@NaturallyCathy: I can't wait to get it! What kind of stroller did you get??

@TurtleDoves: Ahhh are you excited for your trip??? I'm jealous!

@Running Elley: It was used of Craigslist but this is the one that I'm hopefully going to be the proud new owner of soon!
I was just searching for a Graco one for the infant car seat to click into and since the car seat is Graco... I'm hoping it won't be too bulky in my trunk but it'll be used for a while, me thinks. And if we decide to change to another double stroller when they get a little older, we'll probably gift this one to one of the grandparents!

@Running Elley: Well I only ran 3 miles this morning, but I will dedicate one of them to you! Haha.
This thread is making me feel lazy. But in my defense, if I do help my dad with his garden, my parents are feeding me dinner, so make dinner and clean the kitchen isn't on my list. And our apartment has been clean lately because it's being shown to prospective tenants.
Oooh I remember one more thing, though:
- Pack up books to donate to a tag sale

@NaturallyCathy: Oh I like! A little OT buttttt have you found that its been difficult to cope without a double so far? We aren't planning on buying one right away but since you're currently going through what we're preparing for I'm curious!
@artbee: Oh what are you doing for Father's Day?
@Reese: Haha
@red_seattle: Cookies! Now I want cookies.

@Running Elley: off topic: DH has plans to go into ministry professionally... when a recent opportunity came open we realized our lack of attendance & involvement was really against him. It was a real eye opener that if church was going to be an integral part of our religious beliefs, we just need to dig in our heels & get it done. I'm kind of nervous about committing to serve again! eek!

@.twist.: I'm getting sleepy too 
@Springtime: You. Can. Do. It.
@fancyfunction: I'm jealous of your library story time! Our library doesn't offer one and I'm so bummed about it!

@Running Elley: If you have a stroller that works with your infant car seat and you have a nice umbrella stroller, than no. The only time I've had real difficulty is when it comes to doctor visits and I was initially going into the doctor's office solo (had a friend meeting me there) It was impossible trying to steer two strollers. Add to that the fact that the umbrella stroller that I had, while a little nicer than the $20 ones you see at Target since this one folds in half, the wheels were impossible to turn even when I did just have to take care of one stroller.
Mainly, the double stroller for now is so that we can take a walk around the campground with both babies and one stroller or later on next month we hope to take both kids to the zoo. So for the first few months? Not necessary. I had wanted to get a double stroller that matched the car seat that we have pattern wise but for $50, this is a steal and the pattern is nice and relatively neutral. I'm excited.

@runsyellowlites: Props to you for digging deep and doing it though. It is so hard... Especially with all of the responsibilities that come with having children. And it's one of those things, in my experience, that once you do it and it becomes more habitual it becomes almost second nature. Good luck!

Get out of work, get home (1 hour commute YUCK), pack for overnight at casino with DH, bathe DS, nurse, put him down, head downtown for dinner at 8pm, and then parttttttttttttttttttty with DH all night. (Ha, more like pass out in the huge hotel bed after dinner.) 
coconut / 8681 posts
@NaturallyCathy: That makes a lot of sense. We have a single BOB and the infant carseat adapter that fits it and our carseat. We were kind of thinking that we can stroller one and wear one? I'm not sure how realistic that is (especially since DS is already huge lol). I'll definitely start looking for an umbrella stroller. I think that would be a practical purchase for us.
GOLD / grapefruit / 4555 posts
@Running Elley: Exactly. When we go shopping, we pop her car seat into (what is essentially) a wire frame stroller and plop him into the seat of a shopping cart. I bring a baby carrier with me for when she gets fussy (my Beco) and when he needs a break from the cart we just carry him. My car has two strollers in the back right now. Her minimum stroller and his umbrella. The double is just for when we expect to be out a long while, as I mentioned.

@Running Elley: Are there any other libraries near you that do? Some of the ones around here you just need a system-wide card instead of a library card for that specific library. It's fun and I've already met some "mom friends."
@IRunForFun: I am!
