Yes, yes, I am in love. It was love at first sight! ….OK, maybe it was love at first demo.
A few months back, my mother-in-law and I went to check out a new baby store in our city. At that time I was only 12 weeks pregnant, but I wanted to see if it was a place I would register. I planned to buy nothing. When we got to the stroller section I was amazed at the options floor to ceiling. As a nanny, I never got to pick out a stroller, but had used many brands and kinds. It was a little overwhelming just looking at the options, but as I talked to mom I explained it must function well and have great maneuverability. Beyond that, I had given no thought to what I wanted.

We saw a store employee doing a demonstration with the Britax B-ready and stopped to “ooh” and “ah” with the other ladies. He quickly removed and replaced toddler seats and infant car seats with ease. He then folded the whole stroller to stand on it’s own. My appreciation for multi-purpose and multi-function had my eyes locked. “What else can it do?”, I thought. That is when I saw this stroller become a double! WOW. As the demo concluded, I had to get closer. I was anxious to get my hands on this stroller and see if it FELT as good as it looked. To my surprise it glided on the floor with the use of only one hand. That was the moment. See I have worked the last few years with triplets (they were babies, toddlers, and now preschoolers). We used a variety of strollers with the boys over the years, and I often longed for that comfortable and easy push I’d felt that day on the B-Ready. The employee spoke about the stroller from personal experience as he had purchased one for his own 2 year old child;  he knew the ends and outs of how it worked and the safety it brought to his family. I took a few pictures as we left. I was determined to do my research before I invested in the stroller and car seat.
