Thinking on one's feet

You've just got the washing off the line one handed while holding the baby.

It's starting to rain and you need to get the basket of washing inside.

The baby has only just woken up, so putting him in his cot while you dash outside to get the basket is not an option. Well, it is, but there will be bellowing and you'd prefer to avoid bellowing.

How do you get the washing basket inside, while holding the baby?

Stick him in the basket too.

Heh.
