Emily Maynard Johnson Says 'Target Needs a Daycare' Alongside Snap of Three Sons 3 and Under

Emily Maynard Johnson has her hands full!

The former Bachelorette made a stop at Target recently with her four children — Gatlin Avery, 8 months, Gibson Kyle, 2 next month, Jennings Tyler, 3, and Ricki, 13 — and gave her followers a glimpse into the reality of shopping with three children aged 3 and under.

Posting a photo of her sons sharing the seating space in one of the retail giant’s kid-friendly carts, Maynard Johnson, 32, lamented her lack of onsite childcare options.

“3. Almost 2. 8 months. 13 year old looking at phone cases somewhere. I think Target needs a daycare like Ikea. Who’s willing to sign my petition?” she captioned the snapshot.

I woke up feeling extra brave (or crazy) and decided to take all the kids to @discoveryplace today for the dinosaur exhibit. If you go you need these things: 1) coffee 2) this stroller that miraculously fits all my babies (I have it linked through @liketoknow.it) and 3) most importantly, Ricki because I couldn’t have done it without her! http://liketk.it/2ww7M #liketkit #liketoknowitfamily @babyjogger

Tomorrow I become a teenager mom and I’m going to need all of your prayers, good thoughts, voo doo, snake oil, whatever is going to get me through the next couple of years. Thanks! {ricki truly is exceptional and im really not worried about her. Just having flashbacks of 13 year old Emily and am having crippling anxiety.}

Since welcoming baby Gatlin in November, Maynard Johnson has ventured out for many an adventure with her growing brood — even though she has admitted it’s not always the easiest task.

“My first outing as a mom of four,” she captioned a December photo of herself and all four of her kids at what looked like a hardware store.

“If you need me ever again, I’ll be at home forever,” joked Maynard Johnson, who toted Gatlin in a front carrier in the candid snap.

My sweet Jennings turned 3 this weekend and we had the best time celebrating at Mimi’s House. He is crazy smart, funny, sensitive, and loves all things sharks and Blippi. I made it through the Terrible Twos with my first boy! Yay! {you know you’re a redneck if you hang your piñata from a broomstick off the porch!}

Later that month, the former reality star opened up to PEOPLE about how a large family with husband Tyler Johnson was on her mind from the get-go.

And while Maynard Johnson revealed that she’s “excited for them to grow up together,” having her boys close in age means there’s a lot of rough-and-tumble play in the Johnson home.

“Occasionally I do think they’re going to kill each other,” she admitted. “The baby has taken a couple of play hammers to the head!”
