On The Road Again

My excuse for not exercising (this is Kristin) was that I couldn't go on a walk with both boys. We had fun trying out the various double strollers at Babies R Us, Sam especially enjoyed testing them out. The cheaper model was only up to 35 pounds per child - so that basically excluded Sam. We looked at a double jogger that would hold up to 50 pounds per child, but was $180. We kept looking and found this model at Wally World. We were able to test it in the store by driving it around the baby area. The back seat had a little step and footrest for Sam, and Ben actually sat up ok in the front seat, so we bought it. The instructions actually say the heaviest child should ride in front - I'm sure for weight balance, but the back seat is much roomier for the older child, so not sure how that is supposed to work. I went for an hour walk on Monday, down by the river on the bike path. It has a couple of nice hills, which weren't an issue until the trip back, and suddenly the 40 pound stroller and the 50ish pounds of children made the last hill quite a doosey. I think I can, I think I can, I think I can.... Hopefully soon there will be more days soon where we can get out again --- for exercise sake, of course!
