I have been researching backpack carrier/stroller combos lately.  Something like this fits our lifestyle perfectly.  Right now, I use a Snugli front carrier a lot and I love it!  I think Mia loves it too.  She can see and she is close to me, but before too long, she will be too heavy for the ones we have now.  Most have a weight restriction of 20lbs give or take a few and she is weighing in at 17.5lbs as of two weeks ago.  Time to find and alternative and it would be nice to have the flexibility of a stroller as well as the carrier.  This brings me to the fun things I have found:

The Taga bicylce/stroller.  This one seems like the perfect combination for Grandma Sina and Grandpa Don:

Or this Kelty Carrier…

This is a fun little stroller too.  It is made by Quick Smart.  Their strollers fold up small and fit into a backpack:

I think this one is the winner for my family.  It is the InStep Carrier / Stroller combo.  It gets rave reviews and happens to be available at a Once Upon a Child (a second hand store for kids).  Something like this would be great for hiking, walking around town, and vacations with Papa Cubby and Grandma Vickie.
