John and I ventured out to
Segal's for Children and it was quite the experience! That store is huge and they have everything you could ever imagine. We were so overwhelmed but it was also SO much fun picking out our bigger items, the stroller and car seat. We played around with several car seats and ended up loving the one I wasn't sure I'd like– the
Graco SnugRide.
It is really lightweight, and extremely easy to get in and out of the car seat base that will stay in our car. It also fits nicely (with a small attachment) into the stroller I was quickly drawn to. The
City Mini by Baby Jogger:
We looked at several other brands and travel systems, but this was by far our favorite. And we really like the look & feel of 3-wheeled strollers instead of 4. We thought we'd end up with a
BOB stroller which are bigger and have all sorts of bells and whistles, but it kinda scared me. It's really for serious runners or for people who take their baby stroller on hikes or walks on uneven terrain. The thing honestly looked bigger than me, and I freaked. The City Mini is just a smaller version of a jogging stroller that is totally cute, but still very sturdy. We're really excited about these and feel relieved that 2 more big decisions have been made! This reminds us of planning our wedding... There are just so many options– maybe TOO many options– and it can be super overwhelming. But we feel good about it since we're starting early and pacing ourselves. So what's next?? Hmm... We'll probably wait to do much else until we know if it's a boy or girl (come on, July 9th!!)
