Cows: the Provo variety

Driving around BYU campus at 8 am, is like driving through cattle. The pedestrians just saunter around on the street like they have all day and the world revolves around them. The only difference is, cows will occasionally respond when you honk at them.

Totally know the feeling. I understand completely! Wouldn't it be nice if you could just nudge them ever so gently?!? ;)

Seriously! Sometimes I'm just like, couldn't you wait 10 seconds and walk after I pass?? When I'm walking, I wait for a break in the traffic.

I probably was one of those cows. Hello! Students deserve the right to stroll. They probably have really heavy backpacks and they're dreading that walk up the brick oven hill.

This is about the second truest thing I have ever heard. (Only next to what Jesus says) Sometimes I totally wanted to quickly throw it into neutral and give it a little gas to scare them... then maybe just hit them with the side mirrors! Try it and let me know how it goes.

Maria! I love the Moby wrap. It distributes the weight so much more evenly than the Baby Bjorn. You carry the weight on your hips. I won't wear our Baby B. because it kills my shoulder. Don, on the other hand, doesn't like the Moby because it takes a bit longer to put on and is a little bit complicated 'til you get the hang of it. I dance with Sam in the Moby at home when he gets fussy and he loves that. I also wear him in it when I grocery shop. It's my favorite baby purchase. We hiked with Sam in it all the time when he was little tiny.

BYU pedestrians are the worst! They don't know how to follow traffic rules and just assume that the cars can all wait for them! It's so annoying! Another reason I hate driving around campus.
