Becoming a family of FIVE

I remember finding out I was pregnant with our THIRD baby. I CRIED! 😭😱🙈
I looked at our two kids in the tub right that moment and wondered HOW we would ever manage with THREE! I CRIED! 😳😂

I worried how they would react and if we would have enough LOVE for them all! I mean, we had JUST started figuring out life as a family of four. I CRIED! 🤷‍♀️

I was also really getting in a groove with my health and fitness, being in the MIDDLE of my 3 week cleanse, then BAM, time to GAIN weight again. I CRIED. 😝🤣
BUT- I decided to soak up every moment with my kids and ENJOY life as a family of four before our world changed again. We took some trips and spent TIME together- making precious memories we'll hold FOREVER. I SMILED. 😍

I continued to workout and drink my superfoods shake to stay in shape for a healthy pregnancy and easier labor and delivery. Plus, it helped relieve stress. I SMILED! 😍

Then our precious Kathryn came into our lives in just one push. I SMILED. 😍

I didn't have to stress about rushing back to work or how to make ends meet while I was on maternity leave. I SMILED! 😍

I still workout and maintain a healthy lifestyle- even getting to do a LIVE Mommy and Me workout that was FILMED to help other moms find their healthy and fit lifestyle! I SMILED! 😍


Now, our lives are CRAZY, as expected, but I get to be PRESENT and figure out what works for US! And we have the PERFECT baby who COMPLETES our family and can barely remember a time when she wasn't here! Seems a LONG way from when we first learned we would be outnumbered. So... I SMILE! 😍😍😍

  1. handling 2 kids and a husband while keeping your own life on track in case of fitness must not have been easy! cant imagine what it was like to have another child! but she did good!
