A Baby on Wheels

All of this nice weather has made me want to spend more time outside and go on more walks. For our outside expeditions, I usually put Constance in the Infantino carrier I bought after we graduated from the pocket slings. When she was a newborn, Constance would fall asleep in the carrier before we were halfway down the block. Lately, she has become more interested in her surroundings so she would cock her head back and look at the tree branches and rooftops as we walked through the neighborhood. But then this past week she started getting extra squiggly in the carrier. Perhaps part of it was the warmer weather. In any case, it seemed time to try out the stroller.

Tom put together the stroller and we buckled Constance into the seat. We pushed her outside and halfway through the door, she let out a squeal. Apparently, for her riding in a stroller must be the equivalent of a Disneyland ride. We pushed Constance around the neighborhood and she absolutely loved it. She could wiggle to her heart's content and see everything she wanted to see. Now whenever I put her in the stroller for a walk, she gets this excited look on her face and when the "ride" begins she lets out a squeal and waves her arms in the air.
