So we weren't going to get a double stroller. Kate likes to walk these days, and we have to really "talk up" the stroller and how she is going to have to stay in it, etc., etc., when we plan on putting her in it. We figured we'd have Isaac in the carrier and Kate in the stroller when we needed to ... and then later on, Isaac could ride in the stroller and Kate could walk. But then after a few outings, I started to second-guess our decision. If we did buy a double stroller, however, I didn't want to spend a lot of money on one--especially not knowing how much use we'd get (or not get) out of it.
Then, Saturday before last, we were driving out of the neighborhood when we spotted a yard sale. With baby stuff. Tanna slowed down, and I said something like, "Oooh, there's baby stuff--do you see a double stroller?" And he did!
We were in a hurry--this was the day we drove to Birmingham--so there wasn't a lot of time to shop around, but we bought this double jogger for only $50! (Our neighbors kept it at their house until we got back that afternoon.) Anyway, it's in great shape, and we took it for a spin when Tanna got home from work the other day. We are happy with our purchase--yay!
That is way cool for neighborhood walks. Does it fold up at all? I always wondered if those "Sit'N'Stand" strollers are all they are cracked up to be.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Does owning this stroller mean you actually have to jog now? Or is that Tanna's job?
Hey--it does (at least I am pretty sure it does), but we haven't taken the time to figure it out yet. I *think* the front wheel comes off and then it folds down. We thought it'd be nice for walks and to take to the zoo, etc. And ...I sure hope jogging isn't a requirement. hahaha!
ReplyDeleteYay for a good deal. Double strollers are so expensive!
