Strollin' with Little Man

When Hope was sick a few weekends ago we tried to cheer up her spirits by taking a trip to target to get her a few new play items. One of the toys we picked was a stroller for her dolls (which was surprisingly only $5 cheaper than the real umbrella stroller she rides in). We hit the jackpot with her because she hasn't stopped pushing it around the house since. Sometimes she even sits in it in the kitchen and plays. Last Thursday after dinner we were enjoying some family time. Jared was burping Bryce in the living room and I was cleaning up the kitchen while we chatted about the day. For no reason at all Jared spied the stroller and sat Bryce in it to find it was a perfect fit. We started laughing hysterically over it when Hope came down the stairs to find the marriage of two of her favorite things- Bryce and the stroller! She dropped everything in her hands and ran to it. It was one of those moments when you can see the determination in your child's eyes and all you can say is, "Oh no". She was desperate to push him around all over the place and did so with some aid and supervision, of course. The second picture below was her reaction to Jared stopping the stroller for a quick picture. She can be somewhat dramatic! I wonder where she gets that from?!?
