Here's the picture it wouldn't let me upload last week. Apparently, I just needed to refresh my screen! Why couldn't I come up with that last week? I don't know, but, here it is now. Edison is now 3 weeks old. Yesterday I did some stretches and used my bolster for the first time since he was born. It felt amazing. I'm excited to ease back in to yoga. I've read a lot about this time being the fourth trimester (which is a contradiction, I know). Our culture praises women for getting back to their usual shape, exercises, routine, etc. after giving birth, but I've learned that it is a slow healing process (even if you are feeling good). So that's what I'm doing: I'm taking it easy. Slow walks and stretches are where I'm at, as well as lots of snuggles with my boys (I haven't forgotten about Andrew!). Have a great week and maybe take a little extra time this week to take care of yourself. Everyone needs it. Namas(tay).

Well... I'm pulling the Mom card out as my excuse for my lack of posts this past 2 weeks. The good news is: I'm working on a long post for you. The bad news is: it takes a while to complete when you have a newborn. I figured you understand! In case you are wondering, Edison is still wonderful. We had a rough day yesterday; but that's part of the job. Today has been much better. My Mom came out to help, so I got a nap (wahoo)! Andrew is also back to work, so things are constantly changing around here. It's a good thing we like to try new things! On the yoga front, Elevate is opening back up October 19th! Yay! Not sure when I'll be back to teaching on Fridays, but I will keep you all posted. Hope you are having a great week and happy almost Friday! Namas(tay). P.S. I tried to upload an image of Edison, but, of course, technology does not like me so you will have to wait for another picture. Sorry!

Hi all! If you read my post last week, you'll remember that I asked if you thought I would make it to teach my last Friday yoga class before Baby Tayoga arrives. The answer: NOPE! I had to call in reinforcements (AKA Kaycie Hall) to teach my Friday morning class because active labor was in full swing by Friday afternoon. Luckily, active labor was "only" 11 hours long and Edison Andrew Huff was born at 12:56am on Saturday, September 5, 2020. He is a big boy weighing in at 8 pounds, 12 ounces, and 21 inches long. I am pleased to report that I was able to have him naturally; because of that, recovery is going smoothly. My hubby, Andrew, and my Doula, Vanessa, were my rocks throughout the whole thing. I could not have done it without them.  Mama, Daddy, and Baby are all doing well. We are all so happy. Edison truly is perfection.  I still plan to keep up on this blog and my Patreon page. I'll likely be sharing Baby Tayoga updates because he is such a big part of our lives
