Crocheting and cross-stitching! The crocheting is doubly nice because I sell baby hats so it makes me some money on the side. Not really enough to cover the cost of yarn that I use for personal projects, but it's something!

Running, reading...sometimes baking. That's about it. I need more hobbies!

Reading, shopping, I want to get into photography again but need a new camera, & we are planning on DIY around the house getting it ready to sell so I've been researching ideas to spruce it up & upgrade!

I like to make art and craft. Any free time is usually doing a DIY project for LO's birthday, the nursery (haven't started yet but have things on my mind), the house, gifts, etc.

@lisamarieloves: haha I approve of that hobby. When people ask me mine, I say going outside to the park with my kid lol!

Right now a lot of my time revolves around my son. But I do love crafting - sewing, making things, scrapbooking, etc... I especially love making baby headbands and bowties! Whenever someone gets pregnant I get so excited cause I get to help planning baby showers- stuff like that I love.

I also like to workout - well not *like to* but I spend several hours a week doing so.

In the summer I really like bike riding as well.

Oh and reading, but I generally find I do the other things more than reading. I need to make more time for it! I usually just end up watching TV instead.

@lisamarieloves: I wish we lived near the beach! What I love about bike riding is how easy it is to do with my son - he loves to sit in his seat on the bike. He would be content for hours! I love hobbies that transition well into parenthood.

@lisamarieloves: I felt like that during law school too but HAD to find something to do during bar studying or else I would have gone mad, so I did Bar Method every morning before sitting down for 9 hours of bar studying. Oh and some imbibing every once in a while -- lots of different types of "bar" going on that summer

I've recently got back into yoga/bar/pilates, so that's been a nice change from my regular workout routine (biking and running). I also love baking, doing arts and crafts, sending snail mail, decorating the house (both general decor and also decorating for the holidays), gardening, flower arranging, photography, spending time out on the patio, taking day trips/weekend trips, playing with the dogs, etc.

@lisamarieloves: Well I was always the fattest person there too and I always felt a little self-conscious since it was the flagship studio and the founder often took classes there. But then I remembered how much I love baking and eating and how much I enjoy that "hobby" too and would never be willing to give up baked goods and booze just to be a size 2. Then I felt much better I figure it's all good as long its in moderation!

@NorCalWayfarer: @lisamarieloves: I always feel that way in my classes at the gym - all the girls are so much smaller than me! I hate it!

I have not had free time in ages - since my son was born 14 mos ago. But I love to cook and I do run (with lo in jogging stroller).

@fancyfunction: I played violin for about ten years! I loved it! I kind of dropped it after I stopped taking lessons. I miss it sometimes!

@fancyfunction: I've considered it! I just have soo much else going on- like trying to get into nursing school- that I don't have the time to commit to it! That's awesome you found such a great outlet!
