yea. I'm gonna go look at it and "test drive" it maybe this weekend...I'm kinda hoping my mama and daddy will come in town so they can drive me the 30 min. to the BRU  I'm not up for the trek at the moment.

That's cute!  Have you considered a sit 'n stand style stroller?  Not sure if Lana is ready for that but my friend who had her babies close together got one of these and her son LOVES it.  he can stand facing forward or sit facing her in the rear and then the infant bucket goes in the front.  Oh, and if you have a Burlington coat factory check their prices.  I love the green and brown.

I'm gonna look at a few of the sit and stands but she's so danged SHORT  (she really is maybe 30 inches tall...poor baby is gonna be a munchkin like her mama I think...)

Awww!  Maybe she'll have a growth spurt in the next few days, lol!

My friends little boy hated being strapped into the stroller so the sit and stand worked really well for her.

we tried a sit and stand style thing , not sure of the brand . But when we got it home to test drive on driveway it made the pram tip and the stand part would tip when we went around corners . When we took it back to store we took our pram in to see if they could fit it better , they couldn't . We got a "just stand" thing instead , it disconnects and folds up to fit in a clip when he is not standing or wants to walk , he needs to be tall enough to reach the pram handle though.
when trin was little , if Rohan got tired i would put him in pram and wear her .
also :
Lascal Buggy Board
did see some wierd "tricycle " style things that clipped on to side of pram too.
the  Bugaboo Wheeled Board -can also be fitted with a seat.

My most imporatnt advice though would be to take your pram and child with you and test run .
after all that ....i would love the option to also have a double pram for when there is only me and two tired babies .

well the MAIN reason I want it is for the summer months. It's generally not "too" hot here until August-ish. So my plan is, in May when I head back to work? To walk. I live a 1.5 miles from my job. I can walk chico to school, an continue on. Save gas in the bus, and get some really good exercise by walking 3 miles a day. I'll save money on lunch too, since due to time I'll have to bring my lunch to school. If it rains we will of course drive, but I think that with all 3 kids and me heading the same place this summer? Chico can ride his bike along side us and we will all get some good exercise and fresh air.


the hubster thinks this will last all of a week...but to be honest pushing a stroller is just as much effort as say, hauling two chubby babies in and out of car seats twice in five minutes.

Got a burst of energy (aka, the weather was too damn nice to stay cooped up indoors and lil bit has been antsy for an outing) and ran to the BRU to test drive it...


fell.in.love.

It wieghs what my big single stroller does, the turning radius is AMAZING (the thing can literally do donuts...it's still got cupholders for me AND the toddler, and it's MUCH cuter in person. I got the car seat that matches and me and my girls will be stylin'   

Happy. I am. I'm really glad I waited and saved for the one I wanted...though I'm disappointed we missed the "trade in" sale ... this way I will have a "single" travel system for days when I'm on leave and say, DON'T have both girls with me. That's pretty cool actually.
