Hello all, and happy Friday! I am sitting outside, feeding my sweet girl, covered in vomit and drool, while she snuggles and stares at the trees. Today hasn’t been easy, as my sweetie has had some belly issues, but these little moments where she holds my fingers and takes in the world around her are the absolute best.
Staying busy as a mamma isn’t hard, but staying fit and healthy can be. I try my best to eat healthy and squeeze in some good workouts, too.
Let’s recap my food and fitness from this past week…
FOOD:
Blueberry and jalepeno brats over spinach! This was delicious!!
Whole wheat spaghetti with veggie “meatballs” and a salad.
Whole Foods salad bar with my mamma after mommy and me gym class with baby K! I love when my mom visits!!
Grilled chicken legs and a salad!
Chinese takeout! Yum! I love the Chinese place by us because they offer steamed meals and brown rice. It is delicious.
FITNESS:
MONDAY: I did a hiit workout video after warming up on the elliptical.
TUESDAY: Pure barre video
WEDNESDAY: A hiit treadmill workout at the gym (Thanks for babysitting mom)
THURSDAY: A baby and mom workout video and 20 minutes on the elliptical
FRIDAY: This morning, I did a 45 minute legs intensive pure barre video
Well, now that it has taken me most of the day to write this during baby naps and down time, I am off to play with my little until her bedtime.
Have a great weekend, everyone!
With love,
Carly

Girl, they are amazing! My mother-in-law gets them in Michigan and keeps them in coolers to bring to us! I have been eating whole wheat pasta for so long and always do 9 minutes, stirring a couple times. It always works well for me! Haha yes!! I stare at her monitor because she is so cute when she sleeps ❤

You really do😂😂! I just get the kroger brand (usually rotini or penne)! High boil with lots of salt for 9 minutes and it always comes out perfect!
