Like a mouse

Morning friends! How’s your weekend going so far? And who has seen Harry Potter already?! I can’t wait to see it… but I need to see part 1 first. I’m a terrible HP fan. I’ve been moving around extra quietly this morning- the Pilot and Bella are still fast asleep 🙂 I crashed out on…

Perfect Mexican rice

Hi friends 😀 How’s your night going? It’s Fiesta Friday over here! Nothing too cray cray… just me, Senor Pilot, Bell, and a boatload of Mexican food 🙂 Today, the cooking bug hit me pretty ferociously and we both agreed that fish tacos sounded amazing. I hit up Trader Joe’s to pick up the goods,…

We found out

This morning = best $70 I’ve ever spent. I’m 15 1/2 weeks along and have been DYING to find out whether the little nugget is a “she” or a “he”. For almost my entire pregnancy, I was 100% convinced it was a boy, but most recently started to doubt that and think maybe it’s a…

Sometimes it’s backwards

Hi friends 😀 How was your day?? So glad you liked the banana bread recipe and the Livewell promo- we’ve almost sold out already! My day was bueno- I ended up team teaching a super sweaty Zumba class and taught my first LaBlast class. I was so lucky to have an amazing group –they were…

Oh hey, belly

Big difference this week! 4 1/2 weeks:                                                                         10 1/2 weeks: 12 1/2 weeks:                                                     15 weeks:     Oh hey, belly!

Making Strides

I feel like besides cramming my brain full of as much information as possible, I haven’t really done anything to actually get ready for the little nugget’s arrival. I’m extremely superstitious, and this entire time I’ve been afraid to buy anything baby-related, or do too much to get ready, in case I jinxed it. And…
