If there was one thing I wish I had put more time, effort (and money) into before Bug was born, it would the time I spent thinking about and looking at baby strollers. I didn’t give it too much thought. I didn’t want to put a lot of money into a fancy one. I just didn’t think I’d use one that much. I ended up buying one (a rather old one) at a consignment store for $15. I also got an umbrella stroller for $10. Wow – those things don’t hold up to much weight! I thought I’d be able to push Bug around at the zoo this summer in it. He’s only 2.5! I see moms with strollers at the zoo with their 2 and 3 year old kids in them. But I can’t. He’s too big for his baby stroller and the umbrella stroller is impossible to push with his stout little self in it.
Why do I see other, (albeit happier) moms pushing their little ones around at the zoo? It’s all in the stroller you get! I was looking at the strollers from Joovy at MoreStrollers.com. When we have baby #2, I am totally getting the Joovy Caboose Double Baby Stroller. It has a baby seat in the front (and is also car seat compatible!) and a platform with seat in the back for an older child. Two kids + one stroller = happy mom! And at MoreStrollers.com – the Joovy Caboose is over 40% off!
So, don’t make the same mistake I made (I know I won’t make it again!) Pick the right stroller – you’re going to need it!
