Bike trainer recs
I'm (finally) getting a bike trainer. I figure it is going to be the easiest way to get in a decent cardio workout for now while my son is attached to me constantly. What are your recommendations? I'll probably be using it more than riding outside for the next couple months.

You don't really need a ton of accessories. The only thing I have is a block to raise the front wheel with. Technically, you can use thick books or a phone book, but I find that the front wheel moves around if I do that. I prefer a block; it's worth the $25. If you have carpet, you don't need a mat. Buy a cheap, really large beach towel to put under the trainer. I got mine for about $4 at Walm*rt. If you don't put something under it, you could get grease or grime on the carpet.
You will also need an old tire. Trainers wear out tires and will kill any good tire. Either buy a special "Trainer" tire or just use one of your old tires you were going to throw out. I recommend the latter b/c I'm cheap.
