Long overdue update!

Time flies when you're having fun (or when you have kids, lol!)  We are doing fantastic- Carter is almost 9 months old & Elisabeth is 13!! (yikes!)  I'm still doing training, but it's on a very limited basis- between babysitting and working for Pat in the office, life is busy!  God is good!!

FAITH-
God is so good- He has blessed us with a great family, a great church, & a happy life! It's 'God 1st' for me, and I thank Him daily for all that He does for us! I think that a lot of changes will be happening soon, and I'm excited to see how it all works out!

FAMILY-
Our family is doing well!  The kids are great and so are the 'parents' :)  My extended family is also pretty awesome - my sis is getting married this summer and I'm so excited for her & Shaun!  My brother, sis-in-law, and nephew are doing fantastic as well!  I'm so lucky to be able to watch my nephew and let the boys grow up together!  My grandma is still fighting some health issues, so please keep her in your prayers!

Here are a few pics from this winter through now:

Elisabeth, Carter & myself hanging out at a cheer competition!

Very proud of Elisabeth for getting an individual award!  Woohoo!!

My babies- he wasn't being too smiley this day due to teething :(

This is more like our usual family photo :)

He sure loves his daddy!

Action shots- Carter is quite the active little man!

FITNESS:

Work- I'm back to training, but on a pretty limited basis!  Between working for my hubby, babysitting 2 extra babies (almost-7 months old & 18 months old, in addition to my almost-9 month old!), & life- it's been busy! I am teaching a Mon/Tues/Thur class from 5:30-6, which has been awesome!  I've got a fantastic group of ladies that attend, & they are getting some awesome results! I try to constantly change up the class format- that way you (& your muscles!) never know what to expect other than a good workout!

Personal- I'm pretty proud of the progress that I've made so far! I'm 7 pounds under my pre-pregnancy weight now, and working hard to regain my strength :) Overall I'm getting good results- just a bit of toning to my middle that I'm still waiting on! LOL!!  I'm doing HIIT style workouts in the mornings 5-6 days a week, mixing in some walks & runs when the weather permits, & working out with my classes (when Carter cooperates!) I'm debating on whether or not to post some progress pics :)
