Triple Jogger

With the arrival of Julia, Annie has found it difficult to get out of the house without an automobile. Three small kids can be a challenge to take on a walk. After much research and deliberation (and a lot of approval from her sisters and mom - always eager to spend our money :) ), Annie decided to purchase a triple jogger.



















It arrived last weekend, and I assembled it while Annie was out. The girls loved it and sat in it for over half an hour - strapped in. Annie is now able to go on long walks, get errands done, and just get out of the house more. Quite a change in lifestyle. It seems to be of pretty good quality and this brand comes highly recommended. The only problem is that it is too wide to fit down the walkway to our front door.

I tried to talk Annie into buying a quadruple jogger, with one compartment big enough for me, but she wouldn't hear it.

Talk about a wide load! How do you guys grocery shop? Does Annie take all 3? I can handle taking two, but Amara complains about getting squished when she sits in the main basket on a big trip. I imagine it would get pretty crowded with 3 kids in the cart. I guess some stores have carts w/ seats for multiple kids...

Annie takes all three to Bel-Air. They have carts that have been reconfigured to look like cars. There are seats for two in front of the handle bar, and room enough for Julia and the groceries in the basket. Otherwise, she has to find a sitter.

I think she should have gotten one big enough for my next grandchild(ren). Maybe a 5 seater!

I am working on a stackable design - a double-decker jogger.
