How do I get my groove back?

Not that this is earth shattering news, but having 2 kids that are 20 months apart is exhausting. My older son, G, is 2, and my younger son, C, is 5 months. I don't usually mind being tired, as they are sweet, adorable, little beings who provide me with endless hours of joy and laughter. What I do mind, however, is that I have become a bit lost in "mommy land", and need to find a way back to my old self. I work full time, so squeezing out those precious moments of "me" time isn't always easy. I am lucky to have a wonderfully supportive husband, Z, who fully is encouraging me to get my groove back.

I am starting this blog as a way to document my progress and write any random musings I may have along the way...

First up is fitness. I am currently on week 4 of the couch to 5K program and week 1 of a program to rehabilitate my diastasis recti. For extra encouragement I am posting weekly photos of my belly to hopefully document my progress.

Here I am at the start of week 1, weight 108 lbs. (only 2 lbs. above pre-pregnancy weight), waist size 31.25"
