David, Lisa, Kayla, Isaac & Annika

So... it is hard to get out of the house with 2 kids! I typically try to nurse Isaac just before we go somewhere, so I have the maximum time out without having to nurse him (then I don’t have to worry about wearing a nursing shirt, finding a place to nurse him and figuring out what to do with Kayla while I nurse him!). So, after he's done I put him in his car seat. He immediately spits up so I put him in with an extra bib in my hand because I know I will immediately have to change it. Sometimes he spits up so much that I have to change his outfit too. I buckle him in so he's ready to go. Then I get Kayla to go to the bathroom before we leave, have to fight her to put her underwear back on, then have her put her shoes on as I pack up a drink and a snack for her (thank goodness she is at least able to go to the bathroom and put her shoes on all by herself!). When I turn my back, she’s climbed into the car seat and is hugging Isaac and trying to give him toys. I remind her to put on her shoes. I do her hair, do my hair, and then make sure the diaper bag is stocked with wipes, diapers, burp clothes and extra bibs for Isaac and a change of clothes for both kids. Then I have to tell Kayla to switch her shoes because they are inevitably on the wrong feet! Then Isaac fills his pants and I have to pull him out of the car seat, change his diaper and get him back in (at which point he spits up again, thus requiring another bib change). And by this time, Kayla has taken her shoes back off and pulled the bow out of her hair and we have to start the process again! :) Obviously it's not always like this, but sometimes I feel like they gang up against me so that it's nearly impossible for me to get out of the house!

Can anyone else relate??!!
