Lucas and Brodie took great morning naps while I ran for 1 hour 15 minutes on Saturday, and rode my bike 1 hour 30 minutes on Sunday. They pretty much slept right through the entire run and bike ride. I had two well rested kids, and two very tired pair of legs by the end of the...

This morning, the triplets rode their bikes to school. They were so excited.
When we practiced this the week before school was in session, I wasn't thinking straight. I was fantasizing about my school days riding my bike to school. Of course, I started doing that when...

Last Sunday I raced the Howell Mountain Challenge on my single speed mountain in Anguin. As I pedaled up the first hill at the start of the race, my husband and the boys were at the top cheering me on, with a large sign that said, "Go Mom, Go!" This was the most memorable...

Suddenly sticks, rocks, and several water balloons came flying full speed from the bluffs, bursting open as they hit the ground around us. I immediately came to a stop, freaking out, yelling at the top of my lungs, "Stop! There are babies!" The group of teens who were...

Last Tuesday was quite the adventure. I thought the Chariot was hooked up and ready to roll until it got stuck between the rear wheels of mine and my husband's cars parked in the garage. By the time I got it unstuck, we were 20 minutes behind our scheduled departure time. I had...

Today I rode my bike with Brodie and Lucas in tow to the Breast Feeding Moms Group at Busy Bees Studio. Since this was a new route for us, and I was unsure how long it would take us to ride there, we ended up arriving 30 minutes early. I wasn't quite sure what to do to pass the time,...

The cost of gas has pushed me over the edge. As a result I decided to make a change. I can't control the cost of gas, but I can control how often I drive. So my goal is to drive my car less: no more than 2 times Mon-Fri and once during the weekend. It's possible to get out of...

Brodie and Lucas woke up at 4:45 AM. I would have rather stayed in bed sleeping. After changing diapers ad nursing the kids, Brodie fell back asleep! No such luck with Lucas. He was wide awake and doing baby acrobatics rolling all over the family room floor.
At 6:00 AM I...

Their last feeding was 7:30 AM. By the time I packed their diaper bag and ice chest, it was 8 AM before I left the house. As I drove up Hwy 80 to Foresthill, I couldn't stop obsessing about what time they would get hungry again. Was my husband going to be able to handle the...

After nursing the twins, I left the house early this morning for a bike ride by myself. My husband stayed home with the twins. As I rolled out the door, the three of them were playing on the floor. I mentioned that if they get hungry, he can feed them rice cereal or apple...

Last week was our first camping trip with our 8 month old twin boys. Getting packed for our trip was a feat in itself! We left on Thursday morning with intentions of camping until Sunday at Laguna Seca, in Monterey CA. The drive to Monterey was uneventful. We arrived...

At 8:30 this morning my twins and I began our bike ride from Watt Avenue access along the American River Parkway. There was a bit of a breeze, but it felt good. As we rode up the bike trail the breeze quickly turned into a strong, gusty wind. We rode against the wind all the way...
