Merry Christmas to Us

We gifted ourselves with a Christmas present last week: a fluid bike trainer. It could be that you, like I, have no idea what a fluid bike trainer is. Now that I am so knowledgeable, I'd like to pass on my wisdom...a bike trainer is a stand that you put your bike on to allow you to ride your bike in a stationary position. If you're curious about how this is different then a traditional stationary bike, wikipedia has a general overview.
Here's a close-up of the trainer...not that much to it.

Another plus is that the girls can join in on the garage, exersicing experience. (Just stay away from the saw hanging in the background)

Bunk Beds for the girls

I knew adding exercising to my weekly routine would cut into my blogging time, but apparently exercising and Christmas preparations just about eliminate blogging opportunities. So here's a quick post just to say "hi".

We were able to get a great set of bunk beds from our good friends, the Logozzo's. Brad's mom provided the ultra-cute bedspreads and now we have a cute room for the girls to share. (Sadie still sleeps in the pack-n-play in the room, but we're working on changing to the lower bunk).
