Me: "You guys want to go hiking tomorrow?"
Jackson: "Nah. I'm too scared of wolves and bears."
Noah: "Yeah, I want to go hiking."
Jackson: "The bears can scratch through our tents Noah." (Telling him in a warning voice. . . like he better think twice).
Noah: "Yeah!! Bears!"
And there is the personality of my boys.
On another note, I got a new stroller and I can't wait to get it!! I have been coveting many a stroller the last 6 months or so and just can't seem to find one that I am happy with. Why can't someone design the perfect stroller? It doesn't seem too hard to me. Is a mom ever involved in it? Ever?
~cup holder for both parent and child. Like bigger than a bottle of water.
~napper bar
~good storage basket
~LIGHT WEIGHT!!!
~small
~fold easily
Is that too much to ask for?
A few weeks ago I bought the Peg Perego double side by side. No good. I own the Combi side by side and have loved it, but seriously need a new stroller. Just for the look of something new and not abused. It has been almost 3 years. I am ready! The sit and stand sounds like a good idea, but I seriously dislike pushing that long of an object. And the nicest brand I could find was still not that nice. I returned the Peg Perego (thanks Libby) and bought this:
The UPS man delivered my stroller an hour ago and it is AWESOME!! And since I forgot to tell you the name of it. . . Baby Planet Solo Deluxe. I am loving it. But I have only pushed it around my house. All 12 feet of my house. :)

Just out of curiosity, how does Jackson know bears can slice through tents and grab you?? I didn't hear those kinda stories until I was old.
Ellie looks delightful in a swimsuit!
You didn't even put what kind of stroller you got. Have you seen the Chicco ones? I like them the best I think. Actually I don't like ANY double strollers... help me! And by the way, what is a napper bar?
The story of the boys wanting to hike or not was too funny!
I could have told you to stay away from the Peg side-by-side. Actually, I think we've had this conversation before. You just had to try it out for yourself! :) That single looks like. I have the Joovy caboose, which was great for when Lars was still in his carrier. But now that he sits in a seat, I don't like the Joovy's front seat. I think I'm going to get rid of it. I just try and avoid going places where I need a stroller!
I love the hiking conversation. It sounds exactly what Parker and Ben would say. Parker--older, wiser, and scared!! And then there's Ben--fearless!! Sometimes just thinking about teenage years with that second one makes me scared to death!! It sounds like you may have the same challenge:)
Also, why don't they let moms design diaper bags? It's impossible to find one with all the features you need.
Great story about the boys - funny!
I love the hiking story, perfect description of those two!
You should design and produce the perfect stroller since it doesn't exist - I would buy it!
Since my child was the one making all of the noise the ENITRE trip, it's only fair that I sat back with the kids, why is my child so tempermental?
