Mom to a Five year old!!!

My eldest son turned five today!  I can't believe how time sure flies. It seems like just yesterday I was holding and nursing him in my arms. I knew it would go fast... but I'm trying NOT to think about that...but enjoy every minute of every day.

Colton Travis King was born at 2:32 am on my parents ranch.  He was my first of three homebirth experiences. His was definitely my longest and hardest one!  But after 2 and a half hours of pushing, he finally arrived.  Though a little bruised, he was our beautiful, precious little boy!  I really do remember it as if it were yesterday.  Sean and I laid on the bed in awe that this little life and blessing from the Lord was finally here!  We prayed over him and thanked God over and over again...  

Here are some pictures on my old blog.     http://seansheila.mytinybaby.com/  Birth Story included!

And I found one picture from every August 12th.. or close to it! So you can see how's he's changed!

Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

My fitness goal: Get FIT!

Transformation story
I started the Insanity work out June 21st of 2010 after my husband and I watched the TV commercial. My first thoughts were.. yeah, right! Who can do that! Even though my husband is in the Army and knows the true meaning of PT...(Physical Training) I thought "I" could never do something that intense. Especially with THREE kids to watch and a house to maintain. I never thought I would have the energy or time to fit it in my schedule. After watching the commercial a second time... my husband said, "honey, if you think you want to try this, I'll order it for you"... by this point I was READY! My baby was 9 months old.. I had lost all my baby weight but I was completely out of shape. No energy and a loose un-sexy, out of shape body! Long story short... I have completely changed my lifestyle and I feel better than I have ever felt in my life! Not only did I have to change my exercise routines but I had to change the way I ate. Sure I tried to eat healthy before but after getting started on Shaun T's 60 day plan I was challenged to follow the advice on eating better, higher protein meals to fuel my body. It's never been so easy. I guess I felt like I had worked so hard (during my work out) that why would I want to eat anything that wasn't going to help me. I'd just be wasting my time. Thanks to my husband having faith in me and giving me the support I needed.. I did something I thought I could never do.  I lost 3 inches around my waist and got the toning that I desired. Most importantly I feel great and have more energy.

 Before Insanity... I wouldn't be caught dead in a bikini :) I wont say my tummy is as flat as I'd like.. but after having three children I am happy to be where I am.
