Opinions Please

So I have ventured into the world of looking for the perfect double stroller!!! And maybe there are about ten million different kinds. All of you moms of more than one child- suggestions please. I really like the one below. I don't want the double wide and I need enough room for storage plus I kind of want both seats to recline- am I being to picky?!?!

please, PLEASE help a sista out:)

I want it now. I wonder how many strollers I can own in my short time as a mother with small children. :); October 27, 2009 at 9:31 PM
stewart.shana.ella said...: It is that sweet one I showed you. I saw it in Disneyland and liked it. Ha- you just need to have another garage sale and sell the one you have now:); October 27, 2009 at 9:40 PM

Libby said...: i have a double wide and a double long stroller...both have their pros and cons but i think i kind of like the double wide better it is lighter and takes up less room. by graco long one seriously takes up the entire trunk! i don't know anything about the one you pictured but it sounds/looks nice. sorry i guess i am zero help! good luck!; October 28, 2009 at 5:23 AM
Emily Harkness said...: Just make Ella walk. That's what I did to Bennett. I never did get a double stroller. I must say my mall outings were much more adventurous after that!:); October 28, 2009 at 7:38 PM
Emily Harkness said...: OK, that's not completely true. We do have a double jogging stroller which works great for jogging, but that's about it. I am no help to you.; October 28, 2009 at 7:39 PM
Danielle said...: ok, I don't have 2 yet, but I've been obsessed with double strollers too, lol. I went and saw the red one in person, and it just seemed kinda long.. I dunno, but I always liked the idea of the side by side. I think I'm going with this one http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3375005 It folds over and then in half so it gets really small, it has cup holders for the kids, you can push it with one hand and it can take a car seat. But that red one can do a lot of cool stuff. So good luck!; October 29, 2009 at 9:09 AM

Staci Leach said...: There is a great stroller that has a platform that Ella can stand on and a seat for the baby! She gets the best of both worlds! Those double long strollers are a pain! I have one and rarely have ever used it but use my side by side every time I go to the airport!; November 2, 2009 at 12:37 PM

The funny things Miss Ella says

Stewart and I were trying to decide what to do with Ella so we were spelling out words. We talked about going to the p-a-r-k! We didn't even think she was paying attention. In the car she says, " I want to go to the p-r-ck and play." I don't even know how she knew what we were spelling. A few letter off but that is pretty good:)

We asked Ella if she wanted to go get ice cream after the park and she said, " I want strawberry ice cream with sprinklers."

We were shopping and I said to Ella, "you are a monkey," and she looked at me and said.... " I not a monkey I a child of God!"

Stewart and I are getting new phones in a few days. Yesterday I said to him, "guess what we get in just a few more days?", and Ella says to me (very excited) "PRESENTS."

The other night I was getting Ella ready for bed. I was brushing Ella's teeth in the bathroom and she was acting really silly so I called her a tool. She says to me, " no, I a hammer:)"

Ella's fav pastime is reading books. My Mom got her a book about the Nativity. We were reading it and she was pointing everyone out. She then pointed to one of the wise men with a white beard and said, "this king Triton." (The little mermaid)
