Piper 1 year!

We have so much going on lately…one of which was Piper’s first birthday last week!   She is such a happy little girl…totally not a baby anymore.  I don’t know where the past year has gone but it has been great!

We went to Ohio last weekend to celebrate with my family.  My sister made this beautiful cake for Piper, topped with her favorite character from Yo Gabba Gabba!  Thanks Lauren 🙂

Shaping Up

I am currently going to an amazing Zumba class!  Girls if you haven’t heard about Zumba you must check it out.  Trust me there are classes everywhere so you will not have trouble finding one.

Even though I am doing better at getting a good workout I have not been losing any weight.  So it is time to tackle the eating, which means counting calories.  So here it goes for a few days last week:

This was really hard for me because I usually do not eat this much each day.  I have had some depression problems since having Piper and my eating has been greatly effected.  So I tried to eat more through out the day.  I think overall I did pretty good, I did lose 3.5 pounds that week!  Sadly I think I gained some of it back because we went away for the weekend.

Check out Sunshine’s Zumba Blog for her nutrition tips.  She is my Zumba instructor and I love her for that!
