Living a Life Fueled by Healthy Food and Fitness
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!! How exciting! I am looking forward to following along on your pregnancy journey. Oddly enough, as I was catching up on your posts this week, I even had the thought, I wonder when they will be adding to the fam! I am so interested to see how Sadie does with no longer being the baby in the family! 🙂 Congrats again xoxoxo
Yay!! I knew it, I knew it, I knew it!! I have been waiting for this day since I started reading your blog 4 years ago! Just between you and I, I have a strong feeling Gina Harney over at The Fitnessista may be expecting as well. 😉 (I could be wrong but I just have this feeling!)
Congratulations to you, Ryan and Sadie! I’m sure you all and your families are over the moon!
Congratulations!! What wonderful news! Blessings to you both (and Sadie!)

Yay!! Congratulations!! So exciting. Sadie will be an awesome “big sister”! I just had a baby last summer and have loved watching him interact with our vizsla!
Yay!!! Congratulations Julie and Ryan!!
OMG! Congratulations!!!
congrats! I’ve been reading for a good while and kept thinking, “man those two would be AWESOME parents!” 🙂
I feel like I’ve been your #1 friendly stalker to see when/how you were going to announce the big news. SO excited for you, and can’t wait to hug that little bump! xoxox
<3 thanks for sharing in the excitement!!
Congrats! Your announcement is absolutely adorable! I love it!
Ahh, so exciting!! I did notice you had stopped drinking coffee 🙂 CONGRATS!
Aww yay!!!! I’ve been reading your blog for years now and I couldn’t be more excited for y’all! I can’t wait to read the pregnancy workout posts 🙂
This is amazing! It’s hilarious how excited this just made me. I’ve been a daily reader for years and I’m so happy for you two (and Sadie, the big sister to-be!)
Congratulations to Ryan and you! I have been reading your blog for a while now and really enjoy your positive outlook on life. I am more like your mom’s age, but still enjoy your content and your grounded way at looking at life. I’ve been following along with your travels and adventures, was rooting for your sister to marry her boyfriend, was interested in your most recent move, and all along in the back of mind was wondering about that “next step”. You are such a fine young woman and will make a wonderful mother as well. I’m sure that positive, unaffected attitude you bring to your daily life will translate over to how your raise your little one. Blessings!
thank you so, so much!! <3 your comment definitely made me smile!!!
Congrats Julie! I have been reading your blog for a while now and it’s so exciting to hear such wonderful news!!
Congratulations! That’s so wonderful.
Congratulations!!!!! so exciting!!!!! You are in for the absolute best time of your life.
I am so happy for the two of you. 🙂
Congratulations, Julie and Ryan! I have been reading for quite some time now and feel like you are good friends, so I am just so so incredibly happy for you!! Can’t wait for the periodic baby updates!! Your parents must be so excited for their first grandchild!! Eeeee!
Congratulations!!!
Congratulations to both of you!!!
Okay, I totally should’ve written it down somewhere because about three weeks ago I told the Mr “I think Julie is pregnant.” I can’t think of anything you wrote to hint at it or anything. Must’ve been that glow! 😉
Congrats to you all (including Sadie!)
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh congrats!
Congratulations! So exciting! When you mentioned going off birth control I have to say I was wondering if a baby announcement would come soon! 🙂 I’m 4 weeks pregnant myself and can’t wait to follow along with your pregnancy!
Truth be told, we weren’t even thinking babies when I wrote that post!! I really did get off it b/c I hated the way I felt on birth control. 🙂 But a baby did come shortly after and we are so thrilled!
And big congrats to you!!
Congratulations!!
Congratulations!! So excited for you! I’m actually 15 weeks pregnant with my first! Yay for August babies!
Congratulations!! What an exciting time. My husband and I are expecting our first in April and I CAN’T WAIT to hear more about your pregnancy. It’s an amazing journey to say the least!
Congratulations!!! I’ve been reading your blog for quite a long time and it feels just like finding out about a friend. So happy for you and Ryan!!
I have been reading your blog since right after you two got married. Its been so fun to watch your relationship grow.
I am so happy for you both!! Can’t wait to watch this new journey. 🙂
