But now I can understand the time issue, especially , I can only imagine, with two kids. <br /><br />I'm sure yousamwiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14603105182885110841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2514215561878490512.post-73967714412373013912014-03-05T16:37:30.408-05:002014-03-05T16:37:30.408-05:00If it makes you feel any better, we also haven'...If it makes you feel any better, we also haven't done baby books for the kids. In fact, we never even finished Ian's pregnancy journal. I figure the blog is a good substitute. :) My mom finished my baby book when I was like 20. LOL.<br /><br />That's great that the Bean is staying home for a while. It will take some getting used to, but I know you'll be fine.

Our kids are super-familiar with the Science Centre, so I'd actually be okay with braving that one solo, but I don't think I'll be going any other "big" places on my own. It'd be nice if it were warm enough to take them to the park by then. :/ And I think The Bean will end up with more screen time than usual when he's home with me, but at least Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15441044988830815964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2514215561878490512.post-68891167016764679522014-03-05T10:39:49.678-05:002014-03-05T10:39:49.678-05:00Thanks Lara!

Funny how that is. I guess we're just so set in our routines that I worry. Our son does know his name, but not his phone number, but the bracelet suggestion is a great one. Naptimes will probably be harder, since Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15441044988830815964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2514215561878490512.post-79683927880793095472014-03-05T09:11:38.092-05:002014-03-05T09:11:38.092-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01492898465897070415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2514215561878490512.post-8268018586002349392014-03-05T09:11:26.344-05:002014-03-05T09:11:26.344-05:00If you go out, given their ages, I'd pick a sm...If you go out, given their ages, I'd pick a small place. Like I wouldn't do the Science Centre, for instance. Small play places are pretty easy with two little ones.<br /><br />Use your phone or the tv to sidetrack the Bean while you put Sprout down. Do whatever it takes. Use her nap time to give him some special one-on-one time.<br /><br />It won't be bad, I promise. :)<br /><br />I Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01492898465897070415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2514215561878490512.post-44368272456149491212014-03-05T04:50:32.463-05:002014-03-05T04:50:32.463-05:00Although I'm not a parent, I am a nanny to 3 g...Although I'm not a parent, I am a nanny to 3 gorgeous children (7 months, 2 years and 4 years). Taking multiple kids out in public can be daunting to start with but it does get easier! The best advice I can give you is to make sure older children know their and your first and last name and phone number if possible, if not write it on a bracelet for them or even on some paper and tuck it into Larahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08937439587404782327noreply@blogger.com
