  • Gave #orangetheoryfitness a try this week. LOVED it. Had a workout this morning at 5:45 am and a great weigh in. Got back on track and lost even more. It’s not easy putting myself first and sometimes it means I have to lose some sleep, but it sure makes me happier! #maryswwjourney #wwsisterhood #ww #weightwatchers #smartpoints #becauseitworks
  • When it’s the night before #weightwatchers and the kids 16 point pizzas are just not a possibility. Figured this the be about 6 #smartpoints. I have another session at #otf - #wwsisterhood #maryswwjourney #becauseitworks
  • Family walk! #fallinottawa #familytime #family #henrysadventures🐶 #thedpgiswalkingus
  • We didn't let the rain stop us this morning. Amazing hike at @gatineaupark to the Wilson Carbide Mill Ruin. #babywearing #tula #babywearingmomma #canada #ncc #familytime #fallinottawa
  • This little munchkin needed cuddles all night. As much as I long for a full nights sleep (which happens almost never), it's so hard to turn this away. Waking up next to her so peaceful and content is worth the stiff muscles.
  • 13.1 miles done!!! Not sure of my final time but it was under 4 hours which was my goal. This was my absolute favourite race so far. The volunteers were amazing. So many water stations with extras. I was the last 1/2 marathon runner and about half of the marathon runners lapped me, each one offering so much encouragement. #ottawafallcolourshalfmarathon2017 #ottawarunners #runottawa #plussizerunner #backofthepackrunner #maryswwjourney
  • Someone didn't get the memo this is a 1 person seat 😂
  • Life as a #wahm has its challenges. Today the kids insisted on "working" like Mommy. So Parker is writing a birthday card for a friend and Caity is apparently drawing whales 😂#motherhood #wahm #canadianholiday
  • Finished my last 5k in the @rundisney #summershortsseries yes a little late I know 🤓 Easy run since I have the Ottawa Fall Colours 1/2 Marathon this weekend. It's also a multitasking kind of day so I am eating breakfast and getting ready for a dentist appointment. #momlife #motherhood #runningmom #plussizerunner #backofthepackrunner #ww #weightwatchers #smartpoints #wwsisterhood
  • Had a meeting with his teachers to discuss his IEP. Saw this and my heart did a little skip <3
  • Turned out to be a special day for Buster Boy! His tooth had been lose for about a week and he decided to pull it during quiet time today. He asked me to write a note asking the Tooth Fairy to leave his tooth so he could show his Grandma, PopPop, Bam and Chief. Just so happened I got the kids each a special box awhile ago to hold each tooth. Any tips for sneaking in and swapping the tooth for a Toonie? #toothfairy
  • It's been a busy week of helping my Sissy and getting as many baby snuggles in as possible. I promised myself I would at least get out once for a run. It was a beautiful morning and a nice change of scenery. #maryswwjourney #runningmom #runningblogger #plussizerunner #backofthepackrunner #garminforerunner235
