Pucker Up Baby!

After keeping people from doing this to our child I finally gave in. This is is April's first taste of a lemon. We were at our favorite Mexican restaurant, Cancun Cafe.

April learning to walk

We went to Hull Park today with Ms Bailey and her crew! April had a blast... well we both did.

Busy past few days..

Earlier today April took her first steps with out assistance! I was so excited I called Jon at work. LOL She took 8 steps and then fell on her bum. But, MAN was she proud of herself!

Last Sunday we went to Waycross for a visit. April got to go on her first four-wheeler ride with her Aunt Tammy.

I have a video, but it wouldn't upload. In the picture withe April is her Aunt Tammy and her cousins Chance and Faith.She also got to meet several family members for the first time. We had fun seeing everyone.

Sorry I didn't get more pictures, I was busy visiting.

Our "Dancing Queen"

This was taken this morning. I hope you can see it.. The sun wasn't all the way up. LOL

April is hitting her new Zebra (that we got from a very nice lady on FreeCycle.com) so it makes music. Then dancing and laughing. If you watch close you can also see her do her newest trick... Letting go of things and standing on her own.

Trip to ATL

We went to Atlanta this week for a wedding of a very good friend. We are very excited for him and his new bride!!! We have plenty to share. I will try to get it all on here. LOL

Yes! That is my wonderful husband, JON ROBBINS, pretty in pink! Jon was a groomsman and looked very hansom in his tux. Pink or No Pink!

First Dance? There may not be any music playing, but that has never stopped April for dancing to the soundtrack in her head before. :)

April hung out with GrandMa for a little while and this is how I found her. LOL Not that GrandMa was complaining.

This is just for fun!!! Chad loves his Maw Maw and I can see why!!!

Couple of cute moments.

Daddy, Can I have a pony?

(Our friend Amanda got April this Webkins pony. She loves this thing! It may only be a matter of time before we have to explain that she can't have a pony in an apartment. )

April loves her puppies and kitties so much, she even tries to share her toys with them. The ball of fluff is Max.

Adventure in Soft Play

We went to the Soft Play with Ms Bailey and her crew today and April had a blast! Today she decided that she was a big girl and wanted to go on adventure. This was her second attempt. (As long as I can see her and she is safe.. I let her explore.)

After that we went to story time only to find out that it had been canceled. Ms Casandra was nice enough to do a short story time for us though. It was all about BUGS!

I should explain now...

I should get this out in the open now and explain..
Bot of April's doctors recommended getting her ears pierced while she is a baby. I question the doctors and asked many other moms why they had it done. They all said the same thing. They will heal faster and since mom is the one taking care of them, you know that they are being cared for properly. Jon and I discussed it and decide to get them pierced.
Now having said that... Jon was is so right! I think it may have been harder on me than it was on her. I nearly had a panic attack while I was sittitng in the chair with her. LOL and she may have cried a minute, if that! Honestly, I still question getting it done before she was old enough to ask to have it done. (It seemed to be a right of passage in our family.) But most of the time, I'm glad we got it done.
So yes, if you blow up the pictures with her sippy cup, you will indeed see an earring in her perfect little ears.

Have "Sippy" Will Travel

Our little princess is drinking from a sippy cup! It may not seem like much to some of you.. but to me it means a lot! YAY!!!!!

Oh NO Where's April?

At the Pool

Since our sweet little girl didn't sleep much last night, I thought it would be a good idea to get her out of the house and into the pool this morning. I got fussed at for not getting pictures the last time we went to the pool so here are pictures and video.

Edit- If you blow up a couple of these pictures you can see her first two teeth on the bottom. We should have two more any day now. All I have to say is God Bless the makers of Motrin and Hyland's Teething Tablets

These pictures were taken yesterday. I just thought they were cute.

OK, well I finally got around to doing some of the video. I wanted to delete the bad ones and at least get some good shots in. So, this is at least my drive at # 7. I went a little left, but still stayed out of the trees.

Next one is from #2 an ya know I actually do not have bad form on it

Jon @ Augusta National

Jon asked me to post a few pictures. He hasn't had time just yet, but I'm sure he will share some of his favorite videos and pictures soon.

Jon had a very good time! He was walking on air when he got home.

This is Jon's group that he played with.

Updates...

Well, Today is Daddy's Big Day! Yes, boys and girls.. Jon Robbins is currently playing golf at Augusta National Golf Club!!! I'm sure that there will be several pictures and videos posted after he gets home tonight. He took all the cameras!!
I did find some pictures from a couple of days ago that I could share though.

Massey Looking oh so UNIMPRESSED with April chasing her around the room. As you can see in the back ground Max could care less! I really think that he was meant to be a part of our family, much to Massey dismay at times. We told her over and over to leave Jackson alone. He was old and sick and she still insisted on pouncing on him... So as far as we are concerned ... Turn about is fair play. She gets it form a Baby and a Kitten!! I often humor myself by thinking of Jackson snickering at her when she is getting hacked off at Max or April. LOL Or one of he dogs for that matter.


April has a few "big girl" toys! I found a great buy on CraigsList.org! This cute little tent and she loves it!! So do the cats, but that's a story for another day. She looks a little... ummm... silly in this picture. LOL I am not a professional photographer PEOPLE!


Just so you know... you can leave messages and read ones left by other friends and family. You can also left click on the pictures and it will bring up a much bigger version. Just a thought... I had talked to several people who didn't know and were squinting to try to make out pictures. LOL

BIG hugs from The Robbins Zoo!!!

Long Week

We have had a pretty busy week...

Jon took a few days off from Nike to caddie at Augusta National and learned late yesterday that he will get to play the course on May 25th. He is VERY excited!

April and I went to Augusta for a couple of days to see Daddy and visit with some of my old friends. We had such a nice tiem visiting with everybody!

The puppies went to Augusta with us! They got to sleep over at National Hill Animal Hospital. The cats stayed here and lounged around with no baby to chase them and no dogs to trample them. :)

MAX has decided that he needs to help me organize!! I bought some small boxes at the Dollar Tree and I guess I'm not filling them fast enough!
