Getting ready for back to school was on my priority list, but I was slow getting to it this year because I was enjoying so much my summer!But in the end, I did want my kids to get back to school prepared in every way. Mom switched gears and sprang into action!
Supplies, uniforms, first week menus, summer homework, medical forms, done, done, done and done. The night before the first day of school uniforms were washes, ironed and ready in each room. The book bags were loaded and zipped. Fresh towels hung and all the morning amenities full and in place. My agenda for the next morning was clear: drop kids off at school, go for my first jog of the year. Mom’s work out outfit was ready in place and our brand new B -Agile Britax stroller ready by the door for baby to come with me on the jog. Our #BTSConBritax was under control.
The next morning (First day of school) it was crazy! We rushed the showers, dressing up, and breakfast. The kids took their sweet time brushing their teeth and coming to the door. “Get your book bag, tie your shoe, one at the door, where’s the baby? Honey hurry!” Finally out the door for our short and first walk to school. For my warm up sprint, the eldest decided he dint’ want to push baby slowly. He simply took off running pushing the stroller. Baby was strapped in comfortably and safely with Britax No re-thread, adjustable, five-point harness and head pad with reflective binding, so the reason I took off was because I wanted us all in a group, and yes, we were almost out of the park we walk through.
We arrived at school all smiles, wishing everyone a fabulous year. Off I went for my jog. It was so invigorating and good for me! I had a little companion and the smooth ride of the B-Agile made it so easy for me to maneuver over cracks branches and rock. It really was a pleasure pushing my little one in his stroller. The extra large canopy with ventilation protected him from the sun and gave total comfort that allowed him to take a good nap while I worked out. I think it must have been the the 3 wheel suspension that gave him that nap luxury. He is not a napper.
The morning had gone as planned…..until I got home and saw the camera sitting on the foyer table. My heart sank. I forgot the first day of school pictures! Well, the day wasn’t over yet, so I got to work and created a backdrop of sorts on our garage floor, so each kid could pose for the missed photo.
Now I couldn’t wait for the kids to get home so I could have my photo shoot! Thankfully for the first day we had early release, so I could hear all the stories of the first day, the welcome they each received in their classrooms and of course mark the day with my pictures!

My kids went off to school on Wednesday and so far so good. Mine have been out of a stroller for many years, but that looks like a nice one.
My kids have been back at school for just over a week now. Which means that it’s just me & the toddler during the day. We’ve been going for walks, but not very long because I make her walk & our stroller aggravates me. I may need to look into this so I can actually get a good walk in.
I don’t have anything Britax but I hear such great things! My kids go back to school Tuesday and I am so not ready!
My kids start on Wednesday. That stroller looks very cool.
My kids started 2 weeks ago, which made me very happy, jhahhahha this stroller looks so good and firm, I think it is perfect for those mamís that want to go for a walk in the mornings as week.. Thanks for sharing
que nice mi nieto ya comenzo la escuela la semana pasada feliz regreso a clases!
Love Britax! How did yall get lucky and get out early on the first day of school! Our B2S has been exhausting. We all are thankful for the Labor Day holiday on monday!
Awesome stroller you have there! My son doesn’t start preschool for a couple more weeks, but we are getting ready.
We started school this week. It is such a great feeling to have them on a schedule. Amber N
My son started last week and so far he is liking it though he is exhausted from all the work.
That’s an awesome stroller! Much better than the bulky, uncomfortable ones I had to use for my daughter, a good bit back.
My 7 year old starts school first grade this year. I do photography as a hobby but I enjoy it so much I always keep my camera in my bag. My daughter is great at having her picture taken side walk chalk was used almost every day this summer. I think I’ll write it on our front door as it’s brown and I can simply wash it off. First day of school photos and last day usually are always the two favorites of the year as I compare and contrast how big she’s grown from start to finished.
Britax is a great brand for baby gear! Thanks for sharing this info!
Nice stroller! I’ve heard great things about Britax, specially their car seats
That looks like a nice stroller! I’ve never heard of Britax before.
Great tips! My boys have been back to school for a week and a half now.
Sounds like you had a great day! No kids here, so back to school means we leave a bit earlier for work in the morning so we’re not rushing around busses and kiddos!
Hard to believe the summer flew by so fast. The kids start back to school in just a few days, amazing!
Wow, that is a fabulous stroller. Sounds like a hectic day turned in to a good day with some special time to talk about the big first day.
I always try to make the First Day of School a memorable one. We do specials activities this day.
What a lovely stroller – I don’t have kids so no getting ready for school here, but lots of activity going on around with people getting ready. x
My girls are both seniors this year (one in college and one in high school) so I just had them text me their first day of school pictures so I wasn’t the only mom who didn’t post pics.
We go back next Wednesday! Us teachers have been in since the middle of August. I am looking forward to the start of it and to see all my new kiddos.
I love that it went over the cracks, branches, and things without a challenge!! It’s the worst when it doesn’t (been there, done that). 🙂
Estamos mas que ready para el BTS el proximo jueves, me recordaste no olvidar mi camara jeje!
Que lindo el regreso a clases!!
Nice stroller!
Me encanta el stroller y todos los productos de Britax! 😉
¡FELIZ DÍA!ॐ

Looks like an awesome stroller!
I’m personally thrilled to be past the stroller stage, but this looks like a great one to have! I’ve always been a fan of Britax products.
Oh strollers. Haven’t pushed one in a decade. This one looks awesome though!
Britax sounds like an awesome brand!
Looks like a great stroller! My kids have been back to school for two weeks now and I miss them! But it is so good to be back on schedule. I think it is a great idea to go on a run right after you drop them off!
This looks amazing, I will def have to mention this to my friends that are moms! I think they would really love it!
Great way to celebrate
