This group needs a revival. 
Having twins, I found myself thinking about something I haven't thought about before - how do I get them in and out of the car from home? My car is out in the drive way (my garage is full of crap) so when we go out (and we go out everyday because to drive big brother to school) I don't want to buckle one in the car and then go and get the other one. What if someone sees my car open and decide to take my baby?! I know, I'm paranoid. And then there's the heat. If I get one in the car without the key in, while I get the other one, it'll be very very hot in there. But I if I leave the key in, someone can just drive off with the car.
So here's what I've been doing. I have an extra stroller that I have in the garage. I take Thing 1 and put her in the stroller in the garage. And then quickly go back in the house to get Thing 2. With Thing 2, I can go ahead and put her in the car seat while still be within earshot and eye-sight of Thing 1. 
Problem solved. I guess if someone really wants to take my car I can't do anything to stop it, but at least I would be able to witness the whole thing. |
