Hanging out with the Robertsons

We hung out with my bestie, Mindy, and her family (my 2nd family) this past weekend. We had such a great time catching up. Torbyn, Beau, Luke, and Savannah all adore Zoee and they had a great time dancing and playing together.

Zoee is watching Luke to see if she can pick up on some of his dance moves.

And she caught on pretty quick. She loves to dance!

Is she going to be a singer like me?? Only time will tell!

I love-love-love her crazy hair. She was pooped after dancing. Had to take a break and grab a swig of milk.

She was excited getting to play with the electronics..LOL

Look-a-likes!

It's so crazy how much she looks like me now...I still see a lot of Mike in her..but her smile is just like mine.

Old Photos---Found!

I was looking at Mom's cell phone the other day and came across the old photos of Zoee that I haven't seen before. I thought I would share so we all could reminisce from the past year.

Our precious baby...this is the only way Zoee would sleep when she was this little..all swaddled up. For months and months and months.

Our cutie pie used to love to go out places and we would show her off.

I love this pic....so sweet!

So serious about her Bubble blowin' ." It was her hobby at the time...She looks just like Mike..so adorable!

Christmas time.. Time to hide the ornaments.

16 Months Old and Oh so much fun!

Zoee has been 16 months for two weeks now and she has been quite the lil' "DIVA".
She is starting to use the word "No" quite often and even gives dirty looks now..ha ha! She has more attitude (good and bad), more testy, but yet she can make you laugh when you scold her by the expressions that she makes. She's very clever and persuasive already and she is quite the dare devil. She loves to stand up on everything and tests her limits daily. She is wanting to help out around the house. She likes to grab the broom and sweep and plays with the vaccum a lot. She is saying a ton more words and sounds out animal sounds. We have started potty training her because I've noticed her squatting when she is about to do a No. 2. in her diaper anywhere she's at. So we have put her on the potty quite a few times and she's gone twice in the potty. It's so funny cause I have a "Pee Pee in the Potty Dance" that we do..and she gets a little special treat. She also is in Pull-ups now for the beginning process while she learns to pull up and down her pants..and then we will move on to "BIG GIRL" panties..ha ha! She loves loves loves to play in the water, whether it be in the tub or in her pool. Loves to be outdoors period..as long as it's not too hot outside. We are going to take her to the duck pond pretty soon (pics to follow). She is still average for her age..getting a little bigger..but not much. The doctor says she is really tall though that's what makes her look so skinny. She does eat quite a bit....when she wants to eat..she really really eats. She still loves her veggies and fruits. Her favorite right now is the gummy fruit snacks. We are really enjoying these days because we are having a lot of fun.

Hanging out with Grammy at Golden Corral.

Reading with Grumps...He loves to pester her...and I guess since we have seen a lot more of them this summer she is getting really close to him and Grammy.

We were at the orthopedic place waiting to get in and she is just itching to get into something. When you see this face folks...beware...it's a comin'!

Finally no more bottle at night. We are finally rid of bottles as of July 10th.

I just love that I can put her hair into pigtails.

This is her "I'm not too enthused, Mom!" look..HA HA!!

She was showing Ethan how to bounce in the bouncer..showing him the toys on it that she used to play with. Boy, are they going to be a handful together when he gets really mobile..LOL

Summer Lovin' Is Happening So Fast!

Summer is just breezing right by us. It will be Christmas again before we know it. The days have been hot here and we have been taking full advantage of it.


Strapping Zoee in for Swing time


We finally got a swimming pool..I've been wanting one for forever now. Mike Sr. is helping set it up..and introduced Zoee to the water.

She loves it!

More Swing time..you almost can't get her out of this thing without her throwing a fit to get back in.

Getting ready for bed...as you can see our house is a wreck at the end of the day....She's settling in with a good book.

Family Portraits

We went and took family portraits for the first time in years last Sunday. As you can tell..this picture has not been photoshopped because it looks like we are standing in front of a white shower curtain. I laughed pretty hard when I saw this. She was trying to get us all into the picture I guess..HA HA! Pretty funny picture, too..Mike is "BIG CHEESIN", Grammy is looking at Ethan pinching her, and Zoee looks so enthused to be taking a family picture..LOL It's too hilarious.

Look this precious face and smile

Aren't they so precious together

I especially love his hair

So sweet. Grumps says it looks like she is looking up to heaven.
