Refocusing… time for some discipline

So this time last year I was a much different person… I had just finished yoga teacher training with Core Power Yoga and I was a VERY disciplined woman. I was someone who thought about everything I put into my body (the bag of fudge I’m holding in this picture was a much rarer occurance than it is now) and was practicing yoga at least 3 times a week, on top of about 3-4 long walks/runs (2-4 miles) a week. THEN came pregnancy and everything went out the window when the morning sickness kicked in. It’s amazing how far away from that person I am now and, though I am no longer my first priority, I think there must be a way to balance my new motherly duties with a well balanced/healthy lifestyle (especially now that I will no longer be working full-time)! Tomorrow I am going to start blogging about my fitness progress… wish me luck! 🙂

Hello and welcome. After over a year of not writing, with the exception of a handful of Instagram posts, I’m slowly returning to my blog. I am realizing that so many of our family’s memories are here along with so many of the struggles and stages I’ve worked through. It’s sometimes hard for me to recognize the person I used to be, because when I read my words, I see how hard I was trying to be someone else. There are things I’ve shared and things I haven’t, both of which are tucked away here. When I write here, I usually spend most of a day writing thoughts and ideas I’ve been attempting to sort through, but haven’t been able to in the hectic world of “Mother to young children”. Writing here helps make up for the limited adult conversation in my days. My little shout into the void. My husband, fur babies, three fiesty kids, and I hereby extend an invitation to visit this little sneak peak into our life. We’re super flawed and broken and there aren’t too many dull moments around here. There’s usually too much coffee flowing and we welcome all the prayers. Come on over if you want to process with me. And feel free to comment if you desire to better understand my perspective or have something constructive to say. I reserve the right to remove what doesn’t fall into those two categories because this is my blog and I desire for it to be a safe space to be vulnerable.
