My Newest Purchase

I had some Christmas money I was trying to decide what to do with.  I had planned to get a coffee maker, but I held off.  I had been thinking about getting a stationary bike, but I didn't want to spend a huge amount of money on it.  So I watched craigslist and the local classifieds online and found a very nice one for just the amount of money I had!  I bought it yesterday and couldn't be happier with it.  I have struggled to find a time to get some exercise time in.  I can't really leave the house because of the kids, and going on a walk with them doesn't work because of naps and pick up time from school.  So, I am hoping this is the answer.   Yesterday I was able to get 20 minutes in and went 6 miles.  Today I biked for 25 minutes and went 8.5 miles.  I'm feeling good about this!  I have a ticker set up on my iGoogle page to see how long it takes me to bike 1000 miles, but I haven't figured out how to put it on the blog page.  Any help would be great!

Eli and Hannah had check ups yesterday.  Eli had his 12 month well child in December but was vomiting (at the clinic) and had a double ear infection, so he wasn't really a well child.  So, at 13 months, Eli is 22.5 pounds and 29.5 inches.  He is somewhere between the 25th and 35th percentile for both.  Doing great.  Hannah is in the 75% for height and 50% for weight.  Also doing very well.  They both got shots.  Eli was a little off today, but not bad.  Hannah is a little sore on her arm, but not bad.  She's tough.

Well, I need to get the dishes cleaned up and settle down to watch an episode of CSI Miami.  Gotta love Horatio!
