Stroller Addicts Anonymous

Ok, so I never really considered myself to be a stroller addict until last night...

I was sitting with my husband on a date night (without my baby, mind you) and we're at this Greek festival with all these sights, sounds and smells and all I can do is sit and look at good looking, sleek, beautiful strollers walking by me!

I oohed and ahhed when I spotted it. The Red Phil and Teds Dash with doubles kit in the front position. The stroller looked sleek and modern on the street, a pleasure to push...really, but completely un-bulky, like some inline rides...the stroller looked awesome. As smooth as water falling over rocks. The baby in it looked comfortable and happy...of course if you were sitting in that ride you would be too! Believe me, if you would have seen this stroller on the street, you probably would have fallen in love like I did.

Then not two seconds later I turn to find a Bumbleride flyer in Spice (orange with teal lining). What a cute stroller on the street! Lightweight, but full service with the reversible handle allowing you to see your baby! The mom in question had the handle in the front facing position so she was able to look at her little one. Also, she had linked toys onto the safety bars. Baby in question wasn't sitting in the stroller but happily munching on the handle!

Of course, it wasn't two seconds later that I turned around and saw the beloved Bugaboo! The Dark Brown based Bugaboo Cameleon was in Bassinet form and was dressed (unusual for a chilly night) in a pink breezy canopy! I wasn't able to catch a glimpse of the little baby girl laying bundled and sleeping soundly on the comfy air flow mattress.

Well that was my fun night out, stroller watching. I wish I had taken pictures so you all could see these buggys out and about (reminder to take my camera wherever I go!) Also, if you ever happen to see a really cool ride, you can shoot me some pictures too and send them to info@strollinginstyle.com. I would love to see what you find!

I'll write more on my adventures in Strollerland, now that I am a full blown member!

Also, you can read this article about how to realize that you are a stroller addict and what to do if you are! I love this article, especially the end where the author spells out how many strollers a person should have so as not to turn your garage into a veritable stroller graveyard.

1) Full service ride for every day- parks, malls, walks
2) Lightweight, umbrella style- quick trips, airports
3) Jogger- exercise, fairs...

Just read the article, it's great! Take care until next time!
