Ear Tubes.

Took Kyra to the Dr. today...she is sick again:( Poor thing...we were up all night with her(which is very unusual despite she has been sick half of her life, she is just a super happy girl). I'm tired! Dr. said she has ear infections again. I made a appointment with the ENT for this coming Monday. Looks like we all have something to look forward to....Kyra is getting TUBES!

V-Day!

Happy Valentines Day!!

14 Things I Love About Brandon:

  1. Hard Worker- He doesn't just put 100% into his work, he puts 150% of himself. Yeah...remember the time he had MRSA. He was working 2 jobs at the time. He was supposed to be on bed rest for a month after his surgery and he still went to work.
  2. His Hot Body- We all know how sexy he is:) I can't keep my hands off of him, literally!!
  3. He isn't Picky- He goes for anything when it comes to food! He loves to eat, just about as much as me...
  4. His Testimony- He is such a strong person spiritually! What a great knowledge he has of the gospel.
  5. His Desire to Serve- He is always willing to help anyone out. If you ask me, this is one of the best qualities anyone could have!
  6. His Smile- I wish he would smile big always...He has such nice teeth(me working with teeth as long as I did, you knew I would say something along those lines) and I always love a great smile, especially his:)
  7. His Family- What a wonderful extended family I have...they are all so awesome! His momma is just the sweetest lady ever!
  8. His Love- We are two peas in a pod....we get along so well and he never gets sick of me. With him being raised around 5 girls he knows how to put up with me. He is always wanting to hug on me(don't know if it is just a guy thing to always be so lovey dovey) but it's cute! It makes me feel wanted and loved! Also, he loves his kiddos and can't wait to see them when he gets home from work!
  9. His Addiction to Off Road- He has always loved to go four wheeling, and he knows everything about it! Its fun going with him, too!
  10. His Neatness- Glad that he has to have things in order and clean. This definitely applies when it come to his garage and tools.
  11. He goes Grocery Shopping- Yes, you heard it right...he does most of our grocery shopping!
  12. He is Optimistic- What a great outlook he has...always thinking that things will work out. He always thinks positive with any situation. I tend to stress or look on the negative side of things a bit more, so its great the he can balance me out and help me look on the brighter side of life.
  13. He is Athletic- Even though he doesn't have the time right now for sports, he absolutely loves them! Church basketball is his thing, he enjoys playing with everyone in the stake.
  14. He's a mechanic- So glad that I don't ever have to worry about my car breaking down! He is always on top of it and one more thing...since he loves cars & drivin' and he is such a great driver, he is my personal chauffeur. If I don't have to drive then even better!
I love you, Babe!!!

Girl Crazzzyツ

Noah admitted to me the other night that he is girl crazy....Ohhh no, I'm in trouble now! He said that he likes Kennedee Martinez and he thinks that she likes him too. I said oh really, so how do you know that she likes you too? He said that he over heard her talking about him....hehehe...isn't that so funny!!

FYI: This is between you and I, so don't go asking him about his girlfriendツ

Happy Day.

Recently, Kyra has been walking around the house saying "happy day, happy day, happy day"....and she is just so cute about it! Maybe it is just the way she says it, but she is cute!! Don't ask me who she learned this from, but ever since she started saying it, it has set the tone just right in our home. If you weren't having a good day, well you are now...

Way Too Long.

WoW...It has been way too long since I posted last! I am still alive, for those that were wondering:) I will have to update my blog later...cause there is ohhh so much!

Life is busy for the Harrops!! Besides selling our house, being busy with Avid Off Road, and being a mother & wife....we are all good! I continue to count my many blessings! I was getting ready today and just began to cry. I have felt pretty overwhelmed lately, about whether or not Brandon and I were making the right decisions for our family. I now know that my Heavenly Father is aware of us, he loves us and wants the very best for my little tiny family!!! I definitely feel good about the things that will be happening, and I'm excited!

We had a buyer for our house, but the buyer dropped. So now it is back on the market, darn it! I'm tired of all this headache! Anyways, we will be moving to Gilbert, in about a month. We are going to rent from Beth and Eric for awhile. They needed a renter and so it worked out just perfect. We should be able to save and eventually be able to move into something bigger and something that works for the company. This house will be closer to Noah's school which will be nice:) I always hated driving him so dang far....but since I am so picky about his schooling, I had too.

Brandon will be quiting Toyota soon...Yeah! He is super excited and we are too! Avid is really picking up, and we aren't complaining:) It has been just 6 months since we started Avid and what a great experience this has been! For all those who haven't heard or are wondering what the heck Avid Off Road is. It's a off road fabrication company that we originally started for some extra income, but it has begun to take off and it is becoming more and more of a full time job for us. We recently purchased a Xiom system, so that we could offer powder coating to our customers. That is fun news!! Brandon just thought he was up to his ears, but now he really is.

The kids are all well, finally!! The flu has been crazzy this season! Ever since Kyra got back from our Halloween trip last October, she has been sick with ear infections. They just never have seem to go away with any of the antibiotics. She just finished her last medicine and if this medicine didn't work then they were going to put tubes in her ears. I took her in to see the doctor on Wednesday and got some great news! She is free of ear infections, Yeah! Noah is busy with school, trying to keep those grades up. Him and his homework keep us busy! I am so proud of him though, I never really have to study with him, he just seems to know it! It makes it alot more easier for me let me tell ya...He is still playing piano, and is getting better with every lesson! He can't wait for summer to be here, so he can play football.

As for me, busy has become my middle name. I'm trying to stay sane and be there for the kids and my hubby. I don't know how well I'm doing but I have almost lost my mind a few times, just ask my 9 year old. He will tell you how crazy his mother is:) I've been waking up at 5:20 every morning just so I can get some alone time in for myself. It has been working out pretty good. Anyone that knows me well, knows that I absolutely love to exercise. So that is just what I have been filling my alone time with, and I simply love it!!!
