Stroller Lust

I have been lusting after this stroller ever since my friend Misty showed me hers a couple of weeks ago. She LOVES hers, and I am thinking I would love one, too. I have a double jogging stroller already, but it is far too big and bulky to lug around places. (Although I do love going on walks with it!) This one folds up smaller than the regular stroller I have now.

At first I decided I would get the Joovy stroller for our next baby. But now I'm thinking that is just too long to wait! Besides, Spencer is always climbing up on our old stroller, wanting to 'ride' or sit on it because he's tired or bored. And our old stroller is literally falling apart. I can tell Josh doesn't really like it all that much; it's more like he puts up with it. Plus, it would be PERFECTO for a short Chicago trip I am taking with my family in August; I know there will be lots of walking and Spencer will want to ride in the stroller.

It's a bit pricey, but certainly not prohibitively so. Plus I just edited two papers that would more than cover the cost. The stroller has 4 out of 5 stars on Amazon, and I've noticed that the people who give it fewer stars are the same who are never happy with anything they buy!

What do you think? Should I go ahead and get it? Or are there other strollers that you would suggest? I need a little peer pressure here.

That's the one we are planning on getting - the other "brands" of this type of stroller don't have the sliding seat, which is a must I think (at least to get to the basket underneath).
