***Delta Children has gifted me a glider chair in exchange for this post. As always, all opinions are my own. [show_shopthepost_widget id=”3096681″] Sooooo…nesting is totally a thing. Once I got over my “pity party of one”, I decided I needed to get crackin’ on our home and make more room for our baby boy! In all seriousness, I needed to engage …
Happy Tuesday! The heat came in fast and furious here and Miami that I forget that most of the country is still wrapped up in parkas and cleaning up what hopefully is the last of the snow! I have been spending a lot of time clearing out and purging stuff to make room for baby boy and I have to …
When we were younger it seemed that it would take FOREVER for my birthday to come around. Nowadays, in the blink of an eye, another year whizzes by in what feels like an instant. The days turn into weeks and weeks into months and so on, and it seems like you have yet to come up for air. I have …
Women are superheroes! All women, PERIOD. As plenty of my friends are making the transition to motherhood I am always asking for advice and honesty about the struggle. Every type of mom deals with some kind of hardship. The full-time stay at home mom never gets a break. The work is just as hard and the cycle can seem never-ending. …
Today is “National Write Your Story Day’, and although I get the chance to write my stories every week, I feel compelled and inspired to write to someone today, and that someone is me. I also want to write this letter in hopes to inspire all of the other women out there who encounter their aging and changing bodies every …
Last year, I sat in the back of a very crowded ballroom at BlogHer 2017 in Orlando and screamed VAGINA over and over again with a thousand women from all different backgrounds. It was uncomfortable, empowering and absolutely necessary. Think about it. Why is it that men CAN and DO talk about their private parts like it is no big …
Ah married life! You dream about your wedding day since you were a little girl. You picture standing at the Alter with your groom, feeling like a princess as thoughts of living “happily ever after” swirl around your head. I get it. I had the same thoughts and dreams that one day my prince charming would sweep me off my …
We have all heard that the flu virus peaks in February, but guess what? There is talk that the flu will pick up again late winter into spring. So you must keep your guard up! I am still taking daily elderberry syrup and kicking back homemade ginger shots to keep my immune system going strong for me and baby. You …
If you think homemade bread has to be a 2 to 3 day process then think again. This recipe takes about an hour and since most of the time is spent waiting for the dough to rise, you can work on it almost any night of the week. Although I wish I could take credit for this recipe I need …
I was 17 weeks yesterday and time is really flying! I woke up in the second trimester and literally felt like a new woman! My energy is back. I no longer need a bagel every morning and my workouts are getting more conscious and intense. Looking back at my first trimester, I have to laugh at certain things I did …
Happy Valentines Day my loves! I hope you are told today and every day how much you are loved and appreciated. I saved today’s post about heart health for the one day of the year that is all about…HEARTS! After my father-in-law underwent a triple bypass surgery in January, I decided I want to learn more about the risk factors …
THE MEETUP-A MINDFUL LIVING EXPERIENCE “Get together, sweat together, create together.” Amanda Mestre of ICON SPORTIVE and I brought our first fitness event to life the past December! Our sole purpose for creating this series stems from the desire to create a platform for women to connect with each other. We have realized how empowering it is to have …
We have had a few cold fronts come through Miami and when they do I feel all of the cozy vibes coming on.As you know from this post I absolutely love using Butternut Squash. It is a great addition to you plate because it is high in fiber, phytonutrients and is readily available during the fall-winter months. I have not …
“A baby fills a place in your heart you never knew was empty.” -Unknown Yes, you read it right. Baby BOY Sinning is on the way! For those of you who do not know, Walker is my maiden name and Sinning is my married name. Cory and I went to China for two weeks in November and came back with …
Happy New Year! We are a little over two weeks in and I am hoping your resolutions are still sticking. If you need an additional push, it is never too late! I have teamed up with my friends at Baptist Health South Florida to help you stay on track through these next few months when the cold weather seems to …
This flu epidemic is VERY scary this year! If I am being honest I am not the first one to run and get a flu shot. I find that often times when I do, I tend to get upper respiratory infections and catch some sort of flu-like sickness anyway. If you do decide to get the flu shot, speak with …
