I am really wanting to get a new lightweight stroller. Right now we use a Chicco Cortina that we bought as a travel set with his infant carseat. At 27 months do you think it's a waste or do you still use your stroller with older toddlers and beyond? (He is at his wanting to do everything alone, not necessarily loving hand holding and waiting in lines so my stroller is used a ton when out at the moment) Thanks for your input!
Re: Stroller thoughts- too old?
Also just having somewhere to stash all the gear.
We probably used a stroller until our kids were 3.5. Maybe even close to 4. I can't imagine pushing around a 4 or 5 year old. Once our kids hit 4 they wanted to walk by themselves everywhere - the zoo, shopping, etc. And if we were walking to the park they were riding their bike or their scooter.
Like Orangecurls said, the seat in our CityMini is pretty reclined, but we switched the straps from 5 point to 3 point a while ago so that DD could sit up when she's in there.

I just bring the carrier for the rare time one wants to be carried a bit.
Very very rarely I will use it if I have to go into a store super fast or something and want them strapped in but if it's just one I just hold them in that case
Depends entirely on the kid and your needs, but it would be a huge waste for my family.
