This pro-surfer has a baby on board. There, we said it.
This makes us so, so happy.
You may have heard of Bethany Hamilton.

Bethany is not only known for surviving a shark attack, her surfing prowess and for being the "Soul Surfer". Bethany & Adam were on the most reason season of The Amazing Race. Bethany was - well - AMAZING!! She was able to do all the challenges, some that seemed impossible for someone with a missing arm. They raced hard and came second in the final. From how she managed some of the challenges, it's easy to see that she has adapted her abilities to manage without an arm, and I've no doubt she'll be able to do so when looking after a baby.
