Are you staying onsite or off?

We are staying off-site at a vacation home rental as there will be 4 adults, my teenage son and then dh & I with the two little ones.

LOL, my boys were almost the exact sizes of yours at those ages! Have you thought about looking into resale shops? You might could find one of the nice brands for less and then maybe buy a new umbrella type one too? I can totally relate to your delimma. My boys will be 5 and almost 3 if we get to go this spring and I have been trying to figure out what to do for them. We used an umbrella and a larger Graco last trip. The footrest on the umbrella is broken and we don't want to take the larger one because it is so bulky when taking the buses to and from the parks. I am hoping to find a Maclaren resale and then we might rent for my oldest.

Good luck!

We used two cheap umbrellas for my 2 & 3 yo, but they're so small that I didn't have to worry about how they fit.

when i stayed at a vacation home last year the owners had a stroler there for people to use you might want to check if yours will have one. also if you are driving and are going to buy a stroler id wait till you get to florida then stop at walmart. you can get an umbralla stroller for 15 bucks or so there
