The Robnett Zoo

Every year when I do their birthday posts I get so emotional. Looking back through photos, laughing and crying through the memories. Where does the time go? I try with all my might to embrace and capture and cherish every moment, yet I still feel like they are rapidly slipping through my fingertips.    Five. sigh. Five years ago I met you for the first time and my heart has never been the same. I knew I would love being your mom, but I had no idea how much. I had no idea my heart was capable of loving the way it does now. I didn't realize the intensity of it all. You have changed me, helped me and rocked my world in the best way possible. I think about the years from now when you won't need me the same way and my heart just aches. If I could just bottle up this season, the tone of your voice, the precious things you say and keep them forever and always. Today is everything. The now. The years I always dreamed of.  Colt, your spirit is amazing. Your creativity, your sensitivi

I just LOVE how these turned out! I just wish I could of got Oliver to join in on this session. He said he was too old to do the lemonade stand thing.. lol..He is growing up just a little to fast!!   My sweet baby boy looks way to big here!!   This has to be one of my favorites.  Storrie has to be the prettiest baby ever!!     Can hardly wait for next months mini session. It will be Easter themed:) Now just to figure out what they are going to wear..

4 months! I can not believe it has already ready been 4 months since this sweet angel came into our family, but I also can not remember life with out her. Sadly Lilly got a hold of your 4 moth sticker and had it torn up before I could get your picture with it:( My sweet baby doll... You are such a blessing to our family. As I have said many times.. You are the piece that has been missing. We are now a complete family since you came into our lives. I swear you are the sweetest baby on the planet. You are all smiles and giggles. You have the most beautiful laugh and I just adore to hear you "talk". Your brothers and sister think you hung the moon. Lilly is always smothering you with kisses and wanting to hold you. She wants so bad for you to play with her. You my little baby doll, bring so much joy to our home. And not to just us, but to so many others. All our friends are in total love with you and just can not get enough of your snuggles. My only complaint is that

Or I should say on my knees praying!!! Yesterday I took Colt and Lilly to the Montessori school for a interview. I swear Colt was more excited then he looks... He was just not in the mood to have his picture taken   I love the way this school tackles learning. It is such a calm environment with a lot of one on one. The children work at their own pace. I had not worry that Lilly would be accepted.  She is so bright, even advanced for her age. She LOVES to learn. Matter of fact when the teacher came out after the interview with Lilly her exact words where "She is so bright and such a joy". I was however worried about Colt. I know that he is a very smart little boy. He proves that to us daily. But if a subject does not interest him he just will not pay attention. I know he is behind on his writing skills and a few other areas. He is also just a bit OCD:) The teacher thought he was precious and a sweetheart, but I could tell she was unsure on excepting him. I had alre

Look who found her toes.....         I love how excited she got when she was finally able to grab her little feet....     This has become her favorite pass time Isn't she just stunning! {notice big sister photo bombing}   This was the best picture I could get of them in their adorable matching outfits:)     We will shout for joy when you are victorious and will lift up our banners in the name of our God. May the LORD grant all your requests.   Psalm 20:5 

These kids LOVE their Daddy! And he adores them. It makes my heart so happy to see the love they have for one another. I don't think Jeff really realizes how much he is adored by them {and by me}. And he is totally crazy for them.     {Ollie was all hugs and kisses until he saw the camera.lol}   Sweet baby girl!     I can not even tell you how truly blessed I feel to be "Mommy" to these four beautiful little ones. There is not a day that goes by that I do not thank God for the gift of them. The LORD will send His faithful love by day; His song will be with me in the night. Psalm 42:8

A little behind... But do not want to loose these memories:) I love that Jeff tries to make it to all of Oliver's school parties. We only have three more of these before he goes onto JR. High. WoW! It is just going by to fast. Oliver's 3rd grad Valentine Day party Colt was more cranky then usual. That night he broke out in a fever. Poor kid!   Cory from across the street came with us...   While the girls stayed with Holly.     Colt came to me with this little house he built with Lego's. He told me every little detail. He put so much love and thought into it.   He was so proud!  And I have to say that it was the best Valentine Day gift I have ever received!      Storries first Valentine Day:)
