The Robnett Zoo

On Tuesday November 10th just a few weeks before Storrie's 1st birthday     I was sitting  in the living room with my sweet friends Holy and Katie, while our kids played. Storrie was crawling around and playing. She has been pulling herself up for a while, so when she did it again I did not think twice. But then... She took a step. Then another And then another... My sweet baby girl is walking! It was so much fun to share that moment with such dear friends. And thankfully Holly got a video of it as I took pictures. I just can not believe how fast my littlest princess is growing,

Ok..,. I am just a little behind on Blogging (like three months behind) Between the kids, all the activities and my (not so) small home business.. I just have not had any time. I am hoping to catch up over Christmas break:)         If you know me.. You know one of my favorite things in the world is dressing my littles {specially the girls} It actually kills me Oliver has to wear a uniform..lol. I love this time of year because there is just so many seasonal clothes to chose from. With October comes Halloween themed clothing. I thought it would be fun to do a post at the end of the month with the littles in all their cuteness!!   {the girls shirts say "I have Daddy Under My Spell".. Oh how true is this:)!!} O           And my cute little man...  I feel awful about not having pics of Oliver.. But he has to wear uniforms:( And he is getting to th...

{October 19th} How can my littlest princess be 11 months old?? How is it possible that in just one month she will be one year old?? Where has the last eleven months gone?? PLEASE someone tell me how to slow down time!!   This little girl is getting harder and harder to photograph!! I took a million photos and these are as good as I could get! What your up too... *You are not a fan of your baby food any more, but you are loving "real" food. Your favorites are bananas, cheese, pasta, frozen peas and sweet potatoes. *You are getting four {yes FOUR} new teeth. Theo more on top and twom more on bottom for a grand total of twelve sweet little choppers:) You are seriously the best baby! You hardly fuss at all. *You REALLY adore your Daddy. "Da-Da" is your favorite word and you get so excited anytime you see him. *You love to clap. Every time we say "YAY baby" you clap then raise your hands. *You also live to mimic sounds we make....

I have read a few different posts similar to this that have inspired me to write my own list of 'life lessons'. Lessons that I hope my daughter will learn, little bits of wisdom that I hope she will take with her and some words that may serve to carry her through hard times. Life is so short and being a nurse I know that it can be taken away far to early. No person, no family, is immune to illness or heartbreak and as much as I pray to live long enough to model and teach her all of these lessons, I know I'm not immune and life is uncertain. It's taken me quite some time to write this list, keeping a journal at my bedside and in my purse to jot down what I feel are some of the most important lessons life has taught me in my twenty-some years.  This post is dedicated to my beautiful daughters... Sara, Lilly and Storrie...                     First and foremost, you are so very loved and always wil...

I have professional pictures made of my littles ALL. THE. TIME! Seriously.. At least ten times a year. And I cherish them. But some of my very most favorite pictures are the ones that will never make it into a frame.    I just adore the goofy, silly school pictures! I still can not believe that my little boy just took his 4th grade school picture! A little silly but VERY handsome!! I see so much of his daddy in that sweet face!! I wish I could freeze time and keep him this age for forever.         Oliver HATES this picture... He says he has "crazy eyes"..             I did not realize how much these silly pictures would mean to me until Sara was almost grown and I looked back on all of hers. They made me laugh. They made me cry. They caught who she was at the time. Some goofy, some were great. But they were all her! They show who she was at that time in her life. Just as this picture is all...

This years Air Show was THE.BEST.EVER!! Why you ask??? Easy.... Because of this little boy right here.... My precious boy was mesmerized. He was so excited. It made my heart so happy to see this side of him come out. He is such a boy.. ALL boy. He has always loved trucks, trains and motorcycles... But now he has a love for planes.   Cory was almost as excited as Colt.. I think Oliver was a bit board!!      My prissy little girl had a blast playing in the dirt:)   It was a great day.. A bit on the cold side but tons of fun. We really were glad Sami, Cory and Maddie got to come with us. We really missed Brenna.. Just another family moment that she missed out on. But no matter what, Brenna is always in our heart and thoughts. 

23 Years ago on October 7th, I became a mom to this beautiful young lady!!               My precious Sara... I can not believe that is has been 23 years since they first placed you in my arms. At that moment I learned what true love was.   Watching you as a little girl...Watching you grow... Has been one of the greatest blessings of my life. You have always been such a source of pride and joy to me. You were the most perfect, beautiful baby I had ever seen. And now.. You are the most beautiful, perfect young woman I have ever seen. You will never know how much I love you.. Cherish you!! I look at your life and I am amazed at your strength.   As a mother, all I have ever wanted was to keep you safe and protected. For you to have the happiest of happy childhoods. Sadly there was so much I could not protect your from. Your childhood was not what I wished for you. You have had to face so much and at such a v...

      Here is a sneak peek of the first add for Jeff's M.I.S.D School board campaign.   I just love how this captures the fun side of his personality and shows who he really is with Storrie. He loves nothing more then to make her laugh.. which she does every time he walks in the room. This girl LOVES her Daddy!!!   I can hardly wait to see the rest of the adds!!

The school day is always started with the children saying The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag The children take turns holding the flag then they get to be the "leader". Yesterday was Lilly's turn. She was so excited until she was up there, then she got a bit shy.  But she did a GREAT job!!      I sent these pictures to her Daddy and he text back "She is so beautiful. I am crying".  I just always want her to know how proud her Daddy is of her:)     I just love the way Lils is looking at Coltie in this picture.
