I actually got to wear non-gym clothes on a weekday! Who would have known? This top was actually a gift from the madre- it used to be hers and she knows I’m trying to camouflage my bump until it’s 100% obvious. I was just talking about embroidered tops and now I have a new-to-me…

Zumba is a giant party. I fell in love with it about 4 years ago and since then, there’s been no turning back. Source In class, you spend the entire time dancing and it’s easy to forget that you’re actually working out, burning a crazy amount of calories and blasting fat. What is Zumba? Zumba…

Hi friends 😀 How was your day? It’s hot as ballz here. Tucson summers don’t mess around, but I love them. No humidity (my hair says thank you) and the monsoons are incredible. Today was kind of a weird day. We had an ultrasound, which I was super nervous about but it ended up going…

Baby Can Zumba
4 1/2 weeks: 12 1/2 weeks: There’s a legit baby in there 🙂 It was so crazy to go to today’s ultrasound and see a REAL baby. No lentil, no little bean… a baby. And my experience with today’s ultrasound compared to the one I had almost a month ago: night and day. No cold…

Hi friends 😀 How are you? Hope you had a lovely Sunday <3 My day was full of what summer dreams are made of… sleeping in a noodly yoga class floating on a raft in the pool while gabbing with a friend and watermelon fresh from the farmer’s market 😀 The Pilot and I shared…

June 26: Trying to detour Worry City
So the entire time I’ve been pregnant, people have been commenting on how “chill” I’ve been about the whole thing. I’ve been eating what I’ve been craving, rolling with the morning sickness and fatigue (which is starting to go away!), stopped reading baby books and websites 24/7 and am trying to relax a little more.…
