Strollers

I always enjoyed shopping, but more with a purpose. I am very specific in what I look for and I hunt down the deals. I don't really "browse" for the purpose of shopping. It has to be perfect and fits my budgeting goal. So after the babies were born, I have focused pretty much all my shopping on them. The two boys pretty much get whatever that I feel are the best out there. Now I have two, it seems like strollers to Moms are like "purses" to girls.

So after much research, I decided a Phil and Ted is what I wanted. But it's not just the stroller, when you talk to the other Moms, you have to have the accessories. It's like you can't buy a purse without shoes that go with it. And that's how companies get you.. they charge extra for a wind cover, a sun cover, cocoon, bag, cup holder, etc etc. It's amazing how one stroller can rack up the cost. It's true I spent like $500 on the stroller --- pretty much like a new Prada purse.

Granted, I really wanted a Bugaboo but it wouldn't be practical since Mattie would have to walk all the time then. I also like the Peg Perego duette, but it doesn't manuever well in the snow. I enjoy it when people comment how light the stroller is and how cool it is to have two boys in it. I especially like to show off my boys in something stylish and have other Mommies envy me on how cute they are. (I know, they are still cute without the stroller but it's a bonus to say they are cute and has style :P )

New pic for the day. Mikey's first experience sitting upright by himself, of course big brother wants to show him the way tho.
