crazy little ladies

So life in the Crown household is crazy as can be, Robyn I'd have to say is a full blown pre-schooler, and I must add that it's so much fun, she loves to help and is now capable of actually being of some use while she is doing it, she picks up her toys and puts away her dirty laundry, she loves to get me diapers for Grace and feed her baby sister(not that Grace is such a baby anymore). We have a new kitten and she is constantly trying to carry the poor thing with her everywhere, She puts her own straps on in the car (and takes them off again when we're not looking) and buckles herself, she's learned to peddle the tricycle and when the weather is nice goes for rides with daddy (yes we have out grown doo-dah ) she is finally able to put on her own shoes, she has mastered staying dry during the day and is waking to use the potty about 50 % of the time at night, we are working on sleeping in her own bed and rediscovering how much fun a living room can be with out the kids. We are going to speech and OT (occupational therapy) every other week and it's helping her over come some of the developmental delays we've had concerns about. Robyn is as always a little chatterbox and has started telling some fantastic stories. The other day she was in trouble and when told that if she ever committed that crime again I'd have to spank her bum, she pointed at me with that tiny little finger and very seriously said "you leave my bum out of this" She is on her best days a ray of sunshine and on her worse only partly cloudy she's full of sugar and spice and an occasional bit of vinegar the apple of her daddy's eye and a favorite at play group. She is having her teeth worked on on the 15 of April and her eyes checked on the 23,

Grace is getting to be a little vixen she is a full-blown babbler and constantly into mischief she has become attached to her balloon blanket and is inconsolable without it she love books and playing in the little kitchen with her big sister, She has wrapped everyone she meets around her pudgy little finger. She still honks like a goose when she laughs and can ask for food when she's hungry. Grace is a beautiful sleeper and has never given us any trouble sleeping through the night, she loves to spin around in circles till she is so dizzy she can't stand up and racing her sister across the living room and back, she loves to take a bath right up till it's time to wash her hair, and then trying to dump the whole tub out on the bathroom floor. She's super cuddly and the sweetest little helper, she eats well and is spot on in her development she is mommy's little sweetheart and has the sweetest kisses, She's got her daddy's temper and a soft spot for mommies uncle rob, She's the light of our life's and her sweet little smile is enough to warm the coldest heart. Grace is also having her eye's checked on the 23 we had a scary day last week when her left eye started to wonder and the doctor thought she might have had something else going on but it turned out to only be a sinus infection.

Joe is loving his job but a little put out because they are taking their sweet time with hiring him full time, it come's with benefits and a pay increase (something we need desperately) I'm on the waiting list for a job at ON semiconductors witch will let me work hours opposite Joe's and will pay over 10 dollars an hour and has benefits after 90 days. We've figured out away to help my mom pay for surgery and have been busy working on that and have been busy busy busy. We're happy and healthy for the most part and wishing that spring would hurry up and warm up.
