Not in this lifetime, or the next, or the next . . .

Belinda said...

I'm more of an armchair athlete these days.

Belinda said...

And oh my gosh, did anyone see the size of the shoulders of some of those male olympic swimmers?!

Belinda said...

Monstrously huge! Their swimsuits do emphasize their shoulders, but stil - they're massive.

Belinda said...

Well, I think I'll wrap up - have a good night all:)

Michelle... said...

I just love giveaways!

Michelle... said...

Did you watch the men's gymnastics? Talk about huge arms!

Michelle... said...

I watched the olympic synchronized diving on Sunday. It is amazing what they do.

Michelle... said...

What is it about the olympics that is so addicting?

Anonymous said...

Oh, dear Lord, it has adjustable handles! I LOVE that!!! Hubs and I are both tall, and pushing our stroller just about kills our backs.

We've used the same stroller for the last seven years, thru two kids, innumerable trips to the zoo, two trips to D.C., a trip to Virginia, many trips to Nashville, etc... It's survived many, many airplane rides.

Ours has some battle scars, though. Not only is the pattern seriously outdated (can we say hunter green plaid, anyone?) but there are massive holes in all the fabric panels.

Please, please, PUHLEEEEEEZE pick me!

i really love the stand up feature, makes it easier to store and put away. sounds like a very good stroller, we spent as much on my grandson's and it is soooooooo bulky, and heavy and falls over always when i am trying to put it away. i would love this for our next one which my daughter says she is thinking about

I would LOVE this stroller. I love the reflectors as I like to walk more toward night time to let my kids unwind. I also love the hammock-like seat. I would love a stroll in it myself :).

Morning!!

Still really really really loving this stroller.

Carrie said...

We're expecting #3 and I have two active boys already who make me nervous in mall parking lots. I would love the quick set-up, as well as the self-standing feature. Manueverability is always key for us as well - I like the look of the wheels on this one.

Anonymous said...

i need a stroller so badly and one that folds easily and is only 16 lbs sounds perfect!!!

Sweetpeas said...

I love the all terrain wheels! So nice for nature walks around our property :)

Sky said...

My 8 year old put two cans of soda in the FREEZER last night when we came home from the store. This morning I had an absolutely WONDERFUL surprise when I opend up the freezer for some waffles. Yeah, absolutely everything had to come out of the freezer and be washed. What a mess!

Sky said...

I couldn't be mad either, because nothing like that has ever happened before.

Only a few more hours until I find out whether or not I will have a job anymore...

Sky said...

I love my job...but sometimes the general public...oh my!

Belinda said...

Here I am, still swooning over this sweet stroller:)

Belinda said...

How about a really generic comment now? Ok, here goes: Pick me, pick me!

Belinda said...

Bet you never saw that comment before . . .

Belinda said...

Sometimes I find the word verification characters quite impossible to read . . is it just me?

Belinda said...

I will now stop neglecting my sweet daughter and we will play legos.

Belinda said...

So long, farewell, auf wiedersehn, good night:)

fuz&michelle said...

I love that its so easy to fold, lightweight and the aesthetics :)

I like that the stroller is adaptable with Graco® SnugRide® and Graco SafeSeat™ infant car seats and the fact that it's so lightweight.

I like the weight of the stroller. Light weight so easy to take in and out of the car.

My brother broke his toe. He placed the picture of it on facebook. Can you say "Ewwwww!"

The new mantra for him and his buds..."Friends don't let friends play football without shoes."

Drinking and Playing Ball = a bad combo!

Kristle said...

I'm back again today. :D

Kristle said...

So my 15 month old brough me a lovely surprise a little while ago....

Kristle said...

Anyone wanna guess what it was?
It definately grossed me out...

Kristle said...

He was running around in only a diaper, as we had just returned from the pool...

Kristle said...

And I had just sat down to check my email when he comes over and puts his hand on my leg...

Kristle said...

His hand was yucky from something, but I was too into my email to pay much attention...

Kristle said...

that is until the smell hit me...

Kristle said...

And then I looked down to find him stark naked.... with poo all over his hands, feet, and legs...

Kristle said...

And it's now of course all over my leg and arm where he touched me...
Total yuck. Gag gag gag

Kristle said...

So i picked him up and headed straight for the bathroom where we both jumped in the shower..

Kristle said...

It dawned on me while cleaning us up that I had not even bothered to see WHERE the rest of the poo was...

Kristle said...

But I found it easily as there were pooey footprints leading right back to the scene of the crime...

Kristle said...

His big brother's bedroom... Right on the carpet... trailing all the way through the hall and into the living room... :/

Kristle said...

Needless to say, I was on my hands and knees with a bottle of resolve and a rag... And now my back hurts.

Kristle said...

But I got it all cleaned up!!

Kristle said...

Enjoy that nice story, did ya? Probably grossed alot of people out. Don't worry, I was plenty grossed out myself...

Kristle said...

Oh, the situations you deal with once your name is changed to Mom.

Kristle said...

But.. I think I'm done for now. Hope everyone is having a nice evening. :) I'm off to start dinner before hubby gets home.

I so wanted to comment last night, but we had some severe storms roll in...lots of lightning!

Sky said...

You know how I've talked about a song always playing in my head? I've got Tom Petty's You Don't Know How it Feels in there now. Just like a little rock concert...

I hope that this doesn't get it into your head!

Sky said...

Finally, little Miss Pea is down for a nap...Whew!! I thought she'd wanna par-tay all day!

Sky said...

I love shopping, yes I do!! I love shopping...how 'bout you??

Belinda said...

Hello again CSC! We're back!

Belinda said...

My shoulder is killing me . . .

