Welcome to The Champagne Theory

We are so glad you found us! Allow us to introduce ourselves. We are Heather and Alix, two Orange County girls who landed in Seattle with our husbands and children (and fur babies). And it just so happens that we live less than 10 blocks away from one another. Bonus!

Not only do we have our geography in common, but a love for fashion, nutrition, fitness, motherhood and above all: CHAMPAGNE.

Why the love for champagne you might ask? Well, Heather has two little boys: an almost 3 year old and 1 year old and Alix has a 17 month old little girl. What other reason do we need to always have the bubbles nearby? Whether we are planning an afternoon at the park with the kids or a girls night out (or let’s be honest, we’d rather stay in) you can bet that champagne will be invited to the party.

We both used to be full time professionals: Alix is a Registered Dietitian who once had her own private practice and Heather worked in the corporate insurance industry. However, once we both had kids our professions took a back seat to the most important job in the world: being a mom. Yet, outside of the many, daily responsibilities of motherhood we have both craved a creative outlet for ourselves, which led us here to The Champagne Theory.

This is us after two glasses of champs.

We plan to blog topics that interest us. Being that Alix is an RD, we will have Wellness Wednesday’s that focus on nutrition hot topics, recipes and fitness. We love working out, especially together, and will share our experiences with different types of workouts. And what better way to get motivated for a workout class than with fab athletic gear? We will definitely share some of our favorite finds. We will also dive into parenting topics – some more controversial than others. Sleep training, potty training, transitioning to a toddler bed, registry items we couldn’t live without – we want to cover it all and give you an inside look at our own personal experiences.

With all of that being said, life is about finding balance and there is nothing we love more than enjoying an occasional bottle glass of champagne after a long day. In fact, that’s how our blog name came to be. Our theory is that no matter how crazy life gets, there is always time for a glass of bubbles. There is always time to take care of yourself. So cheers to you!
