So I did it - I bought the stroller. I put it together this evening and took the boys on an inaugural walk.
Verdict: LOVE IT!!!
Josh loves that he sits up so strait - our old stroller was really hard to sit up in. The shade also rotates all the way, so you can always move it to shade the baby. Spencer lurved that he could stand or sit and continually moved from one position to the next. He was especially excited that he didn't have to sit right next to Josh, since in the jogging stroller they sit side by side and Josh has wandering hands. :)
My only complaints? 1) There's no where for me to put my stuff. (No cupholder or little bin or something.) They sell an organizer for it, but I don't really feel like forking out $25 for it. (But then again, I do have a $5 promotional certificate from Amazon. $20 might be worth it...) Or maybe I'll just sew something myself. HAHAHAHA! Like I'd ever have enough time or ambition for that. 2) Spencer kept sticking his feet out in the road while we were walking, almost tripping me if I wasn't paying attention. Not really the stroller's fault, but something I know we'll be dealing with for the next few trips.
Anywho, love the stroller. Totally recommend it.

Maren,
Is this the Joovy stroller or what brand is it? We tested out the sit and stand style today (I think it was BabyTrend)and I'm already sold on the style. . .just wondering why you got the one/brand you did???
Also, glad to know that normal weeks don't happen. At least I don't feel like I'm getting jipped or something. :)
Yes, this is the Joovy stroller. I chose it after reading lots of reviews online about both brands. (Mostly Amazon and Babys R Us. There's good and bad reviews for both.) I think the Joovy one is actually a little smaller when folded up and has the reputation for being a bit sturdier. Other than that, I chose it because it was the one Misty had. (Silly reason, but I just fell in love with that one!)
