Cassie says whipped cream is her predominant craving at the moment, though this time around she’s being more aware of her nutrition when it comes to indulging her cravings.
“With Frankie, I ate everything. Literally, whatever I craved, I ate. In contrast, with this one, I’m making smarter choices,” she says. “I’m prioritizing eating salads with lots of protein (my doctor is adamant about protein). Plus, I walk in the hills around the house to get the blood flowing, and once in a while, I’ll work out with Alex in the gym, but I don’t do anything strenuous. And, of course, there’s running after Frankie every day — the biggest workout of them all.”
“Right now, I can’t imagine what it will be like to have two babies in the house. We have our little routine — we wake up, eat, play, nap — and I’m trying to wrap my mind around how it will be to add a new person to the mix.”
“I love this concept,” she says, “and think it’s a beautiful way to look at it.”
