Tonight I recorded my very first guest podcast episode....and I had a blast!  Jennifer Blossom hosts Blossom to be Fit, a podcast for women in all stages of motherhood- or pre-motherhood. She was such a sweetheart! I've grown to look forward to her podcasts every week so talking her …

2 Ingredient Gluten Free Cookies for Toddlers

As creatures of habit, we love finding recipes that we just have to make over and over again. Well I do anyways. I stumbled across this 2 ingredient recipe a few months ago while searching for soft snacks I could make Grayson, and started adding my own spin to these cookies. This recipe is ridiculously …

Ketones are the New Black

I mentioned in last week's blog that I now live in ketosis. But, I know you're probably asking yourself, what the heck is that? Remember how, a few years ago, it seemed like everybody went paleo? Well, keto is the new fad diet that I'm hoping sticks around long term. In fact, I can hardly say …

It was probably about 3 years ago when I first dreamed of the 'Lean Life Clean Life' brand I wanted to create. I bought my domain, created my blog, and started doodling logos.

35 Weeks: Fat and HOT!

35 Weeks now! Life is really good. We just had our second baby shower last weekend...a couple's shower thrown by Shane's family. So much fun! When I say couple's, what I really mean is the men stayed outside and drank beer and played cornhole. I didn't even get to speak to a few of the …

Guys. In less than two days (I'm typing this at 10:00 at night) I will be EIGHT MONTHS PREGNANT. There's something about saying that that just makes me feel....actually I'm not sure how to describe it. Accomplished?

The Pregnant Life

Has it been almost a year since I've blogged? My bad, guys. BUT! To my credit, I have tried to log in a few different times over the past few months, and my computer-illiterate self could not log in. It just kept sending me to Google+. Did that happen to anyone else? No? Just me? …
