Hello!
My name is Claudia, and I live a small town life. I have a one-year-old daughter and she is the light of my life. I am a full-time student (again)- in pursuit of a second degree (nursing) and am currently waiting for my admission into the nursing program at my local university. My first degree is in human services, and I've honestly never used my degree, after graduating in 2012, I was pregnant and worked as a full-time substitute teacher (loved it)! I never sought out a career or a job, because after my daughter was born, she was admitted into the NICU because she had a subdural hematoma (blood on the brain) and that caused her to have a seizure, her body couldn't hold a steady temperature, and she had a hard time breathing at first. After a couple of weeks, she was able to come home with us but remained on anti-seizure medication as a precaution. After many trips to our local children's hospital and multiple EEGs, they determined that she was no longer at risk for seizures and we were able to wean her off of the seizure medications around 8 months old. I was terrified to leave her, even with my parents or J's parents for more than an hour. I'm sure they felt as though I didn't trust them- but that wasn't it at all. I was scared that if I left her, even for a few moments, that she would have a seizure or that something bad would happen. She is now a little over a year old, and I am better with my fear of leaving her, she stays with her grandparents two days a week while I attend school, and I nanny for a set of boy/girl two-year-old twins and am able to take her with me three days a week- I am blessed.
I love the Lord and my Bible. I do not claim to know much, and am learning more every day. I'm growing in my relationship with Christ and am eager to share my experiences with you all. I also post about weight loss and fitness. When I was pregnant, I gained close to 100 pounds (80 pounds is darn near close enough). I have lost about 60 pounds so far and am struggling to lose the last 20 pounds (that's the hardest part) right? So join me, in my journey with fitness and faith, and life in general- I'd love to have you! I also love to take photographs (when I have time- which isn't often). Most of the photos come from my iPhone, but I am trying to teach myself to use my Nikon D3100. Any tips/tricks are welcomed! I will also randomly post about tips with makeup/beauty/fashion when I feel the urge or when I learn something new- which isn't often, but I'll try my best to share what I learn.
You can find me on Instagram, Twitter, and Pinterest (I tend to be on Instagram the most). So follow along and send me a shoutout letting me know that you read my post!
