This morning I decided to start working with Hunter a little more on walking with a stroller. He has his own stroller that we have used quite a bit but when picking a stroller for you Josh insisted that it be able to accomodate Hunter as well. Wouldn't you know there is only ONE stroller on the market that can do this! I researched for a while and decided to go with the Baby Jogger City Select stroller. It is a single stroller that converts to a double very easily. It can hold 2 car seats, 1 car seat and a bassinet, 1 regular seat and a car seat, 2 regular seats, or 1 regular seat and a bassinet. We ordered the bassinet piece for Hunter to ride in (and for you to use when he is not in it) and we registered for the stroller, extra seat, and car seat adapter.
Here are some pictures of the stroller:

| This is the bassinet piece. You need components from the seat piece to make it work so we registered for the second seat even though we don't have two kids right now. Hunter can ride safely in this component as can you! |
 |
| This is what the stroller will look like when its just you riding in it once you hit the 3 month or more mark and can safely sit in the seat. |
 |
| These are all the different configurations for this stroller if you have the various components (which we will thankfully have). It is truly a "planning ahead for second baby" stroller. |
So back to my training with Hunter this morning. We began with him riding in the stroller because the hill is sooooo very steep (it always takes my breath away). Then, once we cleared the noisy construction area I put him on the ground and walked between the stroller and him. I alternated doing this and walking behind the stroller and having him try to maintain a safe distance from the wheels. This isn't a great pictures but he's a shot of when he was doing well!
Of course, it will take a lot of practice but I am going to commit to working with him at least 2 times per week either in the morning or the evening to help him walk correctly so that the three of us can take walks on our own if Josh is busy.
That's all for today!
