I think the last time I used the stroller was when we were in Seattle last year, and I bet we put 50 miles on it. Otherwise, we have just carried or allowed Owen to walk whenever possible.Korihttp://seekorirant.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-80155211577476695342009-09-10T08:38:25.983-07:002009-09-10T08:38:25.983-07:00Yeah, Matthew rarely wants to be in his stroller a...Yeah, Matthew rarely wants to be in his stroller any more. He even refuses the wagon most of the time now too. He wants to walk everywhere. I'd say this is a pretty normal stage to be wanting to give it up - especially for boys. Definitely hold onto it if you're planning on another child though.Lady Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00933248315325429447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-46543200823842427672009-09-10T07:03:37.464-07:002009-09-10T07:03:37.464-07:00With the first child, we had the stroller.

Skip ahead a few years and number three has come into the picture. We've also upgraded to the wagon you speak of. Very handy. Very sturdy. 3 boys duking it out to be one of two rider max it could hold.Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11609041651482395857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-90996083329631713532009-09-10T05:52:08.656-07:002009-09-10T05:52:08.656-07:00As soon as they were old enough to get on my nerve...As soon as they were old enough to get on my nerves about not wanting to be in a stroller.WILLIAMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00719470271284761917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-43329240716465924712009-09-10T05:26:09.575-07:002009-09-10T05:26:09.575-07:00We have a jogger, umbrella, regular (which is gett...We have a jogger, umbrella, regular (which is getting sold), and recently purchased a "stand and sit" for Jacob and the new little guy. I opted for the "stand and sit" because Jacob rarely will sit in a stroller any more, but thinks standing in the new stroller is cool! He stopped wanting to sit in the stroller about 6 months ago, but I still take it with me as he occasionally will be a flight risk.Being us...https://www.blogger.com/profile/06230225611051693046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-1976681265144512052009-09-09T22:37:33.826-07:002009-09-09T22:37:33.826-07:00Don't use it much either.

The 4 year old always liked the stroller and had to be encouraged to walk sometimes, while the 2 year old has always preferred to walk and sometimes (e.g. for speed) has to be persuaded to get into the stroller.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18423908073209400111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-12349544763025245322009-09-09T13:26:46.412-07:002009-09-09T13:26:46.412-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11044403947730363259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-37692546383813320612009-09-09T13:26:44.368-07:002009-09-09T13:26:44.368-07:00Are you trying to confuse me into an early grave?!...Are you trying to confuse me into an early grave?!<br /><br />I didn't see any red wagons at the baby dump.Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11044403947730363259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-89306643322346436662009-09-09T13:17:32.580-07:002009-09-09T13:17:32.580-07:00My daughter is 3 and is as big as many 5 year olds...My daughter is 3 and is as big as many 5 year olds....and she still uses the stroller, although we MOSTLY encourage her to walk unless it is a long one. My son is almost 17 months but just getting the hang of walking, so it will be interesting to see what he does once he figures out he can do more than sit! We have a double Bob stroller. Actually that is ONE of our strollers. We have another non-jogging double stoller, one single, one single jogging, and one umbrella.

My daughter, however, is nearly 3 and loooves her stroller. She will be in it for the long haul, I think, and that's fine by me. We have 3 strollers - an umbrella, a baby jogger, and a graco fancy one, so I guess we *are* stroller people!Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16424649279123182158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-12530591648665504682009-09-09T12:17:29.955-07:002009-09-09T12:17:29.955-07:00We used a stroller with our first past three years...We used a stroller with our first past three years old, but only when we knew we'd need a preschooler transport mechanism (like say for a zoo trip). My wife isn't a fan of pulling a wagon, and preferred the stroller for long days.<br /><br />I would guess we stopped using the stroller as a regular item around two, two and a half.SciFi Dadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10479890087443823197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8195142635395855095.post-39885644095225333272009-09-09T12:17:14.212-07:002009-09-09T12:17:14.212-07:00I still use my 2 doublr strollers.

The middle 2 boys are still in strollers because they 2 are flight risks. Sometimes if we are doing shopping and the whole family is together (very rare) we just use 1 double stroller and then put the other 2 in the shopping cart. We manage - we don't like the strollers but for us they are necessities.<br /><br />I would sooo love one of those red wagons though!Krystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09505381993557642290noreply@blogger.com
