Ryan and I are expecting a little one this August. I am 17 weeks pregnant right now (our due date is August 10) and we could not be more thrilled!!!

I'd love to connect with you! I am always so grateful when you let me know you tried one of my recipes or workouts and tag me in your photos or updates. Thank you so much!!!

About Julie

My name is Julie and I am a full-time blogger, new mama, fitness enthusiast (certified personal trainer and group exercise instructor) and food fanatic (mostly healthy... but also not-so-healthy) living in North Carolina with my husband, dog and baby boy. Thank you for visiting Peanut Butter Fingers! I hope you enjoy little glimpses into my life and have fun trying the sweaty workouts I frequently share and making some of my favorite recipes along the way!

    Congratulations! You’re lucky, NC has an incredible health care system thanks to the medical schools at Duke & UNC. You are going to be well taken care of throughout the pregnancy. Hope you’re ready for a wild ride!

    JULIE! This is so wonderful! I’ve been reading your blog every day for three years, so I feel like I practically know you by this point, and I’m as excited for you as I would be for one of my real-life friends. Sending my best wishes to you and Ryan and Sadie (dogs + babies = ALL the cuteness, and I can’t wait to see that unfold!).

    Wow!!! Congrats!! Confetti!!! *streamers/paper dots* I could feel this coming down the path for you. The house, all your lovely friends starting to welcome little ones….it just felt like you were on the cusp. Congrats again to you and Ryan, I know you’ll both be awesomesauce parents (who may or may not say things like awesomesauce. )

    Congrats! I’ve been a reader for a few years now and was wondering whether you guys or Ross and Leslie would be the first to have a baby (which sounds incredibly creepy when I type it out lol).
