How old is the other one? Maybe you could have her leave dcks' stuff at dc so a diaper bag wouldn't be necessary then she's got 2 hands to bring them out. It's going to be a hard habit to stop without making her wonder why. But yeh, that would annoy me too. 2 1/2 yo should be walking in and out along with sibling. Maybe you could start a conversation like 'to make this more convenient for both of us, why don't we plan on leaving diapers/wipes/extra clothes(whatever you need) here to eliminate the need for a diaper bag, then you can bring both children in 1 trip.' Heck, if need be, she can carry the youngest and then hold the others' hand.
