Family gatherings

Well I went to my aunts family gathering with the boys yesterday and it actually went really well. She asked for people to arrive at 4:30 so I made sure the boys napped well and then of course Mi...


As of yesterday morning I weigh 175.2 pounds which means I am down 2lbs this week and I'm super psyched because it's the weight I was when my doctor weighed me for the first time when I was about...

Update on the kids

It has really thrown me for a loop and take some getting used to but Miles has a completely different temperament than Cody did at this age. And by that I mean holy crap can he ever be cranky! Wh...

Weight loss challenge

Time alone is definitely a rare and precious commodity when you have 2 kids. I try to put Cody down for his afternoon nap at a time when the baby is also sleeping just so I get a bit of time alon...

Week 2 weigh in

So I weighed in on Monday at 198.8 which is a 1.2 pound loss from the week before. Not bad. I'll take any loss at this point. It's the gains that are discouraging and make it hard not to cheat an...

Week 1 weigh-in

Book Description

My name is Sarah. I’ve been married since Sept 2010. I have 2 boys and a girl :) Cody was born July 23, 2011, Miles on August 8, 2013 and Summer on April 13, 2016. I am off on maternity leave until my 3rd is a year old. It’s a busy life but having children has always been my dream. Pretty sure we’re done at 3 kids cuz it is a LOT of work and money to have this many kids but I would love to just keep having kids Duggar style because I love babies and children so much! And as much as they can drive me craaaaaazy there’s nothing I love more than staying home with them. I wish I didn’t have to ever go back to work but my husband doesn’t make enough for me to do that unfortunately. Otherwise I’d gladly be that wife who cleans her house and has snacks and a yummy dinner for my family when they get home at the end of the day.

There are many things I love including all things Harry Potter, theme parks, Florida, knitting, reading a variety of types of books like young adult fiction, biographies of interesting people, regular fiction and some self help books. I also enjoy baking, watching movies and most of all chocolate!!

I’m often losing weight because I’m one of those people who go up and down on the scale a bit despite my best efforts. I’m updating this as of Aug 16/16 and right now I’m trying to lose my baby weight from my current baby who is 4 months old.
