An update… like I promised!

Well folks, Baby J is now 6 months old! In fact, today he is 6 months and 1 week! I know this is always being said but I have no idea where the time has gone! He is so big, so much fun and Marc and I love him more and more each and every day!






As for Marc and I we bought our first home together! FINALLY! He owns one but we rent it due to the past 5 years of him moving so much for work, so we have been leasing the past 3 years trying to find the perfect area, the perfect home for the perfect price. They accepted our offer last week and Marc has been on cloud 9 ever since. However we cannot move in until the end of June which is fine because that gives us more time to start packing and getting organized.
Ok… I am extremely excited as well. šŸ™‚

Spring is here with summer coming right around the corner. I have been very good about getting my tush to the gym and have been losing my pregnancy weight at a steady rate. Today was the first time I have been able to fully button my favorite pair of jeans! The past week I still had a little bulge over the top so I was still using the hairband trick… not any more :).

Today was also Baby J’s 6 month shots. He amazes us! Not a single tear, just a little fussing and that was it. This kid is so strong and tough… he also popped his first tooth today! We were at lunch and Baby J grabbed Marc’s finger, pulled it in his mouth and bit down. Marc pulled it out right away and gave me the strangest look.
“I felt a tooth!”
We looked and sure enough! The top of the bottom tooth had popped through! It surprised us both because he has given us no signs of full on teething. Of course he sticks everything in his mouth and has been drooling for months but there has been no sudden, uncharacteristic changes that would have hinted he was ready to start sprouting teeth. It made me sad though. My little baby is growing sooo fast!
I tried to take a picture of it but this is all Baby J let me get… šŸ™‚

Hello, and welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.

I started The Clean Eating Mama back in 2008 as a place to share my love of wholesome food and healthy living. Over the years, this little corner of the internet has grown and changed right along with me.

Here you’ll find simple, nourishing recipes, thoughts on clean eating and wellness, and little pieces of my everyday life. In many ways, this blog has become a personal diary of sorts. This is a place where I can share what I’m cooking, what I’m learning, what I’m loving, and where life happens to be taking me.

Healthy living doesn’t have to be perfect or complicated. For me, it’s about making choices that help us feel our best, enjoying good food, and continuing to learn and grow along the way.

So grab a cup of coffee or tea, stay awhile, and welcome to The Clean Eating Mama. Read full bio.
