Home What was your M.O. when it came to the stroller madness?

Suburban mom with a LO born in the middle of a cold, snowy winter here, so travel system right away. The little one can stay warm and snuggly from car to stroller and vice versa.

With my older son, who was a november baby, I had a graco travel system that I loved. The only problem was how large and bulky the stroller component was. Then when he turned one I got a mclearen techno that''s the only stroller I''ve used for him for the past 2 years.

With the new baby, I''m using the same graco carseat, but with the graco snap n go frame instead of the bulky travel system stroller, and I like that much better. I will just use that until he graduates to the mclearen.

I also just bought the baby trend sit n stand elite special edition available through one step ahead. It''s the least bulky stroller I could find for when I need to tote both kids at once - I really like it. The big kid either sits or stands on a small olatform on the back of the regular stroller.

I voted "Other", since I don''t really fit into any of those categories.

We have both the Bugaboo Bee and the BOB. I keep the Bugaboo in the car, and the BOB stays at home most of the time for walks around the neighborhood.
We are totally suburban, so we are in and out of the car a lot. That is why we ended up with the Bee. It is small and easy to fold. I used it with the car seat adapter as a Snap N Go for the first four months, and have been using the seat ever since. It doesn''t have the best suspension in the world, so we have the BOB as a second stroller for long trips or if we''re going somewhere with rough terrain (hikes, beach, etc).

So far our strollers are working for us. The Bee is kind of small, though, so I could see DS growing out of it early. We are planning on trying for another baby in another year or so, I think we''ll need a double stroller before he grows out of the Bee.
