Thanks everyone for your responses! I am going to have to sit down and give it some serious thought. Sassygirl, I am 25 weeks, so it is not to bad at the moment, and I am hoping by the time that I a really big, the weather will decide to co-orate. I was afraid of the whole 'pulling' thing, as I have heard that it is not good during pregnancy as well. But my husband is like yours...lol

Sunndydays, the 5 year old would be getting off of the bus with his 8 year old brother. I believe that is why the mother deemed it okay. However, he is sometimes a little bit spaced out, so I am not 100% sold on the idea. But I do agree that the older the should be able to walk his brother down 5 houses.
