A new habit I'm working on is to ask myself what I can bring with me when I go out (aside from all the usual baby/kid paraphernalia). Here are some examples of things I want to remember to bring with me...
* Shopping bags - Pretty much got this one down
* Produce bags - I've started re-using the plastic produce bags for produce and bulk items
* Empty containers - ie lotion bottle, that I will want to refill
* Bags to recycle at grocery store
* Stuff to drop off at thrift stores consignment shops
* Any returns, etc. that I can bring with me to consolidate trips while I'm out and about
So now it only takes me 2 hours to get out the door, but I'm sure it will get better!

It may take you two hours ot get out, but at least you only have to go out once! And once you get it down, you can shave a good 10 minutes off - ha ha (I am still accounting for the two boy time :-) ) Thanks for the tip. I still have to get the shopping bag thing down. I am going to put one in my car for the spur of the moment trips, one in Avery's stroller for the market walks, and we are hanging hooks for the others to hang by the back door. Right now we have been storing them in a cabinet... no wonder I forget them!
