12/22: Meals and Fitness for the week
I continue to be awestruck at how things have come full circle. Like the fact that I was walking around Winterhaven (aka riding the trolley) last year, with a giant pregnant belly: and found myself a year later, in the same spot, with the baby we so badly wanted to meet. I thought I’d eventually…

Hi 🙂 Apologies for all of the blog issues yesterday and to those of you who were getting an error message with the comments. Hopefully things are back to normal- guess this post will let me know, eh? Along with the blog being under the weather, so is the man of the house. I roasted…

Hi! Happy Friday <3 So many fun and good things happening lately, and lots to look forward to. -Last night we met up with some friends at the zoo to check out the Christmas lights. The light display around the zoo property was absolutely gorgeous -some even blinked to Trans-Siberian Orchestra music- and Liv especially…

Lots of exciting goodies have arrived in the mail this week…. between the moose munch, Christmas gifts to wrap, the new Zumba ZIN CD and DVD (new music!!!!) and my newest Stitch Fix, I’m a pretty happy girl 🙂 Last time I posted about Stitch Fix, a few friends asked if they’d mind if I…

Hi friends <3 I loved reading your responses on this morning’s post! I had no idea so many went commando at the gym, but totally understand- the liners are there for a reason, eh? After a few responses, just wanted to clarify that I couldn’t give a flying you-know about other peopler’s panty lines. You…

Ooooh la la…. One of the frequently-asked questions when I post workout pics or a video: How do you avoid panty lines? So the secret, friends, is the picture above! Feel free to sing that Sisqo song, even though I was, like, 5 when that came out. The answer is thong underwear. If you’re not…

Still trying to get in my workouts during the day in hopes of relaxing with the Pilot at night. When Liv woke up from her first nap this morning, I figured by the time we left the house, I’d be able to get in a 30-minute workout before the gym’s childcare closed. Back in the…

It’s been a few months, so I booked an appointment with the madre to get my hair did this afternoon. (last year, I got a tiny tinsel strand) I always tell myself I’m going to do something exciting and different, and then when I’m finally in the chair, I stick with a trim. I walk…

Starbucks! They know me! Source I tend to stay away for the most part during the warmer months.. (which, let’s be real, is 97% of the time in Tucson.) I can make my own coffee at home, and save for the occasional iced green tea lemonade, it’s rare that I’ll hit up the SB drive…

Today’s big adventure involved putting a very cute little red dress on an even cuter little girl to get her Santa picture. I felt awful, as she’s not a huge fan of the man in red, and she was so happy leading up to the event itself. My mom and nana met us at the…
