Jordans birthday visit to Texas

Jordan got to go see his family in Texas for his birthday over labor day weekend. I am so happy for him, he got to do lots of fun stuff down there. I know he loved every minute of being with his family. It sure is hard with our families so far apart. He left on Thursday night and got back on Monday night. We sure missed him LOTS but I know he had so much fun and it was worth every minute I missed him. I'm so happy he enjoyed himself and got to spend some time with family and friends!

Ready to go get daddy!

Yay!

We were so happy to see him!

Sick and tired...literally

I have officially been sick since August 14.... At first I had strep throat. Then about 2 weeks later I was feeling HORRIBLE and I went back to the doctor because I couldn't move my neck and I had a headache for 6 days straight. Well turns out I have mono. With mono your white blood cells are supposed to be low, mine were high, so on top of mono I also had a bacteria infection. I was on 1,000 mg of antibiotics and pain medicine. There's nothing you can do for mono except sleep (that's kind of hard with a 3 year old and a full time job) So I've been doing the best I can. I have only missed one day of work since I found out I had mono which is pretty dang amazing. I don't know how to explain mono. It is so horrible, I would much rather throw up for 4 or 5 days then have this crap. I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO tired 24/7. I remember there was one day I had to take Skye to the doctor at 5. I got off work, went home and told my mom. She had to drive me, I couldn't even stay awake to tell her where to go, I couldn't get out of the car to take Skye in, my mom had to, I stayed in the car and slept in the parking lot. Then I slept the whole way home, I got home went straight to bed and fell asleep instantly. I woke up for about 30 minutes and took a shower and went right back to sleep until I had to wake up for work the next day. In the mornings it is SO hard for me to get out of bed. Every single day I think to myself I'm just going to call in and stay home, I can't go to work, but everyday I force myself to get up and go. I am probably pushing myself just a little too hard but I don't know what else I can do. I feel horrible because I am missing out on life because literally all I want to do is sleep whenever I possibly can. I feel bad for my family because I have been a zombie lately and can barely get out of bed or off the couch. It will get better eventually. I've heard it lasts anywhere from 6 weeks to 4 months... 4 weeks and counting...

Snuggling, trying not to get sick :)

Update on Skye

Lately Skye has had quite the attitude! But she is as adorable as ever. She LOVES to wear dresses because she is a princess :) She actually went to dance class today!! Yay :) She got to do a ghost dance. She still sucks her thumb and loves blankey. She loves to play with my hair and grammies hair. She says we are Rapunzel. She doesn't know what she wants to be for Halloween yet. She has been quite the cuddle bug lately and I just love it so much!

It's her favorite time of the year!!!!

I feel like I'm looking in a mirror

Silly thing. She's a vampire

My Little Dancer

 Skye started dance last Wednesday. We decided to take her to Tuellers because that's where I went, Denese went and Ajia went (for a little while :) ) We went and took some pictures of her in her dance clothes. She was so excited. We took her to dance on Wednesday she got in her class, got her shoes on and was dancing in front of the mirror. Me and Neesee went to walk out and Skye started to freak out a little. Then we went in the hall and we could hear her just crying in there. They brought her out and we got her some candy and watched through the window and she went back in but she just wanted her mommy. I sat in there and watched her and she was doing ok. They put their tap shoes on and she loved it. She started dancing around it was so cute. I snuck out of the room and she did ok. She came to the window once or twice to make sure I was still watching her. It was a new scary place, so I can see why she was a little upset. This week will hopefully be better :) She will love dance, she just has to get used to it. I am so thankful Denese was there with me, it was so nice to have her there.

All her dance stuff :)

Skye's 3rd birthday!!

Skye's birthday party was so much fun this year! We did it the nightmare before christmas theme because she is still obsessed with Jack! We grilled burgers and had some yummy cake and ice cream. Skye got a lot of presents! She is one spoiled little girl. Her favorite present is her scooter her Grammie and Grandpa got her. Her Grandma Stacey and Grandpa Joe got her an awesome swing set! We just haven't finished putting it up yet. We got her movies, play doh and a bike! We are so happy to have so many people that loves us!

I honestly can not believe my little baby is 3 years old today. She is such an amazing person already. She has taught me the true meaning of life and of love. She is giving, loving, caring, sweet, polite, funny, so smart, VERY independent, silly, stubborn, determined, head strong, wild, crazy, happy, goofy and perfect. She is the most breathtakingly beautiful person I have ever seen. She amazes me every single day. I don't know what I did before she came into my life, she is my entire world. I love you more than words will ever be able to express my wittle Skye Brooklyn Robinson Thank you for making my life wonderful and fun everyday.

Her scooter & bike

Her amazing cake!!!

Skye's 3rd birthday pictures

This year she was a little better. She just wanted to run around and play. When we went to the river she got to play in the water and she was happy. She just has to have fun while we are taking her pictures. I absolutely love them :)
