hi from ohio

hi gals!


my name is heather and i live in columbus, ohio. i met stephanie when we were both living in iowa. i also have 3 girls and a boy. My girls are 10, 8, and 3. my son is 4 months old. my husband is  a finance manager with dupont and i stay at home and homeschool our kids. my degree is in history and i used to teach part time at the university of phoenix. i am thinking of starting that up again just because you know i am not busy enough!

i gained a ton of weight with my last pregnancy because i just ate anything and i ate a lot! now i am suffering the consequences because i have a lot to lose. but really the biggest problem for me is overcoming the horrible eating habits i gained when i was pregnant.

we eat mostly vegetarian and vegan type foods and i have a food blog that i haven't updated in forever. but maybe updating it will be one of my personal goals. here it is if you want to check out some of my recipes www.realmomhealthnut.blogspot.com

i love to cook, read and take pictures. i don't love to run but i make myself do it and i am currently training with the couch to 5k program. i am looking forward to this challenge kicking me in gear!

sorry everything is in lower case. i am nursing my son and typing one-handed. you know how it is!

  3. You'll have to keep us updated on the couch to 5K! I've been wanting to try something out like that!

    I can't wait to see some of those recipes!!! I have a bunch of quinoa and have no idea what to do with it!

    Good luck on the competition!

  4. How adorable! I am sure you have a bunch of mommies running around like I do. Now if I could just get strangers to stop saying "you got your boy" I would be happy. My little guy was born Dec. 15th, how about yours?

  5. Artesia - yes we get that a lot too. As if we kept having children to get a boy. We didn't. But he sure is sweet. He was born December 29.
