Babies are the new Black.

Phew!!!! Yesterday was the Power of Movement, Canada's largest yoga fundraiser! This is my second year being an ambassador for this wonderful organization, and this year, I was able to bring a little friend!

My little buddha. 

This child made me the most popular woman in the room. And by "most popular", I mean no one gave a crap about me as they ooed and awed over my 3-month old baby. We (read: Colton) made it into two newspapers this morning!

Is he alive?

My son has never been more terrified than at this moment. 

Like I need extra weight in my hips. 

The day was a huge success, thanks in part to some very hard working people- one being deserving of a shout out! Emily is the National Event Manager and whips this sucker in to shape like it's nobody's business. This year she was busy being a participant with her beautiful new baby girl Audrey!

There she is, showing off baby Audrey! 7 weeks old and she is a freaking yoga champion. Bitch. 

The event funds research for the Arthritis Research Foundation- and it was a great way to raise awareness of Arthritis and Autoimmune Diseases that so many Canadians suffer with every day. Yoga is the perfect form of movement for this event, as it is one of the most inclusive forms of exercise, with many modifications available. I personally deal with chronic shoulder pain and attribute yoga to keeping my sense of mobility.

Is my son there? I can barely see over my huge rack. 

Why there weren't more men here... I'm not sure. 

This hurt like a mofo.

It was so great to be with hundreds of others who sun saluted, warriored, and downward dogged for a good cause. We were team Hot Yogis (I wanted to call our team the "Yogasms"... but I got denied. I wonder why), which included lovely ladies Michelle from Push.Pump.Progress, Sarah from My (Mostly) Healthy Life, and Krysten from The Misadventures of a Darwinian Fail!

Audrey, get your head in the game.

Yes, I'm eating a brownie. Even though it was made of chickpeas and dates, it had chocolate in it. Enough said. 

Yoga, amazing women, babies, brownies, and raising money for a good cause. Overall the perfect day.
