I'm so excited! But it's rainy so I'm not sure we'll be able to test it outside. That's what the living room is for, I suppose.
FYI-I live in North Carolina so the ship time to me is super fast from Debbie's shop.

Here's my review for those of you who may be shopping right now. I ordered the Air Jumbo with seatbelt, footrest, pushbar, and bell. I'm very happy I went with the Jumbo instead of the Happy. I think the seat on the Jumbo is great for DD. It fits her great and she can sit very upright and look around. The seatbelt is a must have. DD has already tried to get out by herself but she's not quite coordinated enough to get on and off without help. I like the foot rest. DD's legs are not quite long enough to rest on the pedals. She will swing her feet if they are hanging so if she did that without the foot rest, I could see her kicking into the front tire while we're rolling. The pushbar works fine. I debated getting the stroller bar but decided against spending the extra $$. It's very easy to push. We went on our regular walk that we usually do with the Bugaboo and it was not more strenuous for me. I did have to pay closer attention to where we were walking because even with the front wheel locked, there is still a bit of play and sometimes you don't go exactly straight. We also went off road and the air tires bumps along pretty smoothly. I'm glad we spent the money and got this for DD. I can see that this will get a lot of use by her, her little friends, possibly a future sibling, and then get passed on to her cousins yet to be.
