Movie/Game Night

On Mondays, Jason has work and than school at night, normally John has soccer skills practice which is a nice break in the day. Well, today soccer skills was canceled which honestly was fine with me since another freeze blew in over night. Texas weather is just flat out crazy. Sunday we were having fun in the backyard, flying kits, cooking out, all in our shorts. Today, not so much. So…..we had a fun day of game playing and movie watching.

21 Week Appointment Baby #3

Today, I went in for my 21 week appointment. Sweet baby girl has been kicking away these last couple of weeks, I love it! Checked on her size today and she is right on target, heartbeat is in the 150's. My next appointment will be in four long weeks. Until than, now that we know we are having a girl we get to do the fun stuff like SHOP and DECORATE her nursery!!!!

Robin Family, Table For FIVE!

I first started my online blogging a little over five years ago with my first post announcing our pregnancy with our first child, John Howard! Blogging was a great way to keep record of all the milestones in life and at the same time share those milestones with friends and family. Once our second child was born, Taylor Ann, life got busy. As John and Taylor reached toddlerhood my blogging slowed down, way down, in fact it stopped.

My last post was about John turning 4! Now he is 5 and so so much has happened in that year. We went on our first family beach vacation to Clearwater Beach, Fl followed by another trip to Florida in November to experience Disney. I will have to catch up on so much and I promise I will try.

So... how do you start a blog up again? When is a good time?

The Robin Family is growing and what better way to start our family blog back up again than with another pregnancy announcement!?! We are expecting baby number three in August and we are THRILLED! Each of my pregnancies have been so different and this one is no exception.

We found out we were pregnant in December before Christmas, so yes that means I am pretty far along now, 20 weeks and 1 day along. This pregnancy has been the hardest hands down. Morning sickness this time started at 5 weeks 6 days, the day right before Christmas and lasted until I was 13 weeks along. It was 24/7 and nothing helped. Jason was and still is my rock as always. He took over mom roll and did everything for almost two months. All the cleaning, cooking, shopping, laundry, you name it he was doing it.

So where are we now?

Today, we had our 20 week ultrasound and we got to find out if we would have a girl or a boy. Both of the kids wanted a girl. Jason and I were happy with either since we already have one of each. We were all thrilled when the technician announced GIRL! I am beyond thrilled. I can finally start buying all those cute girly things I see. I am sure I will go a little crazy with newborn girl photography props ;)

Here we are, a new chapter, a new milestone, a new adventure as a family of 5!
