It's no secret that Matt and I aren't exactly well versed in all things baby. We only have about a (small) hand full of people in our lives with kids. Now, that might say something about our social group or it could be that we are about to be in for a major baby boom! That being said - we have ZERO clue when it comes to the overwhelming world of baby gear. I pretty much just ask everyone I know with little ones about what they use and like - resulting in a very good cross section of prices, styles, etc. Well, enter the UppaBaby. I had never heard of this holy grail of strollers until my wonderful boss, Jae got one for her little Thomas. She has been adamant that this is the only stroller to get and my research has convinced me, too. I love this stroller. Wow, I have NEVER uttered those words in my life. What I don't love about it - the price tag! I will not post the price here, because my family and in-laws are reading this and they might just have a heart attack. I will let you, dear readers, google it. The Pros: the UppaBaby includes a bassinet, the baby can face either direction, it folds up compactly, it's the only stroller that gets an "A" grade in my baby product book (get this book if you are pregnant or have kids, it's awesome), grows with your family (you won't have to get another one), foam tires, and it only weighs 20lbs! The Cons: the price. I am scouring Craigslist as we speak! Behold the greatness:
We are off to the 2010 Shepherd Center Derby Day on this overcast Saturday! I am liking "Backtalk" just because that is such a sweet name. No mint juleps for me this year but I am looking forward to to watching the races out in a field. With a bunch of drunk people. And Yacht Rock (if you don't know, please see the awesomeness here).

I've heard that it's a great set - however, the the bassinet doesn't double as a car seat, does it? (see - I have a kid and I still have no clue) The best part about ours, I believe, is that we could take Jack out of the car and into a stroller in the same seat without disrupting his sleep.
It actually has a car seat adapter that lets you use Graco and a few other car seats. Trust me I am looking for a reason to hate this thing.
Dog, you look pretty here. Very Demi Moore naked-and-pregnant-on-the-cover-of-a-magazine-esque.
Oh thanks, dog. Now if I could only get my body to look like her's afterwards.
