Updates, Updates

I realized it's been forever since I've updated this blog.  I've been BUSY!!! 

Children:  The boys are doing great!  T is finally out of his rebellious stage and back to the sweetheart he used to be. Sure, he has his days.  But I don't feel like I'm going to snap every second of every day.  He has also asked Jesus into his heart!!!!  PROUD MOMMA!  I realize he's only 3 and might not understand, but he has a desire to serve Jesus and already has a love for him.  Today he told me he wanted to go to Heaven so he could say "hi" to God.  So sweet.  Little L is also a much happier kiddo these days.  He has the BEST laugh and the BEST smile.  It melts my heart!  He is finally starting to talk more.  He can of course say Momma and Daddy.  He can also say More, Tyler (sort of...), Doggie, and Truck.  He is really trying to say a ton of other things, but I don't understand yet.  He went pee on the potty three times yesterday!!!  How amazing is that?  He hasn't asked to sit at all today and I'm not going to force it, but I still think he's amazing.  He figured out how to climb out of his crib, and has not slept well since...  it's been rough!  He is starting to do better.  It just takes him a while to adjust to new things. 

J:  Hubby got a new...well, sort of new, kind of old...job.  He's back to the old company...well, sort of, again, HA!...  The old company was bought out by a new company, but they kept a lot of the people he worked with.  They all love J and wanted him back, so they made him an offer we couldn't refuse.  Leaving Lockheed was scary for me.  I was comfortable with them and felt like they would always take care of J.  J is much happier at this job, and overall, it was a smooth transition.

Walk with God: My devotionals are hit or miss these days.  I don't go to the Bible study anymore, either.  I need to do better with that! 

House: Another area I need to improve...big time....

Health and Fitness: This is probably the area with the biggest improvement.  My wonderful sister and I joined a gym.  Then my mom joined.  Then I started taking classes.  A friend from church convinced me to go to the bootcamp class with her.  It's HARD but I am so happy I've started going.  My muscles ache after, but I feel like I leave there with a good workout.  I've started meeting weekly with a friend who is a nutritionist.  She's trying desperately to help me feed my family healthier meals.  I feel bad because I'm not the best student, but I'm definitely trying!  I'm also running, again.  J gave me until the end of the year to go 10 miles in 2 hours for my dog, and by golly, I'm doing it!  I'm up to 3 miles at 11:30, but I can also run a mile (single mile...) under 10 minutes now!  Woop Woop!

Ok, that's it for the update, I will try to start blogging more regularly again  :)  Good Night, all!
