The Robnett Zoo

These pictures are just to funny not to share...       Lilly had her first encounter with a lemon. She actually really loved it and the faces she made  is just priceless... She had all the tables around us cracking up !!

{August 8th 2014} Look who is able to pull herself up!!!       I just happened to walk in the room when Storrie was pulling herself up. She was so proud of herself!!   .... and aren't her two little teeth the sweetest thing that you have ever seen.

As usual I am late posting this {Storrie turned 8 months on July 19th} 8 months!!! So unreal to think that this time last year we did not know she even excisted. And now.. Here we are.. Just four months until her 1st birthday. I am actually already planning her party. Jeff and I say to one another almost daily "How did we get so lucky? Just look at her. She is just perfect!!" She is just more majical everyday, and I would like to tell you how much more wonderful she is today then yesterday, but it would be a book. So here's just a smidge of your magic....   Storrie, my love...   If you only knew how happy you make us. From chubby thighs to sweet, dimpled girls grin you give me every morning. You are so smart, funny and loving. These last 8 months have been heaven. Thank you for making my world brighter... Your Mommy

Colt is getting to an age where he isn't by my side constantly like he used to be. He wants to run and play with the older children. It's exciting to see him make friends and do things on his own, but it's also so sad and scary to let go of him a little bit.  Letting go of him a little bit means letting him get his heart hurt a little bit. His heart is pure innocence still, unsuspecting and trusting. He doesn't understand why an older child hurts him, nor does he mind too much; he still wants to be friends.  As a mother, I know this is just the first of many situations where I'm going to have my heart broken from seeing someone be mean to my baby. The baby I held in my arms and rocked to sleep so many times. The baby I spent 17 years praying for. The baby whose curls I played with while feeding. The baby whose feet I kissed and fingers I nibbled on.  I have to watch the world not treat my baby as kindly as I would wish. And that's really hard....

    I just love our silly little family traditions that involve Stanton. It is a great way for the littles to learn about their Daddy, his family and his childhood.         Always LOVE when Ethan gets to spend the night. LOVE this boy. He is such a sweetheart!     This is the way we roll...lol... This RV is hardly used for travel, but makes a great in town vehicle:) We keep going back and fourth about selling it...     The best part about Ol' Soreheads Reunion is we get to see Nancy and Gary.. aka Nana and Big Daddy. They always make a trip back to attend.When Lils saw her Nana she was so excited and broke out in a full run right into her arms.     This girl LOVES Big Daddy!!! She did not leave his side almost the whole time we were at the parade. The parade is always short and sweet.. we were actually saying how sad it is that it seems to be getting smal...

    This little girl is just pure sunshine!
