We spent a good portion of the afternoon at the park today.  It was lovely.  Nicholas had a great time playing in the sand, on the swings, and on the fireman pole!  We had a small visitor (a friends baby who was chillin' at our house for the afternoon) who came with us in a stroller and I had an amazing experience with marley...

Marley always pulls a lot when we go for walks.  Because of that I have never tried to walk him with a stroller.  Nicholas can't walk as far as Marley and I like to walk, so I can't walk Marley when I am on Kid Duty...  but today when we went to the park I said, "hey it is only like two blocks, Marley would love to come with , so I will just deal with it, put the baby in the stroller and marley on the leash, and let Nicholas run wild, we will all get there I am sure... and if not we can come back home and drop marley off..."  But, the amazing thing is that he did not pull once.  He walked quietly and polietely next to the stoller the whole time.  Maybe I should take Nicholas with me in the stroller every time we go for a walk!
