After much consideration, we bought a new double stroller. This makes our stroller count four in total: a cheap lightweight umbrella stroller, a more advanced umbrella stroller that reclines, the versatile Maxi-Cosi and the new Britax double stroller. We're going to be selling two of them in the near future because this Britax is even more versatile and has many different configurations. Elizabeth still prefers riding rather than walking and ever since the birth of Vincent, we've had to either carry one of the kids and have the other one in a stroller or bring two strollers. It's been especially difficult for me, since we spend the afternoons at the playground or outside and I need to handle both of them. I've had one strapped to my chest and the other on my back, one in the stroller and the other hanging on it for dear life, and one in the stroller while carrying the other. It is quite a sight, like a circus act.
So far, I've had the stroller for two days and it has been amazing. Elizabeth loves it and no complaints from the baby either. The ride is smooth, comfortable and it is sturdy. It looks likes Elizabeth is too big for it in this picture, but it's only because she wanted the foot rest up, which really should only be used that way for younger kids or in the reclined position. She's currently 28 pounds and the top seat is able to support up to 55, so she should be able to use it for a long time. The top seat has three positions and Elizabeth is sitting in the foremost one. The bottom one has four and Vincent is laying in position three. It lays nearly flat for a bassinet like feel on position four, but since he was awake I wanted him to enjoy the scenery too. Today's trip to the playground was an easy one. We even took a trek to the one farther away without any complaints. -S
Nice! Good to know in case we have another kiddo. :)
ReplyDeleteUmmm.. you are in denial. Ellie is way to big for that thing. As evidenced by her T-rex arm posturing.
