Notes and findings:
- The Halloween candy is almost gone, which helped this week
- On Sunday, Hottie took Matthew to the park while I napped Bryson. I got Bryson down and did a workout in our kitchen. Hottie came in 45 minutes later and said, “you got a workout in?”. Yep! I take it when I can get it, even if just for 35 minutes (I did the last 10 minutes after everyone was up and home)!
- The baked goods from last week, and the Halloween candy, are plaguing me this week so far (Monday)
- I used my treadmill at home for the first time in FOREVER! The saved weight was 174 pounds – 29 pounds ago. Holy shit! That gave me a wave of pride!
- Right when I got on my treadmill, I cranked it up to 6.0, then 6.3, then 6.6, and finally 6.8 mph. I’ve never done that on the home treadmill and I kept thinking, “you’ve come a long way.”
- I did hit 144.6 pounds and 22.5% body fat after my Saturday run, but I’m keeping the pre-run stats
- I wore my skinny jeans for the first time!

Hi, there, I’m Courtney. I never planned to stay home with my kids, but I got sucked into motherhood when my first baby came into our lives after years of infertility and multiple rounds of IVF. His brother followed closely behind, something we didn’t plan on after having such a rough road with achieving parenthood the first time around. My boys are IVF cycle twins, conceived on the same day but born two years and one day apart (they were both transferred on the same day in October, but with two years between them). My boys are the best of friends and my husband is a terrific husband, father, and most importantly… friend. He fully supported my desire to stay home (“I just wanted it to be your idea and not mine, I totally want you to stay home and raise our kids!”) and encourages me in everything I do. I am a lover of projects, spreadsheets, fitness, healthy cooking and eating, crafts, selling my stuff on FB (HA!), and the outdoors. If I’m active, I’m pretty darn happy!
