It was a big birthday for Robert this year, the big 3-5! We have a lot to be thankful for in this man. I am so grateful for his love, patience, and kindness.
Some last Sunday shots as a 34-year old...
This girl adores him as much as I do.
Just keeping it real...oh, the outtakes of life, ha.
One night I heard a howling as I finished getting Maddie's things ready for school...only to find this. She is one lucky girl -- and she has him wrapped around her little finger.
Birthday morning treats.
Maddie picked out her own card for Daddy.
We then went looking for a gift. He has wanted an office chair forever. But, we left empty handed, he decided to wait and save up some gift cards to spend on a gun safe.
Well, I should not say "we" left empty handed.
I found a few things I could not pass on given the 50% off sale?!
This little picture is my favorite.
Out for a birthday steak dinner.
Sunday shots...with a 35 year old Daddy. Is that some gray hair I see?!
This girl doesn't seem to care.
We then celebrated again with the whole family. Kaimi made Robert's favorite, buttermilk pie!
It worked out perfectly, they had school closed Friday, so Kaimi met Robert and kept Maddie for the day we then met them on Saturday to spend the day with everyone...and Robert and I got a date night to watch the new Borne movie.
He now has some good help with so many candles.
Christie came over to watch Maddie one day when Robert was out of town...they made special cookies for Daddy!
Whew, what a celebration, but this guy deserves more than just one day!
Back to life in general.
Crazy hair day at school.
Clearly this girl gets her ability, or lack thereof, of making "crazy faces" from her mama.
Ha, these are just plain scary...or funny how both of us seem to look about as awkward.
School Days of summer 2016.
August 22, 2016 maddie moved up from Ms. Armstrong's class to Ms. Green's class at Primrose. She was very excited to be moved up to a big girl class (Pre-School 1). Here she is the night before, nails painted, check, hair washed, check, Daddy feeding you mm's because you cannot use your hands, CHECK!
First Day of School for the new year!
Our attempt at a "1"!
My how time flies.
But I guess Mama still likes eyelet!
Oh, this kiddo of mine. I wake in the 4 o'clock hour to get work done. However, recently, it has become harder and harder to beat her up. On this particular morning she was up about as early as us, and I needed to dictate. Here was my solution...
To which Nana responded, poor baby was by herself in the office?! Ha.
I was off to the side working as our a/c went out and this was a lot cooler part of the house. I put headphones on her because she kept getting irritated at me that I was speaking and she could not hear! "Poor baby"?! I don't think so!
About as wild as parties get our house.
Buckled up and out! Waiting on my little one to wake as I type. Have a good weekend!
