One thing I will miss about living at the Lyric in Capitol Hill is the rooftop and the view! There is a good possibility we will be living here for a month or so when Logan arrives but we will be moving out this Fall. It will be bittersweet as…
Seafair Weekend Vibes
This was our first year of enjoying the Seattle Seafair activities. Seafair is a month long celebration of community events, parades, the Navy and Coast Guard, airplanes and boat racing. It reminds me of Fleet Week in NYC. Saturday, we spent our day watching the Washington State Open tennis tournament…
Friday Fitness Fashion
I love workout clothes that are of high quality, fit well and are comfortable. Lululemon has been my go-to brand for the past few years. I am starting to branch out and try some brands with more edgy looks. I have been eyeing some pieces from Splits59 for a while.…
Strawberry Lemonade Popsicles
As temperatures hit the 90s in Seattle today, I will be keeping our freezer full of popsicles. Most homes & many businesses in Seattle do not have AC so it will be a rough couple of days here in the Pacific Northwest. I got on the summer popsicle kick this year…
Working Out at Home
My workouts have slowed down in intensity over the past few weeks. I am still doing pilates and playing tennis once a week. My workouts are shifting to be more stretching based and I am completing most of them from home now. It is important to stay active during pregnancy…
Black Bean Brownie Goodness
Happy Monday!! What better way to start off Monday than with a healthified dessert recipe! This is my favorite dessert recipe and I’ve had it in constant rotation during this pregnancy. I haven’t had any crazy pregnancy cravings but I can’t seem to eat enough avocados and chocolate foods. This…
Fashion Friday: Style the Bump
I have spent most of my pregnancy in fitness clothes and haven’t really bought any maternity clothes. I have relied on the bellaband to continue wearing all my normal pants and shorts. As I hit my 31 week mark, the belly has grown and I can no longer wear most of…
Thursday Thoughts
Yesterday was catch up day! I started my morning off with a green smoothie and spent the morning doing a little more research on getting my personal training certification. By the afternoon, I made my decision to go with the certification through NASM. I am hoping to study and be…
Zucchini “Pasta”
This zucchini “pasta” with lemon & avocado dressing is one of my favorite meals. It’s quick and easy to make, refreshing and super healthy. I love the lemon avacado & basil dressing so much I use as dressings on salads. In case you have never used a Spiralizer®, they are…
Weekend Recap: New Beginnings
“There are no endings, only new beginnings” It was a packed weekend for me. On Sunday, I finished an intensive 4 month classical pilates teacher certification course. Minus the fact I have to wait and test out on some of the technique portion since I’m 31 weeks pregnant, the teaching &…
