Baby Love

Who doesn't love a brand new baby? Okay maybe if that baby is crying and pooping all the time it's not your favorite thing to deal with - but this baby... my brand new nephew was the quietest, best baby of the day (and there were some noisy kids in church in yesterday!!!) :P

Carin's challenge this month is to capture love and as you can see, there were many who held Mckay or who looked on in adoration. (and many didn't get a chance to hold him because of the baby hogs!!! just kidding)

Welcome to the world baby Mckay. You are surrounded by lots of love already!!!

Robin's Rules

An old friend of mine called into question why the name robinsrules in my html (actually he called me a geek). I suppose I should explain. He read it as Robin rules versus Robin's rules and I merely omitted the apostrophe when creating the html. There are certain rules that make me happy like ...

1. keep my husband close by because he makes me laugh even when I don't feel like it, ( and if he can't - call my sisters)

2. pay attention to nature because it helps me be peaceful,

3. always remember to pray and be grateful because then I'm nicer to my kids (and they'll thank me for it!)

4. take lots of pictures of my boys because when I look at their pictures I more easily forgive them when they break the t.v., take pizza from the fridge in the middle of the night, punch or bite each other, or hide chocolate bars and other candy under the couches to eat later - true stories - Serenity now.
