Strolling

Clark had his first stroller ride today. He loved it. He laughed and smiled when we put him in the stroller. Then he slept for most of the ride around the mall. Which was good, because we let the three big kids run loose. They did pretty well-- didn't run too far ahead or lag too far behind. People stared at us with three toddlers and a baby in a stroller-- but let them stare. The kids mostly just trotted along and yelled happily at each other. Until the end of our walk when they all found it incredibly funny to pretend they had tripped, causing them to tumble and roll across the ground. No amount of, "Get up. The floor is dirty! Yucky! Yucky!" was going to stop that giggle-fest. Sometimes their silliness just has to peter out on its own.
