French Women Don't Get Fat

I am beginning a new book, I have heard wonderful things about a book called French Women Don't get Fat by Mireille Guiliano. She teachs on the idea of truly finding the pleasure in your food instead of just devouring it out of hunger or even being bored. This is a problem I just recently realized I have. I have twice int he past two weeks food myself snacking at a gathering....after dinner.....even I am not even hungery and BLAH i was super frustrated when I thought back and realized this is a yucky habit. 


I am still living comfortably every day in my pregnancy jeans. I thought this was just because I liked them, but then tuesday I found a whole in the booty...probably from wearing them pretty much every day for ten months....then went to find another pair of pre-prego jeans....and....THEY DON'T FIT...AT ALL. AHHHHHH. Kill me. This was super lame....so when I heard about this book from my friend Cori, I was on board. 


I will share with you my wonderful findings...and reciepes she shares in the book. I have two weddings to be in this summer so I better hurry up and drop the junk and enjoy the good stuff only.

Today is such an amazing day. I put Owen down for a nap at 11:45...it is now 2:15. Lately his naps have been no more than 30 minutes...so needless to say I have been getting nothing done the past few days. It is amazing... while he has been sleeping I have......


-Enjoyed a cup of coffee & a yummy dish of Greek Honey yogurt (BEST THING EVER by the way...my mother in law just gave it to me for the first time today and it is the best yogurt I have ever had)
-Updated my planner.
-Blogged :)
-Made four phone calls
-Read two chapters in my new book
-Enjoyed a wonderful conversation with my husband
-And gazed out the living room window at this amazing day!


I feel so refreshed and very excited for Owen to wake up. We are going to head to Target(my favorite store) for some baby stuff & new curtains. We finally were blessed with black out curtains so need a few more and all the things to hang them. Very wonderful since our bedroom never gets super dark this will help us sleep sooo much better.
Anywho, I must go eat some lunch so I'm ready for the little guy when he gets up.
   

This is my super cute baby Owen...thought I would share how wonderfully cute is sleeping right now :)

Book Club!

   I have recently joined a book club, with 9 other women. All who i can describe as christian, married women whose heart's desire is to better there marriages. These women are beautiful and humble. I feel like even after just one meeting I have already learned so much from them about what it looks like to be a humble, christian wife.
   I feel so blessed to be a part of this group with amazing, Godly women. Here is the beginning few chapters from the book we are reading. I will be blogging about the things I am learning as we go and how I am trying to implement them into my marriage; in the hopes that the Lord will speak through my writing straight into your marriages if these are things you struggle with as well.
