usual lately.
My car definitely can tell the difference.
A lot more goldfish and empty coffee cups on the floor.
I like to reward myself with caffeine after a successful trip out of the house.
It can be overwhelming sometimes taking two toddlers out alone.
That is why God invented Amazon Prime!
But for those things you have to venture out of your house for, I have listed a few tips of how I make it through all my errands with my Lee Littles!
Here are a few must haves for when I am on the go with two toddlers!
I have always kept a bag in the car {as well as packing a diaper bag} because when I'm just running to the grocery or taking Ulric to daycare it is nice to not have to carry another bag to the car everyday, I already have to remember the kids!
I keep an extra water bottle, baby wipes, Boogie wipes, hand sanitizer, sunscreen, Tylenol with a syringe, and a variety of teethers. {Anyone else have an fussy teething baby?}
I have another Thirty-One organizer inside of the zip top tote {again, I am OCD} that holds each kids diapers, and a change of clothes because well have you seen my daughter - she can get a bit messy!
So, I like to have the car diaper bag for running around our small town but I do take my regular diaper bag when going to the city or when I have appointments.
Where we currently live, it takes about forty-five minutes to an hour to get to a anywhere with a real store or the doctors.

Curious about what's in my diaper bag? Well that is a whole other blog post! LOL Leave me a comment if you'd like the details! |
It is the Skip Hop Chelsea Downtown Chic Backpack. I am obsessed with it. Definitely a must with two kiddos to have a backpack diaper bag I feel and this one has so many pockets! It also has straps to attach to a stroller.
The kids each have an Amazon Kids Kindle tablet. We download a few of their favorite shows and movies and when on the go, they get their screen time and mommy sometimes gets a quiet car ride.
I found this family owned business who makes our Car Seat Cinemas for attaching to the seats headrest. You just put the Kindle in the pocket and you are good to go! Even have hooks that you can put on the carts at Target or the grocery!
I love supporting smaller businesses and when I first ordered one for just Ulric, they ran out of the print I had originally wanted so, they sent me another free one for the inconvenience!
I make up the kids snack catchers before heading out, grab a few yogurt pouches, fill their sippy cups, make an extra bottle for Sawyer and us Lee's are ready to rock and roll!
Let me know if you have any more tips while out with your kiddos, like I always say, us parents have to stick together!
Happy Friday!
Hope you all have a great weekend!
xoxo
