Bleh-Blogging

I am not going to lie,.. I have ZERO motivation to blog these days,.. In all actuality I have CLOSE to zero motivation for anything. Not quite sure why, but that's the truth. I have a BILLION things I could blog about, but haven't. So,.. in a nut shell,..........

Thanksgiving was Tubular.

Yes,.. this is the only picture I have of Thanksgiving Day,.. us Mom's were too busy feeding babies to worry about picture taking.

Robbins Family Christmas Party is always Radical dOOd.

Bailey being a camel in the nativity,.. more irritated that I put a big fluffy animal around her neck,.. but I sure thought it as cute!

Hanging Out at Home with the Kiddos is AWESOME. (I have some funny Bailey stories for YOU!)

Speaking of funny stories,.. this little red outfit is a jammie dress that Peter's mom and Dad gave Bailey for Christmas,.. well,.. Bailey calls it her "Pitty Pincess dwess" and we take it off in the morning to get dressed and then it goes back on, over our normal clothes,.....................:D And Ariel, mini Ariel, and Cinderella go EVERYWHERE with us,.. cute,.. no,.. Annoying is more like it. {because if we lose one,.. it's the end of the world as we know it!(yes I was singing that part)}

Chloe is just as sweet as ever. We are getting more and more sleep these days, which makes for a happier baby AND mamma! :D YEA!!!!!!!

Umm,.. I think that's what I have been up to for the last 3 weeks,.... I know,.. I KNOW you have been DYING because I haven't given you a play by play of my every last adventure, and I'm pretty sure you will survive. So,.. I hope that I will have more motivation to blog a little more often, but honestly, I am going to attempt to put the Dr. Pepper down,......the drain and not my throat,...... which means MAJOR withdrawals at my house in the coming days,.. which also means you don't want me to blog,.. it will just be negative and mean spirited and junk,.. so seriously wish my husband and kids good luck, cause they are gonna need it!

So maybe I actually wrote that part ^ 2 days ago and was too lazy to upload pictures,.. and since then,.. we got our Christmas tree up and decorated and I am in L-O-V-E with my tree and all the trimmings,.. there are a few things that aren't quite finished, but it should be by the time Christmas rolls around. :D This is just how I operate people!

On another note,.......

This is Uncle Jason, mocking Chloe,.. but you see,.. Chloe has these fingers in her mouth probably %85 of the day,.. I think it's SUPER cute, and it is becoming a great thing in the middle of the night when she wakes up, because she is able to just go right back to sleep once she finds her fingers. But there are a few times a day when it's not so cute and really quite annoying like this for example,.....

So I have decided to quit trying to keep her fingers out of her mouth and just feed her via syringe,...... Whatever works right!?!?

Metal

In the last few weeks, I have had a lot of little things that make me think of Metal. You'll see.

I don't like having this Metal ring on my finger. Each and every time I have slipped it on my hand, it was for a reason, a reason I don't like. It ha

s meant(TO ME) that Peter is incapable of wearing it him self. Luckily, I have only worn it twice, and I sure hope it never ends up on my hand again.

About 2 weeks ago, Peter's leg(the one he broke) started really bother him, right where he had surgery. I FREAKED and immediately though he had a blood clot. (I'm a spaz) but the Doc said it was an infection,..... Like that's good or something?!?!?!?!?!?!? (better than a clot I guess) So we scheduled a surgery to have all the metal hardware taken out of his leg. It was a pretty quick procedure, but no wife likes to take their husbands wedding ring off and slip it onto their own hand, and kiss them good-bye. It freaked me out when we did this with his first surgery, and it freaked me out, once again. Not to mention, who knows what those nurses say and do!?!? JAY KAY!

Anyway,.. Peter did GREAT, coming out of anesthesia wasn't much fun. My husband would make a really crappy drug addict. They gave him some morphine right out of surgery and he quit breathing, and so they gave him Loratab(Mel, you can laugh at my spelling!) and even on that he was having a hard time keeping his O2 levels where they needed to be. So,.. at least I know that Peter isn't addicted to pain killers right!? He probably didn't get a good nights sleep that night cause I keep slapping his chest all night, waking him up and asking,.. "are you breathing!?!?" I would have been super annoyed. Sorry babe!

When they were sewing him up, they realized that stitches weren't really going to do the trick because of all the scar tissue from the first surgery, and so they stapled(metal) him up. yummy!

Don't you worry your little hearts people,.. we of course brought home all the metal that was in his leg.

WHAT? You really think I was going to leave the $22,000 worth of metal there for them to do whatever with!? Don't think so!!! So if any of you end up spiral compound fracturing your left leg,... I can get you a good deal on the hardware needed to fix you up real good! I think we would settle for $10 G's!? They were well taken care of,.. in almost perfect condition!? Let me know! ;)

A little worry-some

I went to the dentist today.

I have never been bothered by the dentist. I LOVE walking out of there and rubbing my tongue against my teeth and swishing air between my teeth, and knowing they are just so clean! It's such a happy feeling!!!

Well I walked INTO the office thinking,.. "DANG I am good,.. I am 23 and have never had a cavity."

I left with 5 cavities.

I forgot that I haven't had x-rays in like 5 years,.. between pregnancy and the fact that I didn't go to the dentist when I was in school. OOPS.

