I was thrilled to be included in the Runner Mom blog series over at www.fitandfaithfulfitnessconsulting.com. I remember when Chelsey of @fitandfaithfulfitness and I found each other years ago. I loved the “run with endurance” tanks she was making and somehow convinced her to swap tanks with me. One of mine for one of hers. I definitely got […]
“Oh you will know when you are having a contraction,” they all said to me, “you will definitely know.” Welp, guess what humans of America, I didn’t “definitely know” anything. Thursday, July 14, 2016 4:45 am: I woke up with a strange uncomfortable feeling in my back. My stomach was really tight, and I just thought that the baby was […]
Before ever getting pregnant, women hear hundreds of things about what the experience will be like, what to expect, problems, things you can’t do, etc. So I already had so many ideas in my head on what to expect, and many of those things turned out to not even be true in my situation. These are […]
All in all I’ve had a pretty fantastic pregnancy. So great that I almost feel guilty admitting it when people ask. I have been able to continue working out and doing yoga as much as I want. My doctor told me I was one of his healthiest patients and thus I’ve been able to travel […]
After Rome, we spent the rest of our two weeks exploring France. We flew first to Toulouse where we stayed with some friends that we met in Bilboa, Spain when traveling last summer. Toulouse is this cute bubbly town in the south of France that actually happens to be France’s fourth-largest city. It is a […]
When your doctor tells you you’re one of his healthiest patients and to go have fun, you immediately book a ticket to Europe and go on one last baby free adventure! These last two weeks traveling Italy and France were the best. You can watch some of the highlights of our trip in the youtube […]
Spring has sprung and it’s my favorite!! If I could be outside all day everyday I would…and basically am. Give me some sunshine, water, and a good book and I am one happy girl. In the spring/summer time, my favorite things to take on a picnic are simply fresh fruit and veggies! Biting into a crisp cool […]
Second trimester is officially the best. The second trimester starts in week 14 and goes through the end of week 27, and it is nothing like the grueling first trimester. If you didn’t see my post about how I struggled though feeling like a “weenie” in my first trimester, you can read that HERE. If nothing, […]
When we were in Puerto Vallarta a few weeks ago, we were lucky enough to get to do a photoshoot with the INSANELY talented @michellekimphoto and @kellydlux from the inspirational photo series project @creativemarriages. “Kelly and Michelle founded Creative Marriages out of pure curiosity — curiosity about how other married couples resolve, balance and take […]
Y’all, confession…I am a terrible water drinker. I know it’s like the number one health rule and all, but I’ve just always been so bad at actually getting in those darn 8 glasses or more a day. I just don’t ever find myself “naturally thirsty,” and would often go a whole day without even remembering […]
