hot wheels






as promised, some pictures of isa and the new Chariot... also known as "goosey's airplane" or "hot wheels" or the "dream stroller." isa LOVES the new bike trailer/stroller and for the first time ever, she is content to take long bike rides and walks. we are quite pleased about that! what we like most about it at the moment is the snuggle factor. since it can be totally closed up, it's easy to keep kiddos nice and warm, even when it's quite cold out. isa and charlotte went on a late evening ride a few days back and with snacks, drinks, books and a down throw, they were snug as could be. charlotte was even nodding off! there is an infant "sling" that allows for small infants to ride comfortably and safely before they are strong enough to sit up. rest assured, we have one of those on the way ;-)

many, many thanks to gramma and pop pop for making it happen... it's already getting lots of use!

  2. THANKS Gramma and Pop Pop...what a wonderful and generous gift. I can't think of anything that the family will use and enjoy more.

  3. Sweet! We love our BOB and if I was a bike rider, I'd be all over a Chariot! I just got the weather shield from REI a couple of days ago and Lucas and I are going to try it out soon! He's pretty happy in there right now though sometimes it gets crazy windy and I don't need any more excuses not to get outside.

  4. we love our jogging stroller too (and will likely hang on to it for a while), but didn't want to get another double stroller AND a double trailer that would work with a small baby... we have too much gear as it is! so the chariot can be all of those and we can keep the basement less crowded :-)

    the stroller wind/weather cover can be REALLY nice in wyoming... as even in the summer, 40mph just stinks, even if it's not cold!
