They just don't make carts suitable for 2 children, one of infant size and one of toddler size. With that in mind, I decided to take both boys and brave Target. Normally I strap down Sam in the front, and Matthew wobbles about in the back of the cart. However, when we were getting situated to sit down, the lady next to me had both of her boys in the back of the cart and Sam thought that looked like a good idea. So against my prior experiences with Sam in the back, I thought I would give him another try.
He was perfect sitting in the back as I whip myself around Target. I had to get the usual but this time I had to get some feminie products. Like everything else we bought, I handed to to Sam and he just put it next to him. So...I got down the feminie products aisle, gave Sam my feminie products and he put them next to him. I was so happy that Sam did such a good job, hey the thoughts of: I can come to Target anytime now went through my head.
So...we get to the check out, some very young highschool guy was checking us out, I go to grab all the stuff from Sam and OH MY...I was SOOOO embarrassed. I really couldn't see him in the back of the cart because Matthews car seat sits so tall, and the feminie products were my last stop, Sam had took it upon himself to OPEN the box of Always panty liners and STICK THEM ALL OVER HIMSELF. My mouth opened WIDE as I looked at him and he said, "Mommy, stickers".

Oh my goodness, you need to write that story into some children's magazine. That is the best story that I have ever heard!! I can only imagine how red your face was!! So what kind of cart do you get say if you happen to have 3 kids that need to be strapped in? Or does one have to find the stores that are open 24 hours? Just a though?
Gary and I have not laughed this hard in a while. Gary wants to know did you have your camera, because that picture would be priceless!!!!!
