Life, Running, Kids, No Internet

Since November I have had a cough that comes and goes whenever it wants. My doctor just says oh don't worry you are fine. Okay, So what am I paying you for? So my cough is back the weather changed again here in Florida so what is the best time to cough again. It's now because I'm preparing for a run with my kids. I hope I don't die like yesterday running with the family just one mile. I was so happy to see my house and driveway. I gave it my all the last block literally fell on the ground. I was so out of breath. My hubby thought I was playing around until he helped me up. It has to be the pollen that turns my black car to yellow. I'm fine in the gym which is bizarre to me as long as I don't run.  Looking for a new doctor hopeful this goes away. I still kill it now I have a butt. Yeah me on my way squatting 90 lbs one leg. Talking to a few people about fitness goals I'm finding that if you want to lose weight or build muscles you have to change the way you think. I'm a positive person always have been. It's hard to always see the bright side of life. Even when I was pregnant I loved the way I looked. I embrace who I am and my body. I think it has a lot to do with my family. The women of my family have always had a negative outlook on themselves. Which in turn did the opposite for me. I loved myself at an early age. Fitness is a huge part of my life. It is what keeps me sane. It is who I am as a Mother, Wife, Friend and me. I laugh about it now since I'm shrinking. I told my hubby I was shrinking a few years ago he didn't believe me until I bought new shoes the other day. Either I have been wearing the wrong shoe size since I was 14 years old from a nine in a half to a size eight or I'm shrinking. I'm going to go with shrinking everything else on me is. The ladies in power mode class on Monday says it could be when you start getting old. It was a good laugh I turn 33 last month and shrink at the same-time. What else in in store for me this year.

I see YouTube channels for both my boys. Christopher is making a video everyday to put on his YouTube channel he wants. I think I will make one Daddy says No. I think I can change his mind if I put one up.

Justin is a Minecraft freak who wants to record what he does on his game. First we have to see how his room set up goes. The boys might be switching rooms. Christopher has the bigger room. Redoing the whole house is a lot of fun. Between school, work, magic club and whatever my boys are doing trying not to die is a huge task. I need a break I see a trip to the ocean real soon. We cut the cable and Internet off. It's been about a month to see if our boys could do without. I have to say it has been better this last week. I wasn't the favorite person in the household when I cut it off. I didn't realize how much we really do need the web. Sitting in Starbucks is getting old on Wednesdays. I have to hang in there to prove a point now. We all have a bet to who caves first. My money is on the man of the house. Hubby can't hang in too much longer without the politics news. We will see who wins! Never give up on yourself. Change will come in time. 

Popsicle

Christopher is five years old with an attitude just like me. He is extremely over the top on everything. He is always telling me I'm his beautiful momma. He loves me and will never let me go. He makes me smile everyday. Even with his horrible breath in the morning that makes me want to vomit. Like how can someone so small have bad breath. It's gross and is the first thing we do together in the morning is brush our teeth. There is no way anything else is happening before that.  He has an imagination about space, Minecraft, lifting weights and talking in different voices that makes me happy God made me his mother. Here are some silly pictures of him last night taking a bath. He hates school because it's boring to him. He says "He needs some action because he is over school! We have been talking about painting his room so far there is no organize theme. It's super hero's with a few Dino's a splash of Minecraft a little bit of space and family pictures. All his idea's. I'm not sure how it will all come together yet. I'm sure fine since I will let him take the rope on this one. Christopher is ball of energy that never stops. He brings out the best in our little family. He has so much life in him. An old soul in a little body. Everyone he comes in contact with says the same thing about him. He is amazing                                                                            little person. That or just being nice.

  

Five years of being a parent to another little person who is growing up so fast. He makes life worth living. I can't tell you how much he bugs his big brother yet will come back with a smart ass comment that will make his brother laugh. They are truly best friends. He is not afraid of being silly or looking silly. 

He loves mystery books. We are reading sleepy hollow right now. 

When I want a picture he has some weird face he makes every time. I have to act a fool behind the camera to even get a good picture of him. That's okay Justin is at the stage where he is starting to care then snaps back because we are acting a fool. If someone rings the door bell Christopher turns into this.

As of today he wants to be called Night Ninja. I can't wait to see what tomorrow will hold. 

The reason I live

 My kids are the reason I live. They are the reason I get up every morning. I know they watch everything I do. They have discipline to go forward with their goals they set.   We are a fit family. These pictures where taken before school on Friday. They kill me getting ready to leave they drop and complete ten push-ups for the morning. 

Justin is taking weight lifting a little more serious since next year he will be in high school. I can't  it's too soon for my baby to be growing up. 

He already has a six pack cut in. Oh no is all I have to say about that. Daddy mention girls uh NO big fat No.  I want him to be focus on school not girls. He is not allowed to date until he can support her.  He has been busy since he could walk with sports and he will continue to be too busy for girls come next year. Girls already call him wanting to video chat uh No again. Where are their parents? 

Christopher cracks me up as of right now he wants to grow up and be a body builder. Which is fine with me. We will see how he changes as he gets older. We won't be making the super hero race today. Allergies have had a hold of  three of us for over two weeks. It makes it hard to run with a five year old who only wants to cuddle and sleep. We will have a chance for another 5k in March. Until next time my readers stay fit be happy.
