You have just pulled into the garage. You have a sleeping 2-year-old and a should-be-sleeping 6-month-old in the car. You also have a car full of groceries.
Once the 2-year-old wakes up he will not go back to sleep. The 6-month-old can be breastfed or formula fed. He prefers formula. There is no bottle prepared. The groceries include perishables and frozen items. If the 2-year-old stays in his carseat too long he will wake up. If you leave the 6 month-old in the carseat for more than 45 seconds he will scream. If you leave the groceries on the kitchen floor or counter the dog will eat the meat, and probably most of the snacks.
You need to put the groceries away and get the kids to sleep so that you can have time to work out / read / nap / stare at the wall / whatever.
So what order do you do these things in? How do you DEAL?
Please use only a #2 pencil and write only in the provided space. You have 20 minutes. GO!

I'm no expert, but what i'd probably do, is bring the kids in first, dump them in a place where they can scream if it comes to that, but where they can't get into too much trouble while you put the groceries away. Yes, screaming kids are annoying, but so is melted ice cream.
