Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for October 16, 2022

Swaddling is a lost art

Hanging from that Nose cracks me up.

The stroller is to transport the supplies. Diapers, wipes, bottles, snacks, etc.

Probably in the vain hope that she will take a bigger interest in it and not his nose

To bring her home when she is exhausted and/or tired. And, maybe put one, or two, of the other kids too in it… Depends on which activity they are going attending.

He has a Roman nose, Wren roams all over it!

At first I thought he was blowing a bubble with gum and wondered why the colorist didn’t make it PINK.

Enjoy it while you can Dad. I truly miss those days with my two daughters.

To store the toys….

I imagine he brought the stroller out of either habit, wishful thinking, or a combination of both.

The stroller is for hauling all the “kid krap” required for traveling with children.

Strollers come with shoulder straps and seat belt. It’s amazing how quickly they figure out how to get out of them.

Darryl is aging, so uses the stroller as a walker.

To carry the diaper bag in.

Climbing the Paterhorn…

“I brought it to put our other stuff in.”

To carry everything else.

Wren has invented Schnozz Climbing.

For things that we might by….

Ditch the stroller and get one of those collapsable cloth wagons. Great for hauling kids, sports equipment, and all manner of other things.

We didn’t even own a stroller for kid#1; we backpacked him-even while cross-country skiing. I swear that backpack (which sits a little higher than most packs) improved my “posture muscles” for years to come.

Because when Wren crashes, she’s gonna crash hard!

Wren wants to be held.

More to the point, why do you let her out of it, if this is what happens?

From my memory of when the kids were that age, the stroller was either for the kid or the diaper bag. You’d carry one or the other.

WREN!

Haha! XD
