I'm happy being a stay at home Mom, it's what I knew I wanted to do when we had a baby. Greg (my husband) also works at home, telecommmuting to his company in Seattle. Our situation of both of us getting to share in raising Miles is something very unique and something we both treasure. He'll probably be our only child, so we want to really experience it fully.

Me getting a job wouldn't help anything, it would hurt everybody, including my body. I've never lost weight sitting behind a desk. At home I have access to a weight bench, a treadmill, and my best friend down the street with a baby herself to go for walks and hikes with during the week.
