Strollers

So we don't have two kids yet, but I'm obsessed with baby stuff still. I've been trying to decide what kind of stroller we will use when #2 does show. Should we go with the side-by-side double stroller, the front to back double the sit & stand, or no double stroller at all. We've really enjoyed the Kolcraft stroller so far with Owen. It's got great wheels for walking anywhere (not the little hard plastic ones). And it was excellent when he was an infant, because with an attachment, we could just lift his whole car seat out and place him it it without waking him. So the stroller I've become completely enamored of is the Joovy Ergo Caboose. It just came out this year and is utterly amazing! We test-drove one at USA Baby in Austin. The only thing we haven't done is see how it fits in the car. Once I'm actaully pregnant, we'll go back for a second perusal. It has one seat in the front and a standing platform with a little booster seat, straps, and handles in the back. The cool thing is, the back also has a carseat adapter. So when Owen's still young, he can ride in the front all strapped in. But when he gets older and wants to be a big boy, baby #2 can ride in the front, even reclining, and Owen can stand or occasionally sit in the back. The pictures only show black, but there are colored covers you can get for the seats & the sun shade. The sunshade, by the way, is gigantic. It's much bigger that any other sit and stand stroller we looked at. It glides so easily with practically one-handed turning. And it has bicycle like tires instead of the hard plastic ones. I guess I was just sharing but also wondering if anyone has had any experience with the stroller. I would certainly appreciate it before we shell out some major money on this one.
