new baby

Yeah, its not what you're thinking. Though there has been a new addition to our family. The last present that our Baby opened on his birthday (actually, on the day after his birthday. We really tried to spread the excitement out) was a little stroller and a toddler scale baby doll. When we did the pre-birthday browsing trip to the toy store to try and figure out what the Baby actually wanted for his birthday, he found himself one of these little strollers and a similar doll and never stopped pushing it around the whole time we were there. 

And it was much the same thing here at home. New Baby went in the stroller and ZOOOOOooooommm off they went. 

ZOOooommm.... all through the house. 

It was so sweet to see how delighted he was with it. And that it wasn't just the thing with wheels that he liked.

New Baby gets a lot of love too. He gets carried around and fed and even taken to the potty. (I love the idea that our Baby is modeling behaviour about being a Daddy himself one day) He's been taken to bed for naps and night time and is second only to his old favourite "Floppy Dog" (or as he calls him "Flobby"). When I tuck him in at night he has one arm snuggly wrapped around each of them.

beautiful last picture! So sweet. Simon loved the toy stroller too, though he pushed a wooden Pinocchio around in it.

delightful. And I agree that the last pic is sweet! :) Elias loves to push a stroller, too.
