the bob …

September 2, 2010

so, my husband got me the bob revolution double jogging stroller from my birthday and anniversary. and, i love it! i’ve been wanting one forever and i am so excited to finally have one.
they are so nice, and the shocks alone on this thing makes it worth it. it’s a nice smooth ride for my kiddos and it’s super easy to push considering all the weight i have in there.
i still love my phil and teds {yes, i have a lot of strollers}, but mainly for going to places like the mall, where i have to open doors by myself and weave in and out of tight places, like clothing racks. and, it is always nice to drop one seat and use it as a single.
so, what is your favorite double stroller?

book review: the maze runner …

August 31, 2010

i actually read this book a few months ago, but i am just now getting around to writing a little book review.if you liked the hunger games , and want some fast easy reading, then you’ll enjoy this book, the maze runner by james dashner. here is a brief library summary:Thomas wakes up in an elevator, remembering nothing but his own name. He emerges into a world of about 60 teen boys who have learned to survive in a completely enclosed environment, subsisting on their own agriculture and supplies from below. A new boy arrives every 30 days. The original group has been in “the glade” for two years, trying to find a way to escape through a maze that surrounds their living space. They have begun to give up hope. Then a comatose girl arrives with a strange note, and their world begins to change. There are some great, fast-paced action scenes, particularly those involving the nightmarish Grievers who plague the boys. Thomas is a likable protagonist who uses the information available to him and his relationships (including his ties to the girl, Teresa) to lead the Gladers.******the plot is definately interesting, and a fast read. there will definitely be a sequel, so you are left with some unanswered questions, so i hope they are answered in the next book.plus, i heard the author is a local guy, so that is good. i’m all about supporting locals!so, have you read it? did you like it?and, what are you reading?
