Out and About

Okay, so I know all you mothers and fathers of multiple children are going to be laughing at this, but this was a feat for me. I took both girls, a 24 month old and a 2 month old, to Kroger today - by myself. G rode in the cart and I wore M in her sling. M was awake for the 1st half of the store and then crashed the 2nd half. G was a big helper-she held the shopping list for me and held it up for me when I needed to see it. At one point, she wanted to hold M in the cart with her. I was amazed how smooth it went with both of them. While I was unloading the car when we got home, G got a blanket and covered up Madeline and put her baby doll in the car seat next to her. When I took off the blanket to take M out of her car seat I saw that G had put her Snuggie in the car seat also. What a sweet big sister G is! Here is the picture of M with her "gifts" from her great sister - you can't see Snuggie because it is under the blanket. For those of you that know how G is with her Snuggie it is a tremendous thing that she shared Snuggie with anyone.

Congrats on making it with both girls. Whenever my time comes to have two children out at the same time I'll be calling on you.
When do you go back to work?
