I have big big news. I found the solution to our never-ending kid drop-off/pickup commute routine drudgery. I’m talking about our new biking habit, which I’m loving every minute of.

We bought bike seats for the girls—the UrRider Child Bike Seat for Emma and the Thule Yepp Maxi Child Bike Seat for Lucy—and it’s honestly the best thing we’ve purchased in a long time. We have no more frustrating getting-the-girls-in-the-car sagas. No more stroller-boredom breakdowns either. There are no more stressful daycare-parking-lot hustles, and no more sucking Cheerios out of car seats with dust busters.
