And sometimes, we (🤰🏻) eat dessert for breakfast. 😍😉

Anyone else part of Team Overnight Oats??!! I was so ANTI-overnight oats, until last year when I decided to give them a legit try. I really just needed to figure out what I liked and add it into the mix.
Now, I eat them pretty often when it’s warm out. By adding fat (from the peanut butter and almonds), it helps the carbs and protein digest efficiently, which means that my belly is satisfied until lunch.
Are you a fan of cold oats, or no?

I don’t always make mini meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and three types of vegetables for dinner, but when I do, I make sure it’s 90 degrees outside with 70% humidity.

I claim pregnancy on this one. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤰🏻

Just got back from a little overnight trip to drop our two oldest “Pancakes” off for their annual trip to the country with my family.

I was so excited to find that our #frontyardgarden had delivered us a ginormous yellow squash and 3 cucumbers. 🎉

I’ve never successfully grown a cucumber, so this is exciting news.

This is me, at #33weekspregnant ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Yesterday, though, I came across some photos of myself when I was 4 weeks postpartum after my last baby.

I sent them to my husband, like “hey...remember this chick?” 😂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now-pregnant Me looked at then-postpartum Me in awe. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
First, because I couldn’t remember what my body used to look like before it was growing this current baby. 😂🤷🏻‍♀️ I was like “holy moly...I had a BELLY BUTTON?!” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
At the time when I took the pix, I was sleep-deprived, exhausted, cluster-feeding a newborn, healing from a c-section, and really thought that I would never feel like myself again. I definitely didn’t stop to appreciate the journey from pregnant to postpartum. Because it’s definitely a JOURNEY, y’all. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Bodies are badass. Women’s bodies are badass. I hope that this time around at 4 weeks postpartum, I can see myself for all that I am and all I’ve accomplished. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Also, I miss my belly button. Seriously can’t wait for that to return.

First #frontyardgarden harvest of the season!
Our neighbors probably still think we’re crazy. I’ll be crazy all day in their eyes if it means that we get fresh, organic squash from our suburban front yard! 😂 💯

If you have never tried kimchi with eggs (or egg whites and chicken sausage), you MUST! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
*Especially if you eat it for breakfast...because, why not??!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My breakfast food preferences run the gamut, but I am one of those people who would often rather have something savory and “stick-to-your-ribs” for breakfast. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I actually once got ripped on in elementary school for bringing a tuna sandwich for breakfast. 🤷🏻‍♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I occasionally will have a scone or pastry of some sort, but for me, a savory breakfast (which often consists of last nights dinner leftovers) is where it’s at.

I find that the protein keeps me satisfied for longer, and keeps me from spacing out mid-morning.

Do you prefer sweet or savory foods for breakfast?
