Woke up birthday morning to discover my bike downstairs.... along with a trailer!!! I was, and still am, ecstatic! I used to ride my bike ALL the time, but I stopped riding the second I found out I was pregnant with E (might have been a bit too cautious with the first). That being said, it means so much to me to be able to enjoy what I used to and bring the little one along with me (hopefully, he'll enjoy biking as much one day)!
We put 10+miles on it to break it in.
And, we are going to pimp it out, too- we'll be sporting the Cubbie flag :)
Some randomness:
I love my boy, just don't care to share everything with him ;) Is it mean of me if I sometimes pretend to eat what he offers me with his slimy hands and then secretly dispose of it down the good ol' garbage disposal?!?
E is a magnet to water these days, especially when it comes to wading.

Ok, EP & L's moms, we need to take a year-photo of the boys!
He likes to play with all the toys, puppets, and sit at the preschool table to work diligently on puzzles which I think is oh-so-cute!
No, it is not the camera jiggling- it's E pulling out the moves to his new favorite toy, Wheelies.
He just loves the jingle on the FP Little People Wheelies homepage DVD! He is mesmerized by it.
I have never felt the urge to buy him a toy, and I've always wondered why I see parents relentlessly giving ino their children's desires, until now, and it is so hard not to just go buy it for him, and I really don't want to get into the parental bad-habit of, 'You've been such a good, sweet boy. Santa can't wait till Christmas'. Ha.
