Bath Time Beauty-4 1/2 month Update

Presley at 4 1/2 months. So in love with this little munchkin!
She is quite the little babbler, she has the cutest giggle I think I've ever heard, and she is a little inch worm during tummy time! We may have a mover on our hands!
She already thinks she is a big kid and wants you to help her stand all the time! She is very curious and loves to see and observe all of her surroundings.
Her nicknames are Pretzels (given to her by her uncles),Presley Kins/Kinners (from her daddy), Pres, Princess Presh (from G-ma Robbins),Lee Lee and Peanut. I know, a lot of nicknames haha but those are what she is commonly called. She may grow up very confused! :)
She also makes a lot of noises when she sleeps which are so funny! I think she will be a sleep talker (she gets that from her mother).
She also has several different cries to help you know exactly what she wants or how she is feeling! Ex: tired cry, hungry, mad/upset, fake cry, puppy dog attention whine, scared, etc. Thankfully I am an expert in Presley's cry language, it makes things get resolved a lot faster haha.
She keeps us busy and we love every second!
Last night we put up the Christmas tree (so it would be all ready for when we got home from Vegas from Thanksgiving) and listened to Christmas music and had hot cocoa for FHE and she loved it! She loves when we sing and dance with her :) she thinks it's a riot :)
Presley girl we love you and all the happiness that you bring to our lives!! You are such a good baby and so happy and smiley! You are our everything!

Fabulous People aka the Stangers

Tosh and Tyler have been fabulous and so much fun! Tonight we went to Town Square Mall and played and had dinner together. It has been so great to spend some time with them. I sure do wish they lived in Utah still, but it has been so fun to play with them here in Vegas too. Oh how I love them! Thanks guys! You truly are the best! This trip wouldn't have been near as fun without you!

Vegas

Joel has a business conference in Vegas this week so Presley and I decided to tag along! So far it has been a blast! It has been so fun seeing Tosha and Tyler and the boys! Tosh and I went shopping with the kiddo's yesterday and the first day we got here they came to our hotel with takeout and we had a little party and just chilled out. Last night Joel, Presley, and I hit up the strip and went to see all the shops and fountains! It was lots of fun and Presley loved all the lights. We got carried away and didn't pay attention to the time and soon realized we were starving and it was 11:25pm! We hurried our way over to Cesar's Palace and ran over to the Cheesecake Factory and they said they were closing in 1 minute!! It was our lucky day!! So instead of being rude and having them seat us at a table we just ordered our food to go. We found a comfy couch and a little table and had ourselves a little picnic! It was great! After dinner it was very late and we were exhausted. Baby girl was passed out and all snuggled up in her car seat and stroller and we caught a taxi back to the hotel. We ended up getting back around 1:30 am ish haha. It truly is the city that never sleeps because I think we are the ones that turned in early compared to the crowds of people that were still out! But our poor child is used to a bedtime of 9:30. She is totally going to be off her schedule when we get home! Dang it all. But it has been a fun little adventure and get away! Thanks honey for letting us come along! It's been a blast! :)

Happy Halloween!

Hope everyone has a wonderful Halloween! Xoxo-The Robbins

Chantell is the Best!

My precious wife is the best!  While I'm sitting at work around 4:00 I get a message from Chantell asking when I will be home.  This is not necessarily out of the ordinary so I don't think much of it.  However, it does give me the proper motivation to stop what I'm working on and head home, since I had put in eight hours by then.

When I arrive home, to my surprise, I find these notes on the door!

Isn't she the best!  I still don't even know what I did to be a recipient of 'Husband Appreciation Day'.  Anyways, I walked through the door to find that the house smelled like freshly cooked (or I should appropriately say slowly crock pot cooked) chicken chili! (Not pictured but delicious!)  Perfect for a brisk Fall day!
Once my mind cleared of how good it smelled I noticed an entire new wardrobe of Fall clothes layed out on the couch.  (I understand that to some of you women reading this it might not be a 'full wardrobe' but it is to me :))  Thanks to Chanty and her fashion skills I don't look like a hood rat!  Thanks babe!

I just thought I might share with the world that Chantell is wonderful!  I love her so much!  And I am so lucky to be married to her.  She takes such good care of Presley and me and we are lucky to be her family! I am grateful for you Chantell! I love you!

Monkey Business

So Pres and I decided that it would be fun to try on her Halloween costume and make sure it fit! So here she is just loving life in her monkey suit :)
