    Wink My Stroller

    My Foundations Quad came today. Finally. I am in LOVE.

    I have no idea what people were talking about when they said that this stroller is difficult to turn. I can turn it with one hand!! All the kids are excited about it. They really like sitting beside one of their buddies.

    It's a little heavy for me to carry up and down my stairs, even empty, but I think that's to be expected with a quadruple stroller.

    Anyway, I can't think of any other group of people who might understand how exciting this is, so I thought I'd share.

    Whoot Whoot - that is awesome nothing better than FREEDOM!

    Just my motherly advice cause I cannot help myself - we are not pack mules and are not designed to be pushing 4 children who are weighing over 30 pounds each - take care of your BACK and remember that just because you have the space for four to RIDE now does not mean you need to be busting your hump allowing ALL of them to ride - if they are old enough and capable of walking and therefore weighs too much to still be being 'pushed' in a stroller make em walk most if not all of the way with the buggy as a back up
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."

    LOL - ya our own are always more challenging ... my 22 month old DCB can walk 2.5 km to the OEYC by my house in under 30 minutes although the walk BACK takes us about 40 though cause they are going at slower pace by than cause they walked there played for two hours and are now walking back again ... but my deal is if you want to go fun places you gotta walk cause my back cannot push 'big kids' who can walk anymore so if they do not walk we do not go places and even though I have the van now I will not 'drive' a distance I know that they are capable of walking cause I want to promote healthy exercise and so forth and well I can use the exercise too just not the 'pushing' 150 pounds extra while I am doing it
