I went to TRU, which has a BRU in it after my fun visit this morning, and I could not put both kids in the cart...ugh! They had the super skinny carts, so the carrier would not fit in the main part of the cart. I found this to be odd. So, I left...I ended up at BRU later, without kids, and of course they have the super huge carts. I did not have the double stroller with me or I would've used that, but I did not think that I would need it.
how annoying! you'd think they'd have ginormo carts at TRU. FWIW.. with narrow carts I always put Natalie's carrier horizontal across the top of the big cart part. Its not ideal.. and I don't like to go through parking lots like that but inside the store its pretty sturdy.
Once natalie is out of the carrier I'm really unsure of how I'll shop. i will need to use those big carts with the benches everywhere because I refuse to let Eve sit in the big part of the cart or walk in most stores.

And strangely, that store doesn't even have a changing station! There is a 2 ft space of hard, flat, slippery counter next to the sinks in the bathroom that says changing station, but I would rather change my kids on the dirty floor than that spot.

I initally tried this but our carrier would not sit well, and with Evan being the boy that he is, I didn't want to chance it . Oh well, I got to wonder around by myself at BRU later on in the day instead....
