Parenting’s a Wild Ride; The Best Strollers

We all know that this wild ride called parenthood also includes a wild amount of “baby stuff”. From bassinets to bottles, from car seats to strollers, there’s always something new needed or wanted.

And if you’re anything like me, your garage is bursting at the seams with the latest must-have baby gear.

But speaking honestly, I’ve made a few mistakes when it comes to strollers… well, and many other baby products. When our first (and long-awaited) was born, we had a Maxi Cosi Travel System. It was - like many of them and the Doona - a godsend. The ability to pop your almost always sleeping newborn into a stroller straight from the car is undeniably essential!

However, it’s all the extras you get sucked into. Either adding on accessories to your current stroller, believing you need a special travel stroller, thinking ahead to having the option to transform your stroller to accommodate two kids, or upgrading to one that better fits your car or isn’t as heavy, or… the list goes on.

In my opinion, we have found two types of strollers to work really well for us:

• The travel system stroller (ours was like this Maxi Cosi - paid link)

• And, when we had two kids under two, a wagon stroller (the Evenflo - paid link - is the one we have and LOVE)

We have used the Mockingbird stroller - especially when our youngest was an infant but the stroller is definitely getting more use and I could see it getting more continued use. In fact, I may do a complete product review on the Evenflo Pivot Xplore All-Terrain Stroller Wagon because it is that good.

Let me know what’s been your favorite stroller!
