David and I leave Friday for Tortola. We will spend a glorious week sailing around the British Virgin Islands. I am ecstatic! I am also a little crazy this week getting things ready.

My Four Keys to Losing the Baby Weight

September 27, 2012

You might not have noticed, but I didn’t do an 11 month or 12 month post baby body post. I wasn’t intentionally trying to avoid it; it just seemed pointless. I’m in a good place. I have energy, I feel fit and my clothes fit well.  This doesn’t mean I don’t still have areas I want to [...]

Post Baby Body: 9 Month Postpartum

July 3, 2012

Gosh I’m getting behind in these updates. I took pictures and measurements 2 weeks ago and have yet to post them. I’m not sure why exactly, but I think it has something to do with the fact that I’m comfortable with where my body is now. My goals no longer focus around weight loss, so [...]

Post Baby Body: 6 Months Postpartum

March 22, 2012

I’ve learned a lot over the past 6 months. I’ve learned that despite my previous beliefs, I can, in fact, wake up every single day (weekends included) at 6:30am and live. I’ve learned that nipple pain, infant poop and sex drive are perfectly acceptable topics of conversation among friends. I’ve learned that raising Hailey will [...]

Now that I’ve posted Hailey’s 5 month update, it’s time for me to post by update as well. Although, to be honest, there isn’t a whole lot to update you on since there wasn’t much change this past month. Unless you noticed that I shrunk an inch or two Guess my camera angle was a [...]

Post Baby Body: 4 Months Postpartum

January 17, 2012

Sunday we celebrated Hailey’s 4 month birthday. I sang to her. She loved it. I’ll do a post this week about all that she’s been up to (because it’s quite a lot!), but this post is about Hailey’s mama. At 4 months postpartum I feel wonderful. Dare I say back to normal? Whatever normal is… [...]
