It’s probably due to the fact my two oldest were both raised as only children, but I had so much freedom. I took both of them everywhere I went. After Cannon and Cruiz, my outings came to a stop. Its been a struggle for me, I’ve felt very cooped up. I’m sure every twin mom, or anyone who has had their kids close together in age can relate, and will probably agree that shopping with your kids can be complete chaos! With the change of cold weather, I’ve wanted to take my kids with me, instead of going by myself after I put them to bed, but I was hesitant because of the past.
First attempt. 
(Ledger was thrilled to lose his spot to his younger brother :)
It didn’t go so well.
Now that the twins are older there’s no way they are going to stay put in a moby wrap. I’ve tried putting one in the cart without being strapped down, and let’s just say I didn’t even finish my shopping before I left the store.
Second attempt.
I hauled their booster seat into the store. Though Cruiz was strapped down, I had no where to put anything. And Cruiz opened nearly every package I put on top of him. The lady who checked us out, wasn’t thrilled… oops :)
After posting on instagram, a few people shared with me the most genius product!
The Buggy Bench - designed by a twin mom.
For the first time, my shopping trip went really well. (Other than my three year old throwing a tantrum on the ground…) But we all left with smiles, and that’s a first. All you desperate momma’s wanting to get out, the Buggy Bench is going to change your life.
Things I love about my Buggy Bench
- Cannon could not escape.
- Super quick and easy to attach to the cart with 4 convenient straps.
- It hangs so I can put groceries underneath my child’s feet, this is a big deal.
- It folds down flat, and easily stores in my car. That way if I ever have to unexpectedly stop I’ll have it with me.
- It’s machine washable.
- My only negative comment is that I was stopped every few seconds for people to ask what it was and where I got it! :) But that’s nothing new, people stop me to look at my twins all the time.
I just wanted to share just in case there are any other desperate mom’s out there.
I’d definitely recommend the Buggy Bench to anyone.
I ’m thrilled to be able to take my kids and get everyone out of the house this winter.
