Baby Penelope is here!

Hi everyone! So excited to share the good news that Penelope Rose was born at 2:04 this morning. She weighed 10 lb 13 oz (no one could believe it!) and is calm, so sweet and snuggly. Everyone is enjoying getting to know the newest member of the family, and we are so thankful she arrived safely after 24 hours of active labor.

I’ll be back soon to share her birth story and updates (+ the usual fitness fare, recipes, and shenanigans), but in the meantime, I wanted to thank you for the kind wishes and love during this pregnancy. Hope you have a wonderful day and I’ll see you soon!

xoxo

Gina, the Pilot, Liv and baby P

(Bell and Caro, too!)

    So happy for you and your beautiful family. Congratulations! Beautiful baby and luv her name! I adore your blog. I have your book and I have had great success with your advice and recipes. I don’t post or do social media stuff as I am late to this tech game (60 ish)… But I would luv to see in the future advice on the post menopause woman and working out. Not much out there…… I am a runner and luv working out. Your age group is so lucky to have leaders as yourself to help daily. Best to you and your family! Thank-you for your informative blog!
