A New Ride

About three weeks ago our old stroller, which I never really cared for, broke upon taking it out of the car for the farmers' market.  It may have been caused by an impromptu off-roading trail ride through Deb's Park the weekend before, but whatever it was, I was thankful.  It served us for Tatum's first two years, and now with a new baby on the way, it was time to take the leap and invest in a new stroller for two.  I've been scoping out strollers for a long time now, which in LA is an easy thing to do.  Go to the Americana or the LA Zoo and you are bound to see 100 different strollers.  So I had my eye on the Joovy, and after reading a ton of reviews, decided on the Caboose Ultralight.  I let Andrew pick the color (blueberry) and we ordered it the next day off of Amazon, where it was on a super sale.  And let me say, it was an awesome move by me because the stroller ROCKS!  Tatum enjoys the standing platform because it dubs as a scooter (she uses one foot to push the stroller along) as well as sitting in the front.  It has all the bells and whistles included (the parent pouch, the car seat attachment, the snack tray, and an extended sun visor).  And although it is still three months (THREE MONTHS!!!) until the new babe is here, it is super useful now.  Just yesterday while we were on a play date, us two moms shared a single stroller and both the girls were able to ride comfortably.  Oh, can you tell, I finally am in love.  So here's a shot of Tatum in the stroller taken today while at the Arboretum.
