Spring is around the corner

Once again..I have failed you! Another few months go by and here I am...back to update you again.
Gracie Mae arrived December 2nd... the next 10 days God put our new parenting skills to the test when Gracie was admitted to the NICU for a bacterial infection. Never in my life have I been more emotional/stressed/sore/exhausted/sad/frustrated in my life. Jake and I powered through those 10 days and we were finally released to come home. Gracie is doing great. After the craziness of the holidays, the start of the new year..and my return to work... we are FINALLY settling into a routine. Grace is a mere 2 weeks from turning 3 months old! My how time seriously flies. Nevertheless.. I'm loving EVERY minute of being a mom.
Also, we have come full circle the last year and I am back struggling with weight loss...for different reasons of course. I have a mere 10 pounds to lose before reaching my official 'pre-preggo weight'.. from there I am back on track to shed the remaining weight to get to my goal.
I have revamped the blog to focus on positives and motivations for myself. The journey for weight loss is a long road and sometimes it gets lonely! A strong support system is key along with sharing your experiences with everyone. People should celebrate with you for every pound you lose!
This time around I'm doing the 'Ashley Version' of Weight Watchers. Due to an additional human being in our life...and our income... the money just isn't as available as it once was this time last year.

I hope you will follow along in my journey. I promise to keep you updated with each passing week.

Monday is Day 1!
