Avie is 1





Time is going so fast. It's seems like I just had Avie and now she is one. I usually am excited when my kids get older. I enjoy them being able to talk to me and play with me. For some reason the night before Avies Birthday I got all sad. You need to understand with me, newborns are fun to hold and look at but to me they bring me so much anxiety. Allie ruined me. She was such a hard newborn she would cry for hours on end and I never new what to do to get her to stop. So when I see a newborn or have one I love how tiny they are but I get those anxiety feelings from when Allie was a baby and I can't wait for when they are 3 months, 6 months and a year. But now that Avie is a year I don't want her to get any older. I love the ages of my kids right now Allie is 4 Aubrie is 2 and Avie 1. We have so much fun together. We play all day Avie is starting to say Bye and Hi and just wants to be like her older sisters. My girls bring me so much happiness. I love watching them and seeing mine and Dusty's personality traits come out in each of them.




Avie was our big surprise baby. I was 7 months pregnant with Aubrie when I found out I was pregnant with her. This was not the plan they were supposed to be 2 1/2 years apart. I had a hard time in the beginning with it. I was nervous to have 3 kids under the age of 3. Patience is not my strongest trait. I love getting out of the house and I kept thinking how in the world will I do that with 3! I remember one time specifically where I was sitting in relief society and I was probably 8 months along and really feeling like how in the world am I going to do this! I started praying and I got this overwhelming feeling that if I asked for help I would not have to do it alone. It was the best feeling and reassurance that I could do this and even though we have had some rough times I know that when I ask for help I have always received it. I love that we never have to do things alone. It just takes us to make the effort and ask. When Avie was born and I held her for the first time I had this feeling come over me that she was supposed to be here on earth at this exact time. It wasn't my plan to have her that soon but it was someones else and I am so grateful that she is here now. I love having 3 girls so close. I love watching the friendships that are starting to grow between them. Avie is so special and I can't imagine life without her!
Happy 1st Birthday Avie!

Allie is 4

I can't believe my baby is 4. The last 4 years have done faster then I thought they would. All she wanted for her birthday was a Jessie costume. So I found one and she would not take it off...she wanted to wear it to preschool...to bed...to the park. I gave in and let her wear it to bed and outside to play but she had to wear her clothes if we went in public :)
I decided to steal this idea that I saw on another blog.

She keeps telling her birthday was the best...this makes me feel so good. My Mom always made birthday special and I hope i can do that for my kids. She started off the day with the downstairs decorated...her Jessie costume hanging from the light...thats where she wanted it. When she came downstairs she was so excited she just kept jumping up and down.

She wanted rainbow pancakes so I made those for her. Doesn't her hair look amazing!
After breakfast she and to go to school...she kept telling me...Mom now that I am 4 you don't need to walk me into preschool I can do it myself. So when we got to school she jumped out of the car and said bye Mom. So cute...she has not let me walk her in since.


After school Allie had her cousin Ashley and our neighbor boy Luke come over for lunch and games. We painted little lunch boxes and put on washable tattoos and played dress up. After that we took the kids to Kangaroo Zoo. they had a blast and played there for almost 2 hours!



The kids were all worn out when we were done



When we got home we had family over for dinner and cake. That night at bedtime she told me Mom today was the best day ever. This just melted my heart! I love my Allie girl!

Scipio Rodeo


The 24th of July is the best in Scipio. There are so many things going on and my kids have such a fun time. We start off the morning with the parade which we get to be in so my kids were really excited about that. Then there is town games at the park where the kids get to run races and play games...after that we head home and relax till the rodeo that night.

All the Robins Grandkids (except Ben)

Aubrie had a rough night at the rodeo...it all started when she dumped Dutys 42 oz drink all over herself. She does not like to have anything wet on her so she immediately took her clothes off. So she ran around the rodeo for the most part in a diaper and no clothes or just her shorts. I finally got her clothes pretty dry then she spilled her slushie all over herself so I just gave up and let us be white trash :)

Pictures

I found these cute pictures on my computer and I needed to put them up. I love my girls!!






Aubrie is 2

My little Aubrie turned 2 on July 21. We decided this year since she does not need any toys we were going to rent a bounce house and have a fun party here at the house. It was so fun and turned just as I pictured.

We got the bounce house from Castle Rock bounces they were great and we were able to have it all day for such a great price!

The cakes! I decided to make the cake this year I was happy with the turn out!


The inside of the cake


We had so many friends and Family there it was awesome. my sister-in law Paris and her son Jaxen were driving through Utah and were able to make it to the party. we were so excited to have them here.



Some fun things about Aubrie....she has potty trained herself. One day she just decided she no longer wanted to wear diapers and wanted to go potty on the big potty like Allie. We are still working on it but she is doing sooo good. She has a lot of energy and likes to run around all day long. She talks really well and can say just about anything. My favorite thing she says is when you ask her to do something she says "sure". She has so much spunk and personality I could watch her all day and laugh.
