Problem: Grocery shopping with 2 babies

Solution: One baby secured in front; one resting in her carrier;
one happy mom with groceries to feed her family. 

To be honest, I did not think of this myself and I am not sure how long it would have taken me to figure it out. Thankfully, one afternoon, I was headed to the grocery store with my little ones in tow. I had Calan up in front and Maisie resting in the cart. It worked, but it left little to no space for groceries. That was until I saw another mother with 2 little ones one day and she had it all figured out. Don't rest the baby in the cart, but on the cart. 

I understand that I will probably get comments about how unsafe this is and how I should just go by myself after my husband gets home. But here is why this works for me:

1. I am exhausted by the time my husband gets home from work and the kids are in bed. The last thing that I want to do is head out to the grocery store. I want to do the dinner dishes and then relax. 
2. Weekends are meant for family time. I don't want to spend some of that precious time grocery shopping, which I hate doing by the way. 
3. I am not pushing the cart 90 mph down a dirt road. Everything is a smooth surface.

I am sure mothers of multiples and other babies close in age have found different answers to this problem, but this is the one that works for us now. There will be a time when Maisie is too large for her carrier and this solution will become null and void, but for now it works.
