We are so happy that Mason is finally here!  Weighing in at a whopping 10lbs, 1oz and 22″ long.  He was was quite the big guy!  My labor went really well.  I was getting concerned because I knew that he was going to be big, and I didn’t want to have a c-section.  Even though [...]

Holy Moly he’s here!  9lbs 3oz and 22″ long.  Can you  BELIEVE I squeezed that out of my…well…, nevermind.  The “Poll Happy” results were a little off, but that’s okay.  We’re just SO happy he’s here.  He’s our little nine pound bundle of love and we wouldn’t trade him for anything in the world.  He’s [...]

Oh Baby

As I pack on the pounds in the last weeks of pregnancy (Ugh!) I can’t help but wonder how I’m going to loose all this weight postpartum. Last year when I was preparing for pregnancy I attend a few of the 4 week long boot camps that focused on circuit training and running to get [...]
