Nicknames Update

Hi all! I am officially 30 weeks along in my pregnancy. Time really does fly by, and the kid isn't even here yet! I have done a couple other posts about the nicknames our baby boy gets every week. Since we have yet to decide on a name, we come up with a nickname based on his current size. It's a lot of fun and friends and family have enjoyed getting in on the fun too! I really thought we would pick out the name ahead of time but now I'm pretty sure we are going to wait until we see the little guy before we decide. It's driving our nieces crazy that we won't tell them what the options are but I have to admit it is kind of fun having it be our secret. Below is the updated nickname list starting from week 22. Let me know which one is your favorite. Have a great week, my friends. Namas(tay)! Week 22 - Papaya - "Peyton" Week 23 - Ear of Corn - "Cornelius J. Cobb" (I think this is our favorite nickname so far) Week 24 - Large Zucchini - "Zuc

Q: Why did the Dad not trust the stairs?

A: Because they are always up to something! Haha! Just wanted to make you smile this Monday morning with the little help from a Dad joke. Happy belated Father's Day to all the fathers out there. Andrew and I were lucky enough to spend the weekend with both of our Fathers. It was a bit of an exhausting weekend but it was spent with family, so it was well worth it. Fathers are so very important. I can't wait to see Andrew in action with our little guy.💙 Have a great week, everyone. Enjoy a couple pictures below! Namas(tay). My first Father's Day gift to Andrew. He is already very good at Dad jokes but I figured he could use a couple more! Just a couple examples.  My handsome hubby/baby daddy. Me and my daddy. He's Papa O to our little guy. My Papa (AKA Big Papa). 96 years old never looked so good!

A Nap Was Needed

I am pleased to report that this past weekend I was able to teach yoga at Elevate Community Yoga in Roseburg Square, Dragonfly-Art for Life/Zoom where I do my lunchtime yoga, and at Sukha Studios in McHenry Village. Teaching 3 classes within 24 hours and being pregnant/not sleeping well definitely led to a 3 hour nap on Saturday. It was amazing! I hope you all had a great weekend. Seize the week and I hope to see you Friday. Namas(tay).

Follow Up From Last Week!

I got to teach at Elevate last Friday! Wahoo! It was so much fun to be back in the studio and using my playlists again. Only 3 people joined for class but I absolutely loved it. We had a great time flowing as well as catching up. I tried to record the class for Facebook Live, but, of course, technology and I are not best friends, so there was technical difficulty. Hopefully I'll get it figured out for this next Friday! Kaycie (the owner of the studio) has gone to great lengths to create a safe environment at Elevate. There are spots marked out on the floor to ensure 6 feet social distancing - which means only 11 students are allowed per class. No props or mats are provided, so definitely bring your own. Also, all the teachers mop after class to make sure everything is clean for the next class. The Elevate website (www.elevatecommunityyoga.com) has the full list of precautions that are being taken to ensure everyone who enters Elevate has peace of mind. I think that about does

Back At It - In More Ways Than One!

Hi all! This is going to be a quick post because it is a busy Monday! Andrew and I spent the last week at the beach for our anniversary. That means it is back to work today. Wish us luck. In more exciting news, TAYOGA IS BACK AT ELEVATE! My usual 9am Vinyasa class resumes this Friday, June 5th at Elevate Community Yoga. Space is limited to 11 due to distancing requirements, so be sure to sign up online instead of just showing up like usual. It's going to be so fun to be back at the studio... though I did enjoy teaching in the park as well. Additional exciting news, the Dragonfly-Art for Life plans to reopen Friday, June 12th. This is where I usually hold my lunchtime yoga class. I am working with Barbara, the owner, to see what we can work out for restarting lunchtime yoga on Fridays 12:15-12:45pm. I'll keep you posted on this and will continue to use Zoom until further notice. So many exciting things. I can't wait to start SEEING people again! Take care. Be safe. S
