Calli

Hello, my name is Calli. I’m 27, a wife, a mother of two perfect boys (ages 2 & 4), and a CrossFitter. I am privileged to be able to stay at home with my boys. I’m a firm believer in mothers taking time to care for themselves, and in doing so they become better wives, mothers, and homemakers. It stands true for me 100 percent! When I feel good, pretty, or fit, my day is productive in one form or another. For me those things don’t come easy... I work hard keeping up with my boys, and and keeping in shape, and keeping our home tidy and clean, and smoothing over any bumps in the road I come across. I find GREAT importance in feeling good about myself especially after kids, and more importantly... for my husband! (Poor guy has seen the worst of me and still loves me!) I’ve never felt like a fashion forward kind of girl, and have always felt kinda quarkie in the things that I’ve been attracted to, but that’s me. I’ve found my style to be a little bit
more relaxed/beachy. I LOVE skirts, I wear them often.

When I shop, I keep it simple. I shop for the long haul, making sure the pieces I choose are “timeless”. Of course I also have to consider the chances of them getting ruined, with two little boys! I love clothing exchange stores. There is always a diamond just waiting to be found! Being a CrossFitter, I tend to stay away from jewelry all together. Although, I do have two anklets, and a toe ring. What gives me drive is my CrossFit! Being fit can make you feel sexy in a pair of sweats! I have a blog (www.crossfitwomen101.com) where I not only post most of my CrossFit workouts & journey, but I also feature CrossFit athletes! Beginners, Trainers, Competitors (and everything in-between) are welcome. It’s a site that I hope will help motivate a healthy lifestyle. As most CrossFitters are, I’m very passionate about it, because it becomes a life style (not just a workout). It’s about finding your best self. (When you are healthy you feel better in all your clothes!) In my CrossFit journey I have a better outlook on life, and feel more prepared for the future. I am thankful for Jamie, and Stylin' Mommies! I've looked to this blog for inspiration many times!
