Baby Steps

I completely agree! Being a mother, wife, etc., is a wonderful occupation, but the hard part is how much we can forget about ourselves in the process. Then again the reward is rich when you see how your selflessness has blessed the lives of your family. Why can't I be skinny with a ton of energy as well?! All excuses aside, our time will come when our children are grown and we'll have all the time in the world to pamper ourselves, right? Please tell me that time will come--

ZUMBA, baby!!!! Last night I went to my first Zumba class in 9 months! It was thrilling, other than I felt like an awkward dancing dairy cow. I got my groove on next to two women who had babies about the same time as I so I felt very comfortable letting loose and just having fun (I figured they understood). After all, working out should definitely be fun. I can't wait for next tuesday!

I found an amazing blog recently with hundreds of delicious, healthy recipes (and I really do mean delicious!) I decided to incorporate 3 recipes from this website into this week's menu. Tonight we had turkey and black bean enchiladas. Mmmmmm... they were perfect and quite filling! In fact, my hubby even adored them (and that's really saying something!) If you're looking for some new healthy recipes, check it out!

I feel like Bob Wiley from "What About Bob." I just have to keep taking baby steps in everything I do. That's when real progress is made. "... baby steps get on the bus, baby steps down the aisle, baby steps... "
