I'm a big kid now!

I got my triplet stroller this afternoon and I got it all put together by myself. I am liking it so far. I haven't used it yet but I have put the babies in it. The 1st and 2nd seats recline into 2nd position and the 3rd seat reclines into 2nd position or fully reclined, although there isn't a lot of space for the baby to lay when reclined if the baby is buckled in because the space between the crotch buckle and the top of the seat isn't very much. The smallest baby will probably be in the back from now on. The foot rests also adjust. This thing is not too much longer than my double snap n go but it seems a lot bigger because of the high canopies. I also cannot believe how high the handle is. It goes to my belly button and I am 5'4". My arms (shoulder to elbow and elbow to fingers) are literally at a 90 degree angle when I hold the handles and push it. I am sure Craig will like this feature because he is so tall. Jessica, I bet if you get this one, this would be good for Keith too! Also, the storage underneath kinda sucks. It isn't really big enough to hold the diaper bag. Well... I can squeeze it in there on its side with the foot rests up, but if the foot rests are down, it will not fit. I figured I would either get a smaller bag and possibly use two small bags or drape my bag over the handles. Oh and one more thing, I can fit it into my Yukon with no problem as long as I take out the front drink holder and the front canopy which is easy to do.

They were not happy campers because I got them up early from a nap and didn't feed them right away. It wasn't the stroller they were crying so much about. This one is with all seats reclined.

This is with all seats sitting straight. The top of the handle comes right to my belly button. Is that crazy or what???

You have become so independent with Craig away. You are doing great, hang in there!

I am still researching which stroller I want. I will let you know what I decide on!

Yay for one stroller for all. Makes it so much easier to go for walks etc.

Hey, I think I know that headless body in the top picture. :P

The stroller looks great. Has more storage than mine (the Runabout). It is sooooo nice to have one stroller for all of them. It is amazing the independence you will feel from it!

Amy said...

Yeah, the independence will be awesome but the more attention I'll get and the freak show...not so much!