So I am lying there, on my back, SUPER sad that I had 5 cavities, thinking,.. "MAN I gotta lay off the DP",.. and the dentist leans over me to "take a look". I look up at him as he smiles at me and slowly moves his mask up over his mouth and nose, JUST IN TIME TO SEE,..

Should I be worried that the guy drilling holes in my teeth, and telling me to floss, has a big fat piece of parsley in his pearly whites!?

Sistas

I was busy making breakfast this morning, and Chloe started crying,.. I heard Bailey say,...

"Chloes crying,.. I coming Chloe, I save you"

I kept trugging along makin eggs, and Chloe started fussing a little while later, and so I decided it was time to rescue her. (I had totally forgotten that Bailey had already gone to rescue her) I walked into my room to find this:

And hear this from Bailey's mouth.

"We snugglin' Mommy,.. I LOVE her"

It's moments like this that make my destroyed bladder all worth it.

She really DOES love her baby sister,.. and I don't think I could be more happy about that fact.

Maybe my BABY is 4 months old,.. WHAT? I know everyone says this,.. and it's so true, but I just can't believe she is already 4 months old. I still feel like I had her 2 weeks ago.

But maybe,.. she wears 6-9 month clothes?

Maybe she started solids cause,.. she is obviously WASTING away.

Maybe I am enjoying that she still sleeps in our room because Bailey never did?

Maybe she is 95% in everything?

{Maybe,.... just maybe!}

On another note,.. maybe we have all had head colds and when I took the girls in for check-ups,.. and they both had double ear infections,..poor babies! Bailey hasn't said a WORD about her ears hurting, and I knew Chloe had an ear infection, but she is so incredibly happy and content, the only time she would cry about it was when I would lay her on her back, or on her side to nurse,.. poor baby.

Speaking of crappy health. Remember when Peter snapped his leg in a scooter accident 6 MONTHS ago????? Well all WAS well,.. walking great,.. all healed,... and then this week it started buggin him again,.. then it got all swollen and red, and tender, and literally hot to the touch. He went in to have the Dr. look at it and,... he has an infection. GAH! So they are counting out the possibility that the infection is just in his skin by giving him a round of antibiotics, and if it doesn't clear up then he will have to have surgery next week to take out all the metal plates, pins and screws that they put in. Sew him up, and start a 6 WEEK round of antibiotics. So we are hoping that we can clear it up without surgery, but the doctor didn't sound to optimistic about that happening,..and my bro-in-law that is a physical therapist didn't sound too optimistic about it happening either,..

We are just a little perplexed as to how an infection is JUST showing up,.. 6 months after the fact. Oh well,..

All in all,... I thank my Heavenly Father Daily for our health. These things are things that we will all get over, and we will move on with life.

p.s. who ever said that horrible think to Nie Nie at the grocery store,.. I am going to hunt you down and punch you in the face,..... multiple times. Watch your back foo!(yes I am violent)

I cried,.. a lot,.. for her.

Halloween 2009 was a HIT!

Oooh Goodness we had a fun Halloween!!

I have ALWAYS loved Halloween,.. especially last year,.. Bailey was old enough to trick-or-treat, but not old enough to eat all the candy,.. so I helped her with that.

But this year, she wanted to take care of her own candy. Dang it anyway!!

(Notice Bailey's posture,.. she is really saying,.. let's get this show on the road you crazy picture taking mom of mine.) And YES,.. Chloe's pinkie IS in her nose!

Yes,.. she is the cutest Tinkerbell on the planet!

Yes, her chub is out of control, and it took A LOT of effort to get that strap around AND under the chubby cheeks!

Thank you Jim for the lazy costume idea. pure awesomeness!



Our Trick-or-Treating Posse'.

So a few little stories,...

Notice who Bailey can't take her eyes off of,..? That would be SnowMan(White,.. but she gets confused)

I WAS going to dress up as Glinda

(without the 'A' because I am selfless like that)

{it's Wicked humor}

and so I tried on my wedding dress and was contemplating spray painting pink,.. but everyone told me I couldn't but,..................................

I DO still fit in my dress!!

{It's actually not THAT exciting,.. I was pregnant when I got married,.. JUST KIDDING,.. Bailey's birthday is almost on our 1 year anniversary! but I was chunky,.. just like I still am!}

ANYWAY,.. So I put it on on Saturday thinking I might wear it, and when Bailey saw me,.. her eyes got all big, and her jaw dropped and she looked at me and said,..

"mommy, you a Pin-cess?,.. you gettin ready, go to ball?"

"Bailey come?"

I know,.. so dang cute!

So for Bailey's hair, I just pulled it up(mega hairspray needed) into a messy bun, and so that is called "Tinkerbell Hair" at our house,.. well I just pulled my hair back into a messy bun this morning, and Bailey keeps calling me Tinkerbell instead of Mommy. I'll take it!

p.s. I am realizing why my mom hated Halloween, and why our candy always disappeared like 3 days after Halloween,..

THE WRAPPERS ARE OUT OF CONTROL,.. and now that I have taken the candy away, the Sugar with drawl is driving me nuts!! Peter won't stop crying! ;) JAY KAY!