Belinda said...

Too much tapping away on the keyboard.

Belinda said...

Morning, noon and night - type, type, type.

Belinda said...

This is where spend way too much time!

Belinda said...

Darling daughter is napping.

Belinda said...

I hope it's a good long one.

Belinda said...

She needs it!

Belinda said...

And so does mommy!

Belinda said...

Guess I should do some dishes:)

Belinda said...

But this is way more fun.

Belinda said...

OK, summoning up the will power to head over to the dirty dishes . . .

Belinda said...

Blowing kisses to the Micralite Fastfold - mwah!

Belinda said...

Sigh - I hate doing dishes . . .

Still have so much to get for the baby.

A stroller would certainly help with the expense!

I have to choose whether I'd like to work on Monday...should I?? Or shouldn't I??

Sky said...

I love diaper bags and purses...So many out there, but there's only so much money...

Anonymous said...

I love the fact that, when done right, it folds up fast and easy. It's always really important to have a hand-free in case of emergency! :)

Thanks!

Sky said...

Okay, I bit the bullet...I'm working on Monday. Eugggg...

That's John's first day of school too.

Sky said...

I love the first day of school...it's almost magical.

Sky said...

I don't think it's so magical for the kids.

Sky said...

I really like it when men wear nice smelling cologne.

Sky said...

It's such a change from the stinky people who use the library. Believe me, there are more than can ever be described!

Sky said...

I really, really love my job. It's wonderful to work with books all the time

Sky said...

I hope my duaghter is more of a reader than my son.

Sky said...

Of course she's dreaming in her little 11 month old mind of the Micralite!

Sky said...

I HAVE to get packages mailed out tomorrow, my poor Viginia (that's our van) is sick and tired of hauling them around.

Sky said...

For only living 2 blocks from the post office, I have the hardest time getting there!

Sky said...

Maybe if I had a nice new Micralite I'd be able to go!! LMAO!!

Sky said...

I've supposed to write my bio for the lady I'm going to play on the cemetery tour. I've always wanted to play a Madame.

Today, after giving my daughter a bath, I put her on the floor to play so I could get her clothes. I come back and she's in the dog's kennel. Naked. I told her to come see Mama, and she looked at me and pulled the door shut. I honestly don't know why we buy that child toys. She's happy with the dog kennel!

Oh, never mind...I can't count!! LOL...I've been here too long!

Steph Glazier-Collao said...

Three words: I must have this. Ok, that was four.

When I was pregnant this year I tested out about twenty strollers, all that were cute, stylish, fancy, bells and whistles...nothing worked. They just didn't feel right for a tall gal like me, and certainly didn't work with the back problems I have been suffering from.

The first time I 'push tested' the Micralite FastFold I nearly cried because I had finally found the ONE stroller that didn't kill my back, and that was comfortable with my height...oh, and also I cried because it was too expensive :) The adjustable handles were amazing, which are the saving feature for me.

I lost the pregnancy a few months back...but I am on the right track again after a lot of medical testing etc. Although I will have some medical challenges when I am pregnant again, I can relax with the knowledge that I have found the perfect stroller for me, and my baby-to-be. One less thing for me to worry about.

Thank you for the amazing giveaway, even if it doesn't end up going to me.

Popular...I love that song!

It's absolutely heart wrenching when she screams Fiero!! Oh, I just wanna cry!

Sky said...

I saw Wicked in Denver when I was pregnant and to this day I can play any of the songs and it gets Miss Pea's attention. Coinkinky Dink???

Nah, that girl loves the music.

She also loves Tori Amos. Powerful stuff!

Atasha said...

My baby will most likely be here next week

Atasha said...

I was thinking that this stroller would be perfect....

Atasha said...

for when I start to get back into shape.

Atasha said...

It would be ideal for my laps around the lake.

Atasha said...

especially with those wonderfully large back tires

Atasha said...

It should produce a very smooth ride :-

Sky said...

Good Morning, Sunshine!

Sky said...

How's it hip hopping today??

Sky said...

We're in for yet another cool summer day. Pretty unusual for us.

Sky said...

I've got to get my kiddies up so we can finish Johnny's school shopping.

Sky said...

I'm making some pencil bouquets for his teacher. I've got some cute notepads that I picked up at Target and I'm going to hot glue gun them to the pencils...I hope it works!

Sky said...

Another priority...Post Office.

freaaa1 said...

I like how it folds up

Sky said...

No good deed goes unpunished...

Sky said...

I'm getting a tattoo in October, have I mentioned this before...I can't remember, my kid's names on each wrist. I'd love to get Defy Gravity in gree somewhere, but where??

Sky said...

Right now, I have some wanna be gangsters in the tech center...I swear, they have NO RESPECT! If I hear the F*bomb one more time I'm gonna whack them on the back of the head!

Belinda said...

Oh man, do I need this!

Belinda said...

We were at the park today.

Belinda said...

And I am sooo tired of negotoiating our stroller down the trail.

Belinda said...

I swear the wheels are the size of a quarter . .

Belinda said...

And as for wheeling the stroller over anything other than smooth concrete.

Belinda said...

It's like I'm trying to tame a bucking bronco.

Belinda said...

I guess it makes for an interesting ride for my daughter:)

Belinda said...

She holds on for dear life during such excursions.

Belinda said...

And I've probably scarred her forever with the colorful language this stroller inspires in me.

Belinda said...

OK, I try to censor myself, but every now and then, several toe stubbings later . . .

Belinda said...

It just can't be helped!

Belinda said...

Speaking of my darling child.

Belinda said...

She is summoning me.

Belinda said...

It seems she needed her beverage.

Belinda said...

It was up on a counter top.
