Expecting her second child with husband Curtis Conway, world champion athlete and Dancing with the Stars veteran Laila Ali shares the ups and downs of her pregnancy experience with UsMagazine.com.

Hello everyone!

I can't believe that another year has gone by so quickly. When I was a teenager, I was in such a hurry to grow up. I can remember the adults in my life telling me how quickly time goes by. Now I get it!

The older we get, the faster the years pass. So I constantly try to remind myself to take time to enjoy life, because tomorrow is not promised. This is a great time of year to reflect on the past 12 months, set goals for the next 12 months, and enjoy time with your family.

Speaking of my growing family…I am so excited and pleased to announce that I am having a girl! Her name will be Sydney J. Conway.

I've even started buying little outfits for her when I spy them in the sale section.  However, exerting self-control at the sale rack is like trying to exert self-control around all of the cookies, cakes, gift baskets and sweets that seem to be everywhere right now!  But I fight the urge as much as I can. To help maintain my self-control, I allow myself a "cheat day" on Saturdays when I can eat whatever I want. I'm not talking about a nibble of this or that, but literally whatever I want. I love Saturdays!
