Since becoming a mom, my approach to everything (and I do mean everything) has changed...even my car! Here are a few things that I do to make life easier!
There's a bottle of hand sanitizer in every door. It's easy to squirt and sanitize quickly when getting in the car with dirty hands. I sanitize after pumping gas, grocery shopping, etc. I also wash Addi's hands with "fast soap" after I get her buckled in when I pick her up from school.
The bag in the driver's side door acts as my trashcan. It's a great catch-all for kleenex, gum wrappers, straw trash, etc. It doesn't hold a lot, but it's a better place for trash than my cup holder! This is actually a pencil holder from the school supply isle at Target.
I also found this idea recently. I'm sure I'll upgrade to this when I need something to hold more trash, but for now I'd rather not have something to roll around on the floor. It's a great idea though!
On Halle's side of the car, I have her diaper bag in the floorboard. You can get my diaper bag list of essentials HERE.
On Addison's side of the car, I have my purple car tub in the floorboard. It also acts as a great step stool so she can get in her carseat alone! I have a seat organizer on the passenger's seat too. I really don't like this one a whole lot, but it keeps the shoe scuffs off the leather. It's Eddie Bauer from Target. It only has 1 pocket and I'd prefer one that has multiple pockets. I'll keep looking.
