Lots to tell!





































Hi Everyone! I'm sorry it's been so long, but life has been super busy!! Where to start? Well, Justin's ma and pa came on Saturday, and it's SOOOO nice to see them and see them meet Grace. It was all pretty emotional and I was exhausted after:) They are so enjoying just watching the girl and her little expressions.
















Then, on Sunday, we went to see Sam get baptized. It was so sweet. He was such a good boy the whole time:) Mari and Aaron had a reception after, and it was beautiful. The food was AWESOME and everyone got to mingle and hold the man of the hour. Many people who have never seen Grace got a chance to hold her! Aaron's mom, Gi Gi, was happy to finally meet her because her and her family follows the blog. I really appreciated having so many people interested in my little Grace:)
















Well, I can't make this a long blog because poor JB has gotten a horrible case of food poisioning! Poor guy is lying up in the bed, just surviving. We may have to go to the hospital...get better babe!

Sweetness










Hey ya'all! ;) Just sitting here after a marathon day, waiting for the next feeding. I know my blog title is stroller fit momma, but I am baking brownies right now. ahhhhhh...smells good. Yes, Mari and I have started this fun fitness class that includes the babies, so it's perfect. I kinda thought, how hard can this be? Really? OMG, it's hard. I am sore from last tuesday and I have to suck it up and go back tomorrow! Grace kind of sleeps through the whole thing. She is the littlest baby in the whole group and she looks so sweet and tiny. The other kids really seem to enjoy it so I'm looking forward to it (and possibly wearing a bikini again?!)
























So, today was fun. Sam and Gracie went for a walk. The weather here is perfect these days. Not too hot, not too cold. We all went to Old Navy to have a little shop, and then played at my house. The greatest things these days really are the most simple.
























I better run so I can get ready for stroller fit tomorrow and work on Char's baby shower invites. I am SO excited that so many of my friends have babies or are preggers!! I am sad that I have not seen Maria's sweet baby, Gabe, but I know I'll see him soon...ok, on a tangent, better run! LOVE YOu!

Back from a Great Weekend!


Our little girl slept lots on Saturday as we traveled around Austin...we paid that for that later!!



Jb on Lake Houston. It was SO windy!


I am trying not to flash my belly..would not be a good scene!






So, Justin and I ordered room service three times at Barton Creek. With a baby, it was SO worth it!! We could laze aroundd, eating amazing food and watching movies. We saw Slumdog Millionare and it was AWESOME but really intense! Oh above is my belgian waffle...I feel in love with it!




Justin will kill me for posting this but it really summed up the weekend. Beautifully lazy, playing with our girl and enjoying eachother. Check out all of her new toys! She is more interested in staring at her hands or our faces at this point, but she'll like those soon!
Hi everyone..We are back from Austin and I am a little depressed about it! Austin is so much like Vancouver/Corner Brook and Texas all rolled up into an awesome city! It has rolling hills with trees everywhere and the coolest shops and houses. It is very hippie like, and it's so obvious that people really care about exercising/the environment/ being weird..haha. Houston is so flat and 'perfect' so it was so cool to be in a city that seemed that it had some real history. Don't get me wrong, I do like it here, but I really feel Austin is the best city ever!!
Like I said before,we did alot of lazing. I wish I had more pics to show you of the resort, but I was zoned out the whole time, just soaking up relaxation. I went to the spa and had the BEST facial of my life! (ok, it's the second of my life, but still...) I think I need a spa treatment every week..I would be a much happier person! Justin was able to take a quick bikeride on Sunday morning and then we drove back, sad the weekend was over but glad we did it.
Oh, Grace had her two month birthday there too! Happy Birthday Sweet Girl! XOXO



Hi everyone!! We are back to Austin:)

Trying New Toys


Maybe I like this?




Grace looking cool in her onesie aunt Maria sent...she is ready for Whistler!



Hi! Ok, miss is about to wake up but I wanted to let you know that we tried the pink bumbo and she was less than impressed. I think it's because her little head still bobbles around and can't be that comfy. Cute photo op though! Sam tried out his new car and was totally excited about it! They surprised me with sam driving up on the lawn, looking like a cool dude.













So, we are taking a trip this weekend to Austin!! SO EXCITED! We are staying at Barton Creek and I heard from a little Mari bird that it is where Jessica Simpson was married (Selina, do you hear this?!) It's a nice little woodsy retreat that we all need so much. I do like lots of things about Houston, but it is sorta a concrete jungle! I am looking forward to a facial, eating yummy food and annoying all the rich old people with an infant! Good times!

Was very sweet, I can't wait to hear more from her.

8 week old baby!











Happy Superbowl Sunday! Ok, Justin and I are watching our first superbowl and getting into the spirit by drinking beer and eating pizza:) I do live in Texas now so I have to start understanding this game! I don't understand the excitement around it, but I will just use it as an excuse to pig out! Also, today is Graces 8 week b day! I have posted some pics of the big girl today.








This weekend was pretty relaxed. Char, Mari and I (with all 4 babies!) went out for supper and to babies r us. It seems like a pretty normal trip, but it was full of excitement (and spit up!) We went to this little resturant and as soon as we went in, Grace opened her eyes and was totally awake. I have to complain about places not having places to feed babies!! I actually had to feed her standing up in a disabled bathroom stall...gross. I really think resturants/shopping places should have places to have comfy places to feed and change babies!! Ok, I'll get off it now..just had to vent! haha. But it was really fun to hang out with the girls and help Char start a baby registry! So much stuff to buy, so little time!








On Sat. night, I went to visit Mari and Kelly and their sweet babies! It was so good to see Garrett and Sammy play with eachother. Ms. Grace was just chilling and sleeping. I was a little worried about her because her temp was a little up. I will steal some pics of that night from thier blogs and post them!








So, better go eat some homemade pizza I made. Justin is pretty pumped but the dough was kinda yuck so I think we may end up ordering in! haha








Love ya!
