Favorite Passtime

Now normally, children ride IN the stroller.......Not my child! He INSISTS that he has to "push" it. He will cry his little eye's out until he gets to push it and then he is all smiles. I don't mind it, but I am not the one carrying him, with a hunched over back to let him do this, my poor husband is. This is the "normal" now when we take the stroller to the mall or where ever. At home, we have a cheap umbrella stroller (was free with $75.00 purchase at Toys'r'us) Well, he spotted this one day and now he LOVES to push this stroller around the house! This is a FULL SIZE umbrella stroller than he has learned to maneuver threw the different rooms and doorways. He's actually pretty good at it! Here he is enjoying a stroll through our house.......











Now if you notice, my husband is walking behind him holding onto "straps". Well these are called "Walking Wings". It goes around his chest and under his arms and you hold onto the straps. This way, if he falls you can hold him up before he hits the ground (avoids lots of tears!) They also save your back so you don't have to be constantly bent over holding onto to him. Now he walks very good on his own but pushing a stroller around, well, he's not stable enough yet. He's not even 14 months old!!!

Ok, so for Easter, his grandparents got him his very own stroller that is more his size! He pushes this thing EVERYWHERE! Here he is on Easter Day enjoying another stroll.....





Happy Friday Everyone!!!!!

Sandy, I love your little boy, he is so sweet. I just know he will go far in life because he likes to push and not be pulled. He is already to go and get things done. You are blessed, I am sure you and your husband know this. connie from Texas

Oh what a little darling! Don't let him find your car keys! My little ones love our toy stroller and toy grocery cart! They have races around the house.
