As the days get longer and hotter, memories from that last month of pregnancy last year have come flooding back. All the days filled with excitement and anticipation as we awaited the birth of our sweet baby girl. The days spent snuggling James and watching Disney movies. The days where my body got more and […]
I am in utter denial that in two short months Junie turns a year old. Where did my teeny little baby go? And why oh why do the days need to fly by this fast? On one hand I feel like there’s no way she is almost 1, but on the other I feel like […]
Yesterday Junie girl turned ten months old, so I guess it’s time to get to writing her nine month update! My goodness sister has been a crazy energizer bunny lately. She is always on the go, crawling around everywhere, getting in to things, playing with big brother’s toys, and smiling pretty much t he entire […]
And just like that we have an eight (and a half) month old. Next month feels SO crazy because it means she has been out of my belly longer than she was in it. It still amazes me how much faster time goes when you’re not sitting around waiting and waiting on a baby to […]
I looked at the date today and was a little shocked to realize that tomorrow June turns 8 months old. Holy moly! And of course I am just now getting to the seven month update… Whoops. This month has been so busy with lots of work, adventures and soaking in time with my two littles. […]
When I need a quick, healthy, last minute recipe my go to lately has been this delicious Whole30 Chicken Stir Fry. It’s taken me years to create a good recipe that not only had lots of flavor and a yummy sauce, but is also healthy and wholesome. And I have to say… This recipe was […]
Growing up, I loved it when my mom made one of her go-to recipes: beef tips over noodles. It was creamy, flavorful and quickly became one of my favorite comfort foods. But when I started trying to be more conscientious about the foods I eat, I realized this recipe wasn’t the healthiest. Between the condensed […]
ICYMI I just completed my January Whole30 and I’m still riding high. Something special about this round of Whole30 was that I shared literally everything I ate on my Instagram stories. Not only did it keep me super accountable to sticking to it, but I was able to show y’all what I ate day to […]
Oh my gosh. I woke up yesterday morning, looked at the date, and smiled the biggest smile. January 30th. 30 days into the new year. And the last day of my Whole30. Y’all… I just accomplished thirty days of eating only meat, veggies, fruit and fats. Yes, that meant no added sugar, corn, soy, legumes, […]
The last time I had “Livin’ on a Prayer” stuck in my head was when I hit my 20 weeks pregnant mark. And just like I felt then, I feel on top of the world. I’m halfway through Whole30. I got past the hardest part, and the end is in sight. #PRAISE To be honest, […]
Last week I finally renewed my Costco membership (yay!) and stocked up on lots of yummy foods to help me through the next few weeks of Whole30. I asked on my Instagram Stories if y’all would like to see what I bought, and so many of you said “YES” that I decided to do it. […]
Today marks day 4 of the January Whole30 and so far things have been great! While I’ve had some cravings (I’m lookin’ at you cheese and chocolate) things haven’t been too bad. We’ll see how the next few weeks go, but for now I’m enjoying the healthier foods and testing my willpower. I’ll do an […]
Confession time: I restarted the Whole30 this week. My heart just wasn’t in it last week, I ate things I shouldn’t have, and I knew that I needed a fresh start. This week is so far MUCH better, I’m prepared, have lots of “emergency snacks” on hand, and determination to stick to my plan. It’s […]
Well friends… I didn’t think I’d be doing it this soon, but I am! I’ve started my second round of Whole 30, and I am SO EXCITED. To say I fell back into my “old ways of eating” would be an understatement, and I am ready to revamp my diet and feel better. Along with […]
