Hula Hooper

June 15, 2010 by Julie 53 Comments

First Time on Your Own: Healthy Food Ideas

Sadie called me at work after seeing my post this morning and was highly embarrassed that my blog not only featured a picture of her poppin’ a squat, but also showcased her doggie booty for the world to see. She requested that I post a more flattering picture of her, and since I fear the…
