The Recliner

18 Jan

The new recliner/glider/rocker is now in the house. It was convenient that it arrived right before the two football games today- Kerry decided to keep it in the living room for a few hours to ‘break it in’ and ‘make sure it was comfortable.’ It was football, chili, a fire in the fireplace and a recliner and he was completely happy.

bellyIt has been a pretty quiet weekend at the house due to the Inauguration and not being able to easily get around town so we do not have a whole lot to update. In a few weeks we head to Charleston and so far we have plans for a ghost tour, a tour of the Hunley submarine and a trip to Fort Sumter. Let us know if you have any other suggestions!

We got a jogging stroller

18 Jan

I now am getting a daily dose of baby-related products ads in my inbox but on Friday I got one for 20% off of the BOB jogging stroller. For those of you unfamiliar with ‘baby gear’ this stroller has a cult following. And, they never go on sale, the used ones sell for almost the same price as the new ones and they are known as the ‘only jogging stroller.’ When we started researching jogging strollers, our running friends who have kids and all the reviews online simply say, ‘you have to get the BOB.’ RightStart has all the BOB strollers for 20% off and we ordered the Ironman yesterday. So, it should be here next week and luckily we have the storage to keep it until the spring. Plus, the infant car seat adapter makes it so we can start using it right away. Here is your preview:
