Hi friends! Cheers to the weekend. <3 What are you up to? We have an event for Liv’s school, I’m teaching two Zumba classes, and am excited to hang out with the fam. It’s so nice have the Pilot home again… we kind of missed the man of the house. 😉 In standard Friday fashion,…

Hi friends! Happy Thursday! Hope you’re having a great day. <3 The Pilot has been gone this week, and he’s headed back today. We can’t wait to see him! Thankfully, madre has been here to tag-team it with me with the girls. Just as I finally got a handle of doing the nighttime routine by myself,…

What to Do if You’ve Never Worked Out

So today, I thought it would be fun to talk about starting a fitness plan from scratch. It’s one of the common requests I received on the annual blog survey, and it’s something that was very overwhelming to me when I was first getting started in my own fitness journey. Back then, when I walked into the…

Healthy Strawberry Crumble with Coconut Whip

Do I have a spring recipe for youuuuuuu. We have had an awesome week so far, despite the fact that P is spitting up probably more than she’s ever been and Liv is insistent on waking me up in the middle of the night because she lost a toy. MADRE IS HERE! Something about having…

When they’re 13 lbs…

(Sleeping Liv!) When Liv was itty bitty, and we were praying for the sleep unicorn to make an appearance, Tom was talking to one of his friends at work about it. His friend was an exchange pilot from France, and since he had 4 kids of his own, he always seemed to have awesome tips…

Keeping the Momentum Going

Hi friends! How was your weekend? Hope it was wonderful and relaxing. Ours ended up being a bit of a whirlwind, but it ended up with madre here for the week, so all is good. As usual, Livi FREAKED when we picked her up at the airport. Her happy giggles make my heart so warm.…

The End of the 4th Trimester

At a point in time that once seemed SO.FAR.AWAY. Everyone tells me that they miss the newborn times and the early days. I smile and say, “Yes, aren’t they the best?” and then laugh in my mind because I personally think the newborn days are kind of terrible. Sure, it’s amazing to have a sweet…

Health and Fitness: Splurge vs. Save

Hi friends! How’s the morning going? Hope you’re having a great week so far! This week is flying by, and I love it. Liv also has the week off preschool, which is why my blogging schedule has been a bit more sporadic than usual. We’ve had a lot of fun adventures this week, but man.…
