Hello All!
Christmas break flew by WAY too fast. We had a great holiday season. Wyatt really made out like a bandit. We got to talk to Brannick on Christmas day. That was the greatest present ever!! He is doing great. He loves the Country and the people he is serving.
School started back up last week. I keep hoping that I'll get a nap but between school and Wyatt and getting Trey to soccer practice I can't ever seem to fit one in.
But, life is good here. There isn't much to report. I hope everyone out there is doing great. I'll keep you updated as more events unfold!

P.S.

I know that postage to Norway can get kinda pricy so if you want to mail or e-mail me your letters I will get them to him. If you e-mail me I will be glad to give you my address. Thanks

Brannick is getting ready to leave the MTC in about a week for Norway. He has asked me to ask people to start writing him. If you know spanish please write him in Spanish. He doesn't want to lose the language. He says that Norwiegen is taking over his life. Someone was talking to him in Spanish and he went blank. So he would really appreciate it. His address in Norway will be;
Elder Brannick Lloyd Harris
Norway Oslo Mission
Postboks 94
1306 BPT
Norway
Thank you!

I know I always promise that I'll post more often but I'm serious this time. The semester is almost over so maybe just maybe life will settle down a little bit. Then again, maybe not... With Thanksgiving coming up, Wyatt's first birthday just around the corner and Christmas on it's way it might actually be another six months before I get back on here...

As most of you know Brannick left for his mission on the 1st of October. He is loving it so far. But he is sick of the MTC. He will leave for Norway on December 1st. The language is comeing so easily for him. I am so proud of my little brother. He is such a wonderful example to me.

Wyatt is walking! Wyatt is running! Wyatt just can't sit still for two seconds. He is growing up so fast. Everyday he is learning new things. And he continually melts my heart. He has such a sweet spirit and such a tender little heart. He said his frist word ( if it counts, I'm not sure) UH OH! Any time he drops something or falls he just says "UH OH". I'm so proud of him!

Trey is doing great. He is such a good reader. He is a great example to his nephew. And such a big helper with him as well. He just finished up the soccer season with a big win. He is already looking foward to the sprin season.

I'm doing great! The semester is almost over and I am finishing up my clinicals this week. School keeps me pretty busy but I love it. 5 more semesters and I'm done!!! Yes I am already counting down. I am so greatful for my moms help. Without her I wouldn't be able to do it. Or anything for that matter. I love her. I love my family and I love my friends. I appreciate and am truly greatful for all of your help and support.

This past month broght us a roller coaster of events! I made the decision to go back to school. A good decision but it is definetly hard with a baby. I am getting my CNA this semester so that I can get a decent job to help put me through nursing school. I am going to school full time taking night classes. Wyatt is getting so big. The poor little guy got sick a couple of weeks ago and I had to take him to the doc to get some antibiotics. He ways 19 lbs! I swear he feels more like 25. He has rolls everywhere! Even on his heels and toes. I am trying to get a good picture of it. When I do I'll be sure to post it ASAP. He has three teeth now and is working on another. It is amazing to watch him grow and learn. I can't believe how smart he is. He is trying to figure out the walking thing. He is so ready to take off. He just doesn't quite get it yet. Aside from school and baby duty, mom and I have been working to get Brannick ready for his mission. Who knew that would be so much work. By the way, his farewell is going to be September 21. Afterward we will be having a dinner at moms. We would love to have everyone! Well that's it for now.

Travel, Travel, Travel

2008-07-12T15:58:00.000-07:00

Well it has been a very crazy past couple of weeks. We made another trip up to Colorado. This time for the wedding of two great friend of ours, Cassie and Brandon. It was such a beautiful wedding. We wish them the very best. As soon as we got back Justin was off to a week in the field playing Army boy again. (He does this quite often.) He was gone over the 4th so Wyatt and I, along with Uncle Brannick, went to Silver City to see my dad. Then we went to the ranch to visit my Grandparents. We have been on the road A LOT! Somewhere in the middle of all of this traveling Wyatt learned to crawl. Needless to say, he is into EVERYTHING!!! His new favorite toy is the trashcan. So now I have to hide it in the laundery room, therefore, his new favorite game is find the trashcan. Silly boys! Here in a couple of weeks we will be moving yet again. This time we are moving on to WSMR. It will deffinetly be interesting living on an Army base. I'll be living like a true Army Wife. But I think it will be nice. We are excited. Hopefully we are done traveling and moving for a while.

This is Justin and I thinking we are cool. While we were in Co we drove over to Estes Park. It was so beautiful... Our first outing without the baby in a really long time. We enjoyed it but we only lasted about an hour without him.

Three weeks later...

2008-06-15T17:53:00.000-07:00

Ok, Ok... I know it has been FOREVER since I last posted, and I always promise to post more often, this time I mean it! So here a little bit of what's been going on in our neck of the woods...

We made a trip to Colorado for my sister in laws Graduation. CONGRATS Krissy! It was such a nice trip. It is so beautiful up there. And no where near as hot as it is at home. And it was so nice to see our friends and spend time with the family. We are going back in a couple of weeks for a wedding. I think I might just stay...

Mom and Trey moved back to Las Cruces. Whoo Hoo!!! I am so glad to have them back.

For the most part we havne't had a whole lot of excitment. We just stay really busy. Justin works really hard. Wyatt and I play and run a lot of errands. We make about two trips to Wal-Mart every day. Doesn't everyone love Wal-Mart!? Well that's it for this post. More soon. I promise.

2008-06-05T11:32:00.000-07:00

Tagged again!

3 joys: My family, The fact that I no longer work!( That didn't last very long lol) Mom and Trey are moving back TODAY!!!!

3 fears: Something happening to those I love, Roaches, Clowns

3 goals: Organize my hose. Go on vacation. Pay off the car and truck.

3 Current Obsessions: Wyatts laugh, blogging, finding a new town to live.

3 Random Facts: I never learned to crawl when I was a baby. My nose itches very badly right now. I want to shoot my truck!

Over the past couple weeks...

2008-05-20T11:52:00.000-07:00

I know I promised everyone that I would post at least once a week.... I have been really busy!!!! Anyway, I started a new job. I work for a company called Convergys. It's a decent job. I love the people I work with. But it breaks my heart that I don't get to spend ever minute with Wyatt. Although he LOVES his babysitter. So that helps a lot. Justin just got back on active duty with is a huge relief!! He works out at White Sands at WTC(Warrior Transition Course). They train the Navy and Air Force guys that are changing to Army. He is really excited about it. My mom also got a new job, she will be the nurse at the Juvi her in Cruces. I am really excited about having her back over here. Wyatt is now sitting up all by himself!!!! He is grabbing ahold of everything he sees and is trying soo hard to cut his tooth! Brannick has been waiting patiently for his mission call and it finally came Friday! He is going to Norway!!! He will be learning a third language which I think is really cool. We are so excited for him. But he doesn't leave until October.... good for us, sucks for him. He is sooo ready to get over there! Well everyone I hope you are all doing great! I'll post again soon. Love you all!

He also started scooting. He now loves Sweet Potatoes... He has to grab everything in site and is still the cutest little boy around! At his last appointment 2 weeks ago he was a wopping 15 lbs and 24 inches long! Justin and I are doing great. Justin just works hard. I finally got the guts to chop off all my hair.
