I was so proud of myself for unwrapping it, putting the wheels and shades on, and figuring out how to use it. And doing it while caring for Leah and Cameron. Then I took it to the mall to try it out, and I was very pleased. Because it's a side-by-side, it's a little harder to fit through the doors and in tight aisles at the store. But I feel like it's a lot easier to maneuver than a front-and-back one.
Leah still likes riding in the stroller so I thought this would be a great asset. As soon as she came out of her room from her "nap" (which consisted of her playing in her room the whole time -that problem can have a post of its own), she wanted to play with and sit on the stroller. And she loves to look over at Cameron and say hi. I love that both sides can recline so I can put him in it even as a newborn. And I can fold up the bottom so he's extra secure.
What do you all think? Did I pick a good one? What has worked for all of you mothers of two or more?

I have had so many strollers I am a total addict! I really like the side by side but it sucks to shop with. My running stroller is a double side by side and that works great outside. I actually prefer only one in a stroller at a time because it's too heavy to push now that my kids are such heavyweights! Looks fun though...I love a new stroller!
I love it!!! It looks very sturdy and I love the color!
I have no comment about the stroller. Sorry, I just don't know a darn thing about strollers!
But I did want to let you know that much to my parents' dismay, I quit napping at age 2. I just didn't need a nap in the middle of the day any more, and they got tired of fighting me to go down. I hope that isn't the case with Leah because I know how important naptimes are, but I did want to just quickly say that some (rotten) kids quit napping very early. :)
Cute stroller. We've had a Graco tandum duo glider, although heavy and bulky it was nice fitting through things and had a huge basket. I now have a sit and stand and love love love it. It is easy to manuever, it has plenty of storage (sometime hard to get to though) and if I am desperate and I can fit 2 kids on the stand part. The front seat can have be used with an infant carseat. It's heaven.
I totally bought the same one!! But in orange. So far I really love it too. I don't care about some of the things people online complained about, like the small baskets or the worthless shades, but it is hard to shop with. Doesn't fit into the stores very well, but overall, I really love mine too! We can go to the mall together with our big old double wides! (I really love how small it gets when you fold it down too)
Love the stroller! The kids looks so cute too. I love little Cameron's smiles!
Side by side strollers are awesome. I love mine, but it's funny because I've had so many people ask me if Owen and Will are twins. You kidding, they're 2 1/2 years apart, so funny! Your little ones are so cute, and it was so great to see your parents. We just are sorry we missed seeing you guys :)
