As for today, we sprung out of bed around 7:00 and took Newts for a 1 mile walk, accompanied by Flora's new stroller-the 2012 Uppa Vista in Mica. It was our first test run with the stroller out of the house and it went well. Newton didn't seem to notice it and it rides great on the curb and on uneven terrain.
Afterwards we lounged around the tv and watched a little bit of the Rose Parade, had breakfast smoothies (organic peach slices that we harvested from our tree this past Fall, blueberries, almond milk, a banana, and raspberries) and I felt the need to pour B Happy New Year shots (vodka cran). Somebody has to drink today! ;)
B had an itch to go somewhere so we cruised over to Napa Valley to pick up our champagne shipment at Domaine Carneros and enjoyed a complimentary champagne flight and some goodies. Wanting to walk as much as my body will let me these days, we went exploring through The Cornerstone Gardens which showcases several different sculptures and gardens from artists across the world. Some were pretty spectacular others I couldn't quite understand the meaning or materials that were used. Nonetheless, it was nice to stroll around and would be a fun place to go back and have a picnic with friends (and champagne!) during Spring or Summer.
We're ending the first day of the new year with yet another mile walk around the neighborhood (can you tell I'm excited to get labor started?!?), B's making dinner and the animals and I plan on snuggling up by the fire for the remainder of the evening.
Sounds great. We also have an Uppa Vista and love it! The bassinet made a great "travel bed" when he was small enough for it. We also have the car seat attachment, which is highly recommend if you don't already have it. You're ready to go!

We plan on using the bassinet for her to sleep in for the first several weeks. And yes we did get the car seat adapter, it's great! ;) such a nice stroller w/so many options, accessories and the new black chrome in the 2012 models is sweet!
