Family Fun

The end of June marked an awesome event: a visit from our Kansas cousins and aunts Megan and Tara! It was a brief visit over only a few days, but it was great to see everyone and catch up (or rather, as much as adults can catch up when kids are around :D).

Luke's First Movie!

Just a quick post here about a special first of Luke's: on Saturday, he saw his first movie in a theater, Monsters University! An awesome mommy from Luke's "little school" (BWF) coordinated a group of us to see the movie with our kiddos. Luke's cousin Sophie was in town and was sweet enough to join us. (I'm not sure she totally knew what she was in for... but she joined us nonetheless!)

June 18 - That Day I Was Pinterest Mom

I've been doing this mothering gig for almost five years now, and in that time, I've learned the following (NOT a comprehensive list):

Kate's Second Month

As I write this, Kate is almost eleven weeks old. She was technically two months old on June 3, and, in a perfect world, I would have written this much closer to then. 

Why does it matter so much, you ask? 

Full-of-Play May

Miss Kate pretty much dominated the month of April at the Robertses' house. The first couple of weeks of Kate's life were very hard on Luke. His little sister really razzed his berries! Over time, he came to tolerate her (you could all but see him thinking, Well heck, I guess she isn't going anywhere), but if we're being honest, I think he was just SICK AND TIRED of being stuck at home. Jeremy, once he got better after his illness, was awesome about taking Luke to do things so he wouldn't get cabin fever. Once April wrapped up, though, I was closer to 100%, too, and we tried our best to have lots of family fun!
