Just another family with screaming kids in Target

Encouraged by our first successful outing on Monday, we decided to try another one yesterday. Lunch went fairly well, but the trip to Target was one of screaming children. The two older ones were in the side-by-side double stroller. For a while, N was screaming how she didn't want K touching her. (Even though it's annoying, it's so funny to me that they do this--so cliche. K starts screaming in the car if N touches her car seat. N starts screaming if K touches her in the stroller.)

After that, we had little T start fussing because she was starving. I could have left the store and taken her out to the car to feed her, but I decided that sitting down in the baby section would be easier and faster. So I did. After having nursed 3 babies, I'm pretty good at being discreet. It was kind of funny though because as soon as I sat down to nurse her, the baby section seemed to have more people in it. Most of them looked to be grandmotherly types buying clothes.

More screaming ensued when we were trying out a double stroller. First K was screaming because she was bored. Then we put K in the double stroller to see how she fit with the car seat in it. She was happy. Then N started whining that she needed to ride in the stroller too. After testing it, neither N or K wanted to go back in our double stroller. More screaming.

Yup that was us.... The family with too many screaming kids at Target. I feel like we're going to be a circus act where ever we go. At least they are cute.
