Hiiiii 😀 Happy Saturday! Hope you’re having a wonderful day <3 Sorry for the lack of morning post today- I have a “if you don’t have something to blog about, don’t blog” policy, and decided to wait until after work. Today was extra fun because it was Zumba day 😀 I tried to take an…

Hey friends! How’s your weekend treating ya so far? After some shocking baby news this morning –little nugget is actually a she-nugget!- I’ve been a little scatterbrained and distracted. I did hit up the mall to exchange baby clothes and be offended by the saleslady at Motherhood (it was my first time in that ‘hood,…

I’ve been crying on and off all day today. People must think I’m crazy.. walking around with my belly sticking out and bloodshot eyes, goofy grin on my face. I’m excited, thrilled beyond belief, and shocked. We had our halfway ultrasound today- the last one before we get to meet the little nugget in person.…

Hey guys! Hope your morning is going well <3 I’m really excited for this week’s Focus On post because it’s a class that I used to teach and is one of my workout loves. The only reason I stopped taking classes was because LA Fitness forced their instructors to only use LA Fitness music and…

Hi friends <3 How’s it going? Hope you’re having a great night <3 I loved reading about your morning rituals! For those of you who asked, here’s what today’s to-do list looked like: [I just bought a new notebook and left it in the car, so today was on a scrap piece of paper] It’s…

Yesterday, I had my first major moment of doubt. This whole time, I’ve been so in awe and thankful that this is happening, pumping myself up for the birth –I keep telling myself that it’s the first chance I’ll get to show myself how strong I am- and relishing every little bubble and popcorn pop…

Hey hey hey 😀 Happy Humpday aka Indian Food Wednesday 🙂 Hope you’re having a lovely morning. After I got home from the gym last night, dinner was a meal of easy components instead of a full-up shebang. I made a massaged kale salad: {And it always tastes better if you sing to it while…

One question I’m frequently asked is why I choose goat dairy over cow dairy, so I thought I’d address that today. I was kind of hesitant to write this post because as I’ve said many times before, I don’t want to influence anyone’s eats. Every body is different and just because a silly blogger is doing something…

Since I’ve had this little growing baby in my belly, I’ve only practiced yoga a handful of times. I used to practice every.single.day. Why did yoga fall to the wayside? I had NO idea how to modify poses, what to do if the class was doing something I couldn’t (like poses on the back or…
