With this new one on the way, i'm looking for a new stroller. I love my full size one, but it's just that - full size. I need a good umbrella stroller for the space, traveling, etc. I hate the cheap ones, they're no where near tall enough for me and I end up with an aching back or just carrying the child. My preferences (in order):
1. tall handles
2. shade
3. basket underneath
4. sit & ride seat for Ains
Has anyone ever seen an umbrella stroller with the seat on the back for older kids?
I want your opinions, experiences, etc. Thanks!!

Have you ever seen my double stroller? It is a double umbrella pretty much and the handles are adjustable. I love it. Also I think the best place to shop for strollers is Burlington Coat Factory b/c they seem to have the best selection in store and you can kind of push them around. Or the internet like ebay or amazon. Make sure you read reviews if there are any.
No idea. sorry. :-( I can't believe it's almost baby time! DO you have a name yet?
Definitely go look at Burlington. It's where I found my stroller. They had a few that had the sit and stand area for bigger kids.
There are no umbrella strollers that have a sit and stand option-but there are double umbrella strollers-some that even accept a carseat. They are side by side ones. So if Ainsley is still very much a stroller girl, then I would recommend something like that. The sit and stand is pretty much a larger version of the full size stroller. Another option is to get a buggy board, and then Ainsley can stand on the back. We have one for my jogging stroller, but Paul couldn't take a full stride with it on. There are some great umbrella strollers with high or adjustable handles. Another thing to remember is that umbrella strollers are for babies older then 3 months (and some 6 months and older if it doesn't recline.) A site that I really liked for research was: http://strollers.baby-gaga.com/ It has side by side comparisons as well as price and such. It was a good start for me :) I had a cheap one and HATED it!!! So don't do that ;) A really neat lighter weight jogging stroller is the Phil and Ted's E3-it can be a single and double stroller, accepts a carseat, but can also lay flat for a baby. It's pretty nifty-but definitely not small like an umbrella. Good luck and email me if you have any questions! I have done so much stinkin' research on strollers and carseats due to trying to find something to accomodate my special needs child without the special needs price tag ;)
i think i heard peg prego had that sort of stuff, specifically longer handles, but expect to pay more!
I think I still need comments for sure on www.robinslittlenest.blogspot.com So if you get a chance that would be wonderful.
i think you might need to update just maybe... :P love you guys!
I found your blog when I was googling "Ainsleigh". It's my top baby girl name right now, and I am wondering if you have any insights - can most people pronounce it correctly? Does she seem to like it? Thanks!
