I had Grey just over three months ago and losing the incredible amount of baby weight I put on has been difficult to say the least (especially when I love to bake so much). Today I finally officially fit into pre-pregnancy jeans! I have been wearing them around for a while, stuffing myself into them and wearing baggy shirts to cover the muffin top. No More! This is very exciting indeed! (I still have about 17 pounds to lose to get back to my prepregnancy weight, however).
Where to begin? I have started blogs (including this one) and never stuck with it, but I am going to try again. I think it will be a great way to keep in touch with my friends and family and to organize my own thoughts.
In the last year I moved, got married, had a baby and quit my job. I have started cooking more and knitting; of course the biggest thing is that I have started being a mother. It has been amazing and challenging, as each day goes by I love it more and more.
Here are some of the things I hope to accomplish with this blog: talk about the challenges of parenthood, share my knitting projects, weight loss, talk about food, farming and supporting local economies. This isn’t a comprehensive list, but a start.
One of the things I love in reading other blogs is learning about the person I am reading about; what makes them tick, what is/was their life like, etc. Every Friday I will write a post called, “Flashback Fridays”. I am going to write about my past and that can be anytime from the day I was born until the day before I wrote this post!
