I recently posted a photo on Instagram of all three girls on the way to school dropoff, and I received a lot of questions about which model of car I was driving, our car seat setup and which brand of car seats I used for each of the girls. I thought it would be helpful to share how I tote everyone around, but before I begin, I want to disclose that this is a sponsored blog post. I also want to share that I first reached out to Chicco (versus them to me) and that we’ve used Chicco car seats for the past five years. I am very loyal to this brand and have never experienced any issues or had any concerns with our girls’ car seats. I’m honored to work with them to bring you this post. As always, thank you for supporting the brands we absolutely love!

When I was pregnant with Emilia, I began to worry about how I would load both girls into the car (Isla was a very active 2.5 year old when her sister was born). I kept asking myself: “Who gets put in first: the baby or the toddler?”

Then, when I was pregnant with Georgie, I had all the concerns about all things car related: How will we fit in my crossover SUV? Who do I load first? Do I trust Isla to buckle herself if I can’t see what she’s doing in a third row? Will Emilia forever complain about being in the car? Ha.

Fortunately, the transition to three kids in the car has gone smoothly for the most part, with a car ride here and there that was less than ideal (the crying kid trigger effect!). The four questions I’ve received most often about our car configuration are listed below!
