Becoming A Lean, Mean, Mommy-Machine

Happy New Year!  I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and new year!  I know we did.  Little G LOVED Christmas and we loved having our first Chavez Family Christmas.  I look forward to the years to come as G grows to understand more about it and starts looking forward to it.

Bunches of new things in our lives, Gabe now has 2 teeth and is working on more, has started crawling backwards and making great strides in walking (buh-dum-dum) thanks to some new, awesome walker gifts from both sets of grandparents and Dan and I are going Paleo.

I got this awesome cookbook from my dad for Christmas, and after doing some research, I decided I really wanted to pursue a healthier lifestyle.  So today is day one of this new life change.  We have also joined a gym and have resolved to support each other in our endeavors to become the best us that we can.

I will let you know how all of this goes as time goes on.

I am also doing a Biggest Loser type contest with some friends starting tomorrow.  I am serious about getting back in shape and living a healthier lifestyle since soon I plan on being a mom of 2.

Now before you get all excited, no, we are not pregnant.  Yet.  We have started planning on Baby C numero dos.  I really want to be a better prego this time around, so more preparation is going into this go round.

With my first pregnancy, I really didn't work out and where as I ate alright, I want to be better this time.  I do this in the hopes that postpartum won't be as bad and I will have an easier time getting back into shape afterwards.

I realize I talk about losing weight and being healthy a lot on here, and that gets kind of boring to read.  I apologize for that.  So, I will let that go for a while. I will still talk about paleo and how that is working since that is going to be such a huge adjustment in our lives.

Until then, here are some pictures from Christmas and of my mobile little one.
