A 4 month difference. The physical changes are of

A 4 month difference. The physical changes are of course so rewarding, but it’s so much more than that. I’ve started my “health and fitness” journey so many times. I have countless “before” pictures but never stuck with it long enough to ever take an “after”. What’s changed is my why. I started exercising consistently earlier this year but my “why” was because I was having lower back pain. I’m 29 years old. I was 1 year postpartum after having my 3rd baby in 4 years. My why changed. I wasn’t doing this to “look good” anymore. I was doing this to get strong. For myself and for my daughters. That sounds easier said than done and I get that. I’ve been there. I wake up before 6am everyday to get my workout in before the girls get up. I found what type of exercise brings me joy. I started with @kelseywells program and a couple pairs of dumbbells. I had never lifted before but found out I truly love it. I found a friend who’s goals aligned with mine. @everydayfitwithbrit kept me consistent. Twice a week for the past 4 months all I’ve had to do is show up and she has the equipment and workout ready to go. Not only that, but she is really the first person I’ve ever heard about plant based eating from. She didn’t push me to try it or ever question my previous nutrition choices but I gained a lot of knowledge from hearing her talk about her own habits. That’s why it’s so important to surround yourself with people who have the same goals as you. I thought time and time again that I should learn to count macros and that was the only was I was going to take my journey to the next level. But the thing that held me back from that was my daughters. It’s important to me that my girls learn healthy habits and I know that counting macros works great for a lot of people, but for me, I didn’t want my little girls to see that in order to be healthy I had to track everything I ate and weigh my food before putting it on my plate. I had followed @earthyandy for a while and decided.. (continued in caption)

In her element ✨ // this girl truly believes she

In her element ✨ // this girl truly believes she’s slowly turning into a mermaid. She eats a piece of seaweed daily because we looked up what mermaids eat and seaweed popped up so insisted I buy some. Now after she saw this picture thinks she has mermaid superpowers of shooting water from her fingertips 😂 the imagination of my little 4 year old 🧜🏼‍♀️

I blinked and my baby turned into a big girl ♥︎

First day of gymnastics in AZ for Marina! She was

First day of gymnastics in AZ for Marina! She was SO incredibly nervous. I asked her to take a picture before we left the house and the last one is her true emotion. You can still see the little tears in her eyes in the first picture. She ended up having a blast and @jj_becher took her to pick out some mermaid earrings after that she so sweetly shared with her sister 🥹 and had to throw a couple of baby Sol from today in for good measure ♥︎
