Staying or maintaining my health is very important to me! I don’t work out everyday but I try to make it a point to at least twice or three times a week. I am going to share a few quick workouts I do and a few things that motivate me to work out!

Keeping my girls healthy is my number one priority! I have been so blessed with good eaters. There are days where they don’t always want to eat the best. Sometimes giving them smoothies is so good and I love when I can sneak in all the healthy things and they don’t know. I always add protein to their smoothies to keep their tummies full for the day ahead! 

One of my favorite past times is drinking coffee but I have to limit due to nursing. I am working on losing my baby weight! I am taking it slow and in no hurry. I was asked to partner with Skinny Coffee Club at first I was skeptical. 

Hello lovely friends!

The holidays also get me thinking about goals for the next year! One of my goals is one of those popular goals. WORKOUT! I am not starting just to lose baby weight, I have decided just to start for my health now and for my future! I haven’t worked out since getting pregnant with Sutton. I will be essentially starting over and I am open to some fun workouts that y’all do! My hubby is even interested in starting with me! I don’t do crazy workouts and I don’t go to the gym! I like work outs I can do at home and don’t make me want to die! I enjoy yoga and light weight training!

Happy Friday Lovelies!

This week I thought would go slow being that it came after a Holiday weekend but alas another week gone! Once Thanksgiving is over time goes even faster for me because of all the holiday fun I want to jam into one month! I don’t want to get all holiday crazy so my goal this season is to remember the true meaning of the Season. Now being a mom of two I have been finding it hard to do all the things I use to do. Once you have two kids you realize how much more time you had when there was just one 😉 I am now trying to find simpler ways to do things to allow me more time with my girls! Motherhood is a balancing act and most days I feel I am conquering it and then dinner hour comes and I feel defeated again. What am I going to make? Do I have all my ingredients?

Enter Hello Fresh!

Many of you know I am a believer in all things non toxic and stay away from heavily chemical products.  I found a mama’s etsy shop dedicated to making all organic yummy skincare! She is a mama on a mission to help bring natural non toxic products to help your family live a healthier life.

Cleaning & sanitizing is my jam! If you ever watched Full House I am a little like Danny Tanner- a clean FREAK!!! 😉

Well.. we have hit 23 weeks already! Our little girl is the size of a papaya! How cute is that? I have some exciting news to share we decided to forego the hospital and do a home birth with a midwife this time around! I actually have no dislike of the hospital. My first birth went smoothly, we had wonderful nurses and no complications. I just have researched a little of the protocol for infants in the hospital and reading about certain things that are not necessary that I don’t have a choice in skipping has pushed me the home birth route!  This is completely new territory for me so I will be honest I am nervous. I try to act all nonchalant about it but the nerves are real! I have not had my first appointment with our midwife yet so I am not sure what to expect! How many of my mamas out there had or have a midwife or know someone who has?

Smoothies are talked a lot about in the health blogs because of their amazing health benefits to the mind and body! As long as there are more veggies than fruit in my opinion;)
