Motherhood is CRAZY!!!

OK, so I had my beautiful baby boy, Zakariah on August 30!� I knew being a new mom would be very challenging, but I wasn't prepared for this!!!� The past almost two months have been insane to say the least!� But, I'm actually started to feel a bit more comfortable with it all now!� I'm back to teaching a few dance classes a week at my studio, and I've tried to resume my�daily workouts (whenever Zak will let me!)� Sometimes I get my cardio by jumping around the living room to Pussycat Dolls while making faces at my baby to keep him happy, or�if he falls asleep I can take him down in his stroller to the gym in our condo.� I gained a whopping total of 60 pounds during this pregnancy - too many cupcakes and ice cream for sure!� But, how I'm looking at it now is -�it will just make for a more�dramatic body makeover!� I took a before picture in a bikini last week - eek!�(at which point I was 40 pounds over my normal weight), so over the next few months I hope to make huge progress with my body transformation back into it's fit self (and hopefully even better than before my pregnancy�- as I plan to compete in a fitness competition in the late spring or early summer!)� I'll keep you all posted on my journey!
