My mom and I went to Babies R' Us this morning and spent almost an hour with an employee there testing out different strollers and car seats. Not the most exciting thing, but very necessary.
Strollers
I went with two in mind, but they were both very awkward to collapse and expand back. Luckily for me, the lady demonstrating pointed out another stroller, the Maxi-Cosi Foray. It collapses down to the height of only the tallest wheel (about 12") which gives almost 3" of total space above and below, so I wouldn't have to worry about scratching up my car. Another good thing is that the wheels are inflatable like bike tires, which make it ride REALLY smoothly.
The downside is the cost ($400). But I don't want to have to buy a new car to fit a stroller. It -is- $20 less ($379.99) at costco.ca, but I'm not sure if you need to have a Costco membership to buy it from there. It's also $379.99 at the Baby Boutique (I emailed and asked).
We've added the stroller to our registry.
Car Seats
The car seat that fits in the stroller, the Maxi-Cosi Mico, has been purchased off our registry.
I'm so excited! :-)
