Happy July, beautiful mamas! Summer is here- which is exciting for most, unless you are 7 months pregnant and constantly sweating... like myself ;-)

My name is Kellianne, but most of you know me as "Kelli". I was born and raised in Fremont, CA (the Bay Area) and I came to San Diego in 2004 for college... and never left! I have been a Pediatric Nurse at Rady Children's hospital for 17 years. I love what I do and my coworkers, so it's hard to imagine ever doing anything else.

I met my husband in 2018 on one of the many dating apps. We instantly connected over our shared love of music and similar life goals. Several concerts later, we were married in 2021 in a small, family-only ceremony in my childhood backyard. It was really special! A year later, we had a big reception/party in San Diego to celebrate with all of our family and friends. One month later, we were overjoyed to find out that we were pregnant!

Emma was born in May 2023 and changed our lives forever in the best way possible! Being her mom is the best job I could ask for and I can't wait to see her as a big sister. Little brother is expected in September and we are so excited (and a tad scared...haha). But I know I have my tribe of amazing mamas to help me navigate the transition from 1 to 2 babies.

I tell everyone that the absolute BEST thing I did for myself postpartum, was joining Fit4Mom. The support, the friendships, the workouts, the activities... it has all been such a crucial part of helping me navigate the ups and downs of motherhood. I am so thankful for this group and I am already getting sad thinking about 3-4 years down the road when I won't be able to come anymore. (Or maybe I'll just keep finding a baby to borrow so I can attend class forever!!)
