Driving with a toddler

Two essentials when traveling by car with a toddler- 1) sippy cup with water, and 2) Tupperware filled with fruit (i.e., grapes, chopped up apples, raisins).

(Btw - if you see a sippy cup like this one, don't buy it. I threw the whole batch out that I got from Costco as soon as I realized they make everything taste like plastic.)

Astrid doesn't want to wear the shoulder straps anymore. Luckily the child car seat we purchased for her has a lap belt as well, and is locked in for more protection.
