slackin'

Okay I know I am terrible and keeping this blog up to date.  I don't even know when the last time was that I posted anything so if I repeat something, forgive me

I am working at Lakeview Hospital still in the Behavioral medicine unit. I am also going to school for my Bachelors degree at Western Governors University right now.  Its an online program and hasn't been too bad.  I should be done with it by next September at the latest. And then I am mommy to 4 kiddos and wife to 1.  Life is pretty much insane.  I never thought about it, it was just something I did, but the other day, one of the other nurses I was talking to turned to me and said that there was never a time in the last 10 years that I haven't been insanely busy.  And there really hasn't been, I don't get days where I can just sit on the couch and do nothing, and not have anything or anyone waiting for me.  But I don't mind most days, its what I chose for my life and I really wouldn't have it any other way.

The first term of the school year is already up for Emma and Maycee. They both have raving reports from their teachers-little smarty pants!  Emma is excelling in everything she does.  And Maycee is right up there too.  Maycee doesn't enjoy it like Em does but she is doing well nonetheless.  Its fabulous to watch your children succeed and do so well and it is the hardest to watch them struggle and make their own choices, for good or bad, and then live with the consequences.  I wish I could put them in a bubble, but then I don't really because I want them to have the best experiences in life and learn and grow, and they wouldn't know the great without knowing the bad.

Wyatt is my BOY!  He is such a crazy little boy, but he's not so little.  He is insanely busy and moves from one activity to the next in less than a minute most days.  I cannot even begin to keep up with him.  He is so independent and wants to do everything himself. I love his cute freckled face to death! He is loving preschool and Miss Tammy.  His speech is getting better and more words are recognizable now to more than just me.  I still have to translate for many people but it is improving.

Olivia is 10 months old.  I can't believe that she is almost one already.  She is such a happy baby and definitely a terrific ending to our family.  She is always smiling and she has a wonderful baby laugh.  We all love her to death.

Brad is working and will hopefully be done with the job he's on soon.  He went hunting with his brother and dad a few weeks ago and is slowly working on rebuilding his fishing boat.  He works so hard and I love him more than ever!

That about sums it all up...I'll get some pictures on here soon...
