Happy 10 months!

Wow 10 months!! Auntie Jess played the guitar and sang to our birdie boy on his birthday :)

Christmas morning

After some technical issues with uploading videos, I now present Robin on Christmas morning:

Updates: A Christmas Series

Just in time for Christmas, Robin has started to pull himself up AND crawl. All of the sudden he is so much more independent. We're not exactly baby-proofed in my parents' house, so we have to keep a closer eye on him :)

Over the next few days, we'll post videos and pictures from the week of Christmas so you can see the antics of our growing boy.




P.S. In other news, this past month Steve has started a new job and we we have found a cute little house to rent with a backyard big enough for a large garden. We felt like we'd be rushing into things if we tried to buy a house/property right now, so we will be contented testing out some of our ideas in the garden. Stay tuned for more updates!

Robin's Halloween Baptism

Ah, I must apologize again for being MIA around here. There is really no excuse other than the lack of routine we've had for the past several months. We are settling in here in Kentucky, closer to some of our loved ones and further from others. Robin is doing very well. He is an expert sitter and roller now, and is starting to show signs that he will crawl soon. He smiles and laughs and plays and makes everyone he sees smile too :)

Last weekend Robin was baptized at the Church that Steve and I were married. All of his grandparents and his three great-grandmothers were here to celebrate with us. And it was halloween to boot, so Robin wore 2 special outfits that day (and a Green Bay Packers jersey in between:). It was a fun and very special weekend.








Hope you had a happy halloween!

Yum!

Robin has been experimenting with solid foods lately and is starting to get the hang of eating from a spoon and drinking from a cup.



Today we are leaving for a 2+ week trip that will take us from Covington, KY to visit relatives in Kokomo, IN, then on to the northeast - hitting Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine on the way out - then Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and New Jersey on the way back. Check back here for pictures and updates along the way!

Love, Anna, Steve and Robin

Morning fun with Papa

Happy 5 Months Robin

Robin is 5 months old today. He shows us his excitement by squealing all day long :)
