This little pup loves to play in the front yard and eat all the icicles that she can find. Then when she drops them in the snow, she head plants her face into the snow until she finds it again. She's the cutest.

Indy loves Christmas! She got so many treats and toys from Santa, Danny and I, My Mom and Danny's Mom! What a spoiled little pup! She was so preoccupied with her bully stick that she let us stick the kitties on her to snuggle!

My little sidekick was such a good pup today. She just cuddled me and let me sleep all day. She could tell I wasn't feeling great, but at least I was on the mend! I was starving all day, but didn't want to over do it, so I had lots of soup!

I woke up with insane heartburn at 3:30 this morning, I was able to sit up and race to the toilet. From then until 9 that morning I puked 8 times. There was a stomach bug plowing through the Robbins side. We were supposed to see Star Wars that afternoon, but I wasn't going anywhere. Danny checked his phone, and his mom was in the same boat too. ha. So Kenny and Tommy got to go with Danny and take our tickets. I had a baby dr appointment today and luckily Dr. Larsen said that as long as I could keep liquid down for 24 hours, I wouldn't need an IV. I slept all day, and took sips of water and gatorade every so often. At the end of the day, I was able to keep down some broth and a few noodles. This was seriously one of the worst stomach bugs I have ever had. I felt on the brink of puking all day, even when I didn't have to. It was terrible!

I'm pretty pleased with the icicle display our house puts on. These things are insane!

We woke up to a huge snow storm. Like so big that it took Danny's 15-20 minute commute to work and turned it into a two hour commute. Luckily It only took me over an hour to get home since most people were off the roads. By the end of the day we had close to three feet of snow in our yard. Indy loved it! The Bernese in her came out and she was rolling in it, eating it and running as fast as she could in circles. She loved it when I threw snowballs up in the air. She'd try and catch them, but if she missed she'd stick her head in the snow looking for it! I tried to make her a snowman, but every time I got one started, She'd eat it. haha. She also loves to eat all the icicles that she can reach. I had one tired pup today!

Gingerbread houses! This years' batch held up way better than last years! And by "better" I mean that just the fact that we were able to put a wall up without it crumbling was a huge success!

Ugly sweater day! Mak, Ju, Hailey and I all made ugly sweaters! We've decided to make this a every 3 or 4 year thing. ha. It takes forever!

We finished decorating our tree today! It's so huge! We love it! Indy does too! She just likes to smell it and get all covered in glitter from the ornaments. Luckily that is the extent of her exploring the tree! I also can't believe that I was able to use my remote and tripod and got Indy to look right at the camera! She's so cute!

I found some pet footies on sale at Amazon for 75 cents! So I bought all the animals a pair for Christmas! The kitties love theirs! And by "love" I mean they just plop over and not move - which is great for me! haha Indy's on the other hand were waaaaay to small! haha I could hardly get it over her head with her front paws through the holes! So, we'll have to get her a different one.

December 4th

December 4th, 2015
Maddy gets baptized tomorrow! I spent a couple of hours (a good half of that was seam ripping!) embroidering Maddy's baptism towel with her name and date of the baptism on it! It took forever, but it looks great!

December 3rd

December 3rd, 2015
Against Maddy's will I drug her outside to the park to take pictures for her baptism! I went over to the house to pick her up to go shoot, only to find her still in her school clothes with a bag a cheese puffs in one hand and the accompanying cheesey fingers and face! Ahh! haha so I hurried her off, cleaned off the cheese, did her hair and ushered her in the car with a half hour of light left to spare. Haha!

We got our tree today! I can't tell if Indy is traumatized from it or that I shove her into her Max antlers every chance I get.

I got to photograph one of my best friends and her whole extended family today! Those poor Californians were freezing in the snow and had to warm up between poses, but man, their pictures look great!

We sorta did the whole "black friday" thing, but we did it at about 9 am after getting a full night's worth of sleep. The only thing we went out wanting to get was this Max antler doorbuster from PetCo. Totally worth it for this face right here. She's so cute!

I finally got to meet baby Sadie! She had her newborn photoshoot today! What a trooper! She let me stuff her into so many props and outfits that I was out of ideas before she was even fussy!

So, Danny desperately needed a hair cut. Like bad. We had to resort to going to Dad. He made sure that we were aware the whole time that you, "get what you pay for."

Joel and Crys hired me for their yearly family photos again. I always love hanging out with the Weights, they are so fun and always rock the coolest clothes! I was especially glad that they all brought their own ugly Christmas sweaters to change into at the end of the shoot.

I love these two! Manny and Kimber came up for the day to play. We took Indy on a walk and then went to Ikea for curtains and lunch. Kimber took a little nap in my little man's crib and Manny and I got to catch up. Once Kimber woke up, she was all over Indy. She kept hugging her and climbing all over her and Indy would lick her and Kimber would burst into laughter. So cute!

Indy has been doing so good with her boot camp schedule! She even earned a little tethered time while I edited pictures. She snuggled up next to me on the bed and took a cute little nap.

The feat has been conquered. I bought some hangers and hung all my costumes up in the office closet. This hasn't happened since Oregon! It feels so good to have them out of boxes and more accessible for photoshoots!

November 13th, 2015
Indy came home from Boot Camp today! It was the longest 4 weeks ever! I missed my little pup! She learned so much! We were able to walk off leash with her around the neighborhood and she listened so well! To make sure she knows that the rules still apply at home, she is on boot camp schedule for two weeks. I'm so excited for my snuggle pup to be home!
