After a lot of price comparing, talking between the two of us, talking to others, and researching online, we decided that a new BOB stroller was the way we wanted to go. BOB has been highly recommended by friends and we've read great reviews online. The stroller is made to handle jogging and off-road terrain pretty well, so it will be great for my runs through the park and for going to frisbee tournaments. The seats recline independently from one another (very important to me so the kids will take frisbee-field naps), the stroller pushes incredibly smoothly (important for jogging), it has a front swivel wheel for easy maneuverability (which can be locked while jogging), and there are lots of pockets (for all the stuff kids require you to carry everywhere). Basically, it has a lot of perks that are perfect for our lifestyle. Right now the strollers are on sale, and apparently BOB stroller sales are pretty rare. So Dave and I decided we needed to jump on it this week if we wanted to buy one new. We also considered the Craigslist route, but after looking into the features of the newest model (just released last year) and considering resale price for a new one in a couple years, we figured out that we wouldn't be paying a whole lot more money in the long run (after reselling) if we just bought one new instead of getting one used. And then we'd get all the new features we wanted. So purchase a new BOB we did.
Here's a pretty picture of it:

It will be arriving on our doorstep tomorrow! I think I'm going to be really tempted to put one of the dogs in it with Krew and take it for a trial run. But I'll try to resist. :)
