You’re going to hate me, then nod in agreement…

May 2, 2011

I’ve always been small. Thin. Skinny. Slender. It is what it is.  The most I ever weighed is when I waddled into the hospital at 39 weeks pregnant.  I was 149lbs.  I know, you hate me.   I’ve never quite understood the confidence shattering shopping trips. {Until today}  Sure I had times where clothing didn’t fit [...]

Farting is funny.

March 4, 2011

Ryann was up crying at 6am.  This is sort of unusual now a days…so I changed her and brought her back to bed with us.  Snuggled under the covers between JPW and I, she tucked herself into my arms and stroked her beloved blanket.  Her wispy blond hair tickled my nose as I took in [...]

Striding towards friendships.

January 24, 2011

Last year I won a gift certificate for two months unlimited attendance to Stroller Strides.  I had been putting off using that gift certificate for logistical reasons.  There were no classes near my house on the days I was home.  The times of the classes near my work were during babies nap times and then [...]

Don’t break the seal yet.

April 13, 2010

It’s finally beach weather here, and by beach weather I mean it’s warm enough to sit on the beach with just a bathing suit on, the water hasn’t received the annual memo regarding acceptable swimming temperature for us Floridians. We packed up our THREE bags, grabbed the umbrella, chair, beach mats, jogger stroller, cooler and [...]

Splish splash I was sporting a bikini.

April 12, 2010

On this Not So Fit and Fabulous Monday I’ll be showing you pictures of myself in a two piece. Not for compliments or bragging rights or fits of jealousy being thrown but because it’s all about feeling comfortable in your own skin.  AND being a good role model for your children, especially daughters.  So here [...]

Peaches and pears and peas, OH MY!

March 30, 2010

I was counting down the days to Ryann’s six monthday.  Purees, aka solid food would be introduced into Ryann’s diet.  My plan: shop organic, make and freeze baby food. Only I didn’t know how much or how little to buy and I certainly didn’t intend on spending $78 on produce at the grocery store! Yeah, [...]

A new season, a new size and a new outlook.

March 29, 2010

Well I’m back. The snot has left our house and although we’re still wiping the occasional runny nose we are all feeling much better.  In fact we hit up a local state park for some trail hiking this weekend.  IT.WAS.GORGEOUS.OUTSIDE.  Perfect FL weather, sunny, 77 and breezy.  No humidity, no rain and no bugs!  Perfect [...]

I lost more than baby weight and modesty.

February 15, 2010

I also lost: the ability to run for more than 25 minutes my lung capacity freedom to leave the house long enough to run my once bootylicious ass bladder control muscle and joint lubrication motivation to get up and go my memory, so I can remember what computer I last updated my nano on and [...]

I haven’t been on time since September 12, 2009

February 12, 2010

I used to be a very punctual person…until I had Ryann.  I was always on time or early, usually early.  I hated being late and actually think it’s a bit rude, so there I sat early for appointments and the first one to a party.  Ryann must have known mommy liked to be on time [...]
