i NEED to get out of my house...where can i go with 3 small kids??
im going stir crazy! where can i go with 2 month old twins and a toddler??
are there any stores with shopping carts big enough to fit 2 infant carriers in the cart and put my 2 1/2 year old in the seat part? i was wondering if costco carts are big enough? i told my husband i need to just get out during the day, i dont care if i walk aimlessly around a store! ive gone out with them to pick up groceries at shoprite just to get out of the house, but its not long enough.
and having my daughter walk holding my hand is not even an option, shes a wild one.
both my parents and husbands parents work so i cant even go there to hang out.
im hoping this cold weather ends soon bc i cant stand being stuck inside any longer, i have not left my house since thursday

Can you put one of the twins directly in the double stroller with your older child? Then you could wear a wrap with the other twin in it and push the stroller with the other two... sigh.... it's rough! I don't think a Costco cart would be big enough for all 3... but you could do both infant carriers in one cart and your older DD in the other cart.... I've done the push one cart, pull the other... less than ideal, but it gets you out of the house! :)
or what about a store that has the car thing for your older DD to sit in and then you can put both carriers in the cart? Im sorry I dont know which store has that, but maybe that would be an option? good luck!!!

wear one twin and put the toddler and the other twin in the stroller out of the infant carrier. A costo/bjs cart should be big enough to put one infant carrier in the body of the cart, wear the other twin and toddler in the seat.
Mine are 17 months and I can still out them in the seat together (single or double cart) but I always bring a carrier incase baby A gets rambunctious and is not safe in the cart.
You will figure it out! getting out of the house is so important!!
Wana come to my house!! we live in insanity lol

Does your double stroller recline? You could probably put a twin in a seat fully reclined maybe with some blankets to keep him/her in place. Then have your toddler in another seat and wear the other twin.
Good luck...I am sure you will feel so much better just knowing you can do it...even if it is just a trip to target.

When I go to target I push my twins in their stroller with one hand and pull my shopping cart with my other hand. You could push your stroller and pull the shopping cart with the toddler at just about any big store :o)

I honestly live at Costco with my 21 month old twins and 3 year old! They all fit in the cart and when they were infants the seats both locked on the top!

I would put one twin in the bjorn, the other in the double stroller, then older child in the other seat of the double stroller. Then we'd go to IKEA. The aisles are wide, my older daughter loved the children's section (I never left her in the babysitting zone/thing -just not my thing). There are specific rooms where you can nurse and change your babies. The cafe has baby food, wipes, bibs, they will heat your baby food. . . and they have free diapers. I was there once and ran out of diapers. When they gave me diapers I just about knocked the guy down, I hugged him so hard. I went there A LOT.
