Promise! <BR/><BR/>On the stroller note, we really love the City Jogger Elite -- it folds with one hand! It's not a travel system, but when the boys outgrow their infant seats, we'll need something to push them around in! <BR/><BR/>As far as the octuplets mama, I agree completely that the mom obviously has a problem. I feel so sad for her, I just really hope that she's able to give each of those precious children the love and attention they deserve.M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13098798198747789125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329289030321544857.post-88858147652234425432009-02-02T14:29:00.000-05:002009-02-02T14:29:00.000-05:00Glad you are home!

How exciting to be shopping for your little guys too!!<BR/><BR/>I won't even start about the 8 babies. Each new part of the "story" that is revealed just pisses me off more and more. And if one more person mentions this story to me with a smirky little smile and "Don't end up coming back with 8", I may have to inflict harm.Lost in Spacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07027117135940864685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329289030321544857.post-72209734674958608352009-02-01T23:23:00.000-05:002009-02-01T23:23:00.000-05:00I cannot believe how quickly the time has gone by!...I cannot believe how quickly the time has gone by!!!

I think by far the duoglider was easier to snap carseats in and out of and much lighter and sensible fold-up. The duoglider holds itself upright whereas the quattro tour folds flat to the ground and you are then having to dead lift it.<BR/><BR/>When the twins grew out of their carseats we ended up winning a Chicco Trevi Twin stroller (side by side). Very slim fold up and lightweight but harder to open/close and aisles are just not wide enough for it most places (JCPenneys in particular). If I had to do it again, I would have stuck with the duoglider all the way. <BR/><BR/>Just my $0.02. Not sure if it is any help or not. Hopefully.GibsonTwinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09328776587709357686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329289030321544857.post-49959612068973837312009-02-01T10:37:00.000-05:002009-02-01T10:37:00.000-05:00Glad things are going well.

I've only gone into BRU by extreme necessity to buy a shower gift, but I do think it really is a one-stop shop (it seems) and you're going to have a blast picking stuff out for your little ones! <BR/><BR/>Please do post a baby bump - living vicariously through you for now. :)<BR/><BR/>I posted about the octuplet mom when the story broke. Any woman who decides to play Russian roulette with the lives and health of her babies by allowing a high order multiple pregnancy in the first place is disgusting (Jon & Kate have 6 healthy ones but their behavior was no less callous - irresponsible behavior should not be judged in hindsight). These cases will inspire laws and regulations - more red tape, cost, time and emotional distress for those suffering infertility who, by and large, behave responsibly.Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18288560043939554132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329289030321544857.post-44717790760333405932009-02-01T08:36:00.000-05:002009-02-01T08:36:00.000-05:00I think she did do IVF.

At any rate, she's ruining it for people like me, who are hoping and praying there will be a nationwide mandate for insurance coverage but instead, this is how infertility treatments get portrayed?? Geez. We've spent 70,000+ of our own money and our state has a crappy soft mandate only--completely useless. Anyway, enough about me and my crappy, choice-less situation.
