Recommend your "umbrella stroller"
Now that LO is growing out of his car seat, which when we are out I put on the snap and go frame I am looking into getting some type of lightweight, easy stroller. I have a 3 1/2 year old and so when we do little outings during the week he doesnt need to be in our double stroller, he wants to walk. Which one do you have and do you like it? Thanks!!

Re: Recommend your "umbrella stroller"
I've heard great things about the chicco liteway, but its a little on the pricey side for an umbrella stroller. We got this one:

Its VERY similar to the chicco for a little less. The only difference i saw was the sun shade doesn't have a peep window and might be a little smaller. It fully reclines which I think is nice, especiallly for vacations if you have a napping baby.
We got the same one when we needed a lightweight stroller for the airport. It's perfect for DH and I because we are both very tall. We tried other umbrella strollers, but the handles were too short or our knees would hit the stroller when walking. It is on the pricey side, but well worth it!
We have a Combi cosmo ex.
Love it!
Pros: full recline, grab bar with 2 cupholders(great also for snacks--its also removeable), adult cupholder, decent underneath storage, folds super small, pretty light, has a strap so when its folded you can sling it over your shoulder, decent sun canopy, the seat cover totally removes and is washable.
Cons: not too many. I would love for the canopy to have even more coverage, but its one of the better ones out there as far as umbrella strollers. My friend has a Mcclaren, and its better than hers.
You can get away with steering with one hand (as advertised) but its much easier with two.
