Lately....

Life has become so busy since going back to work and I am loving it!  I feel like I have become a better mama and wife.  I have been better at shutting my work off after hours and early mornings.  I don't stress about Maija's sleep habits as much.  I am enjoying spending time with my husband.  Life is good.



My mama made this adorable sailboat sweater! 

We had a good time last weekend in Peoria with my sister.  Abby and Maija finally have begun acknowledging each other, we had to watch them closely... they seemed to want to attack each others faces.  Those silly girls.  It is so interesting to see how different their personalities are already.  I just love them both so much.

Little owl babies.

Today we went out on errands, to the park and out to dinner- with Maija in a duck costume.  She is so delicious in it, we couldn't resist.  I mean, those tights!  I die.

We are getting into the groove of this transition back to work.  Unfortunately, it sounds like there will be a little more travel then I had initally thought so we will have to work that out with the family.  I am in WI this week, OH and MI next week and Chicago the week after that! 

We had a nice little family weekend.  We spent out Saturday at the apple orchard- which had a lot of pumpkins instead of apples!  But we got some great shots and it is run by homeschoolers and on a real farm so it was FREE!  Took us about 45 minutes to get there, well worth it and will be a tradition in the Robinson Family!

Krista and Adam ran their first marathon this last weekend!  It was so chilly but they did great and finished- very emotional.  So very proud of them!

The temps have definitely taken a dive, for our evening run this week we had to get mini bear bundled up!  Good thing I picked up this cuddlely outfit from Old Navy!

31 weeks.

Maija and I had a wonderful last week of a stay at home mama.  We ran a lot of errands.  We built forts for her to crawl through.We cuddled.  In fact I held her in my arms more often than not when it came to nap times.  I wanted to take it all in.  I am having a lot of mixed emotions about being back at work but it has been a slow transition as I am working from my parents house so I still get to see Maija a lot.  Plus, I don't have my work phone or computer yet so there is limited things I can do.  Enough about that, it was a good week.

We spent the weekend up at the cabin again.  My dad and Ryan took in the boats, dock and lift so I guess summer is officially over.  It was nice and warm though so we got out on the boat and on the jetski too!

I am loving the fall colors though and the relaxation it brings!  We just have to bundle mini bear up a lot more!

 

And you know fall means costumers- so Maija had to try a few of her's on :]
