JOHN MICHAEL VISITS!

Okay, I know I have been saying I would post pictures of John Michael's visit. So, here it is...with PLENTY of pictures...so get ready!!

John Michael came to visit while his younger brother, Heston, was having surgery. He spent the night at our house for the first time. Kaylin absolutely LOVED having him over. They played very well together. It was so much fun!!! I really enjoyed having 2 kids around and watching them interact. It makes me definitely want more kids! I took way too many pictures, so I'm just going to write a little bit before each one. Enjoy!

John Michael and Kaylin decided to pull out all the ziploc bags, but they put them back!

Here they are both "reading" books on the couch. I'm so glad they both enjoy books so much!

They were pointing things out to each other in their books. It was cute listening to them "talk".

John Michael absolutely LOVED playing with Dodge. Here he is giving him a hug!

John Michael and I had fun making these with his hands and feet! He is so cute!!

I let them watch a show together on their own cushion. Kaylin ended up on John Michael's cushion with one of his arms wrapped around her. It was soo cute....I didn't get my camera in time for that one though.....sorry!

John Michael and I doing our best "CHEESE" face for Jacob.

Eating dinner at the table with us. Isn't he just adorable????

They had so much fun filling up the bag with stuff and pouring it out!

AAAHHHHH!! GET THE LEGOS!!!! So much fun!!! They were cracking up!!!

Just hanging out in the floor playing with some legos!

They are very interested in Jacob reading a book to them about dogs!

ATTACK JACOB!!! Attack.....attack....attack!! I love this picture!

John Michael being an airplane. I love the expression on his face!!

John Michael giving Kaylin a hug while they were playing. Too sweet!

John Michael showed Kaylin how to put her magnetic letters on the fridge.

They were both talking on a phone. They might be asking for cell phones soon!!

Jacob and John Michael on the couch ready to watch The Polar Express!!

It was a fun filled day! Sorry there were soo many pictures, I just thought they were all cute! Hopefully, I will get Christmas pictures up soon!

THANKSGIVING!

So, I noticed everyone putting up Thanksgiving pictures and realized I had not! I only have a few from Thanksgiving on Jacob's side of the family and there are not many of family. My battery died in my camera while we were there and I didn't have an extra one with me. These pictures are at Jacob's Aunt Tiffany's husband Scott's mother's house. Did you get that??Anyway, here are the pictures I do have!

Kaylin's uncle David (Jacob's younger brother), Jacob, and Kaylin.

I thought this was a good picture of Jacob and Kaylin! (not sure what face that is Kaylin is making???)

Kaylin playing with her Great Uncle Scott!!!

Kaylin playing on the stairs! No, she didn't get her head stuck.

Kaylin climbed up the stairs with Jacob and decided that she would hang out in the balcony!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I know I posted a blog that said I would put up pictures of our day with John Micheal......and it will be the next thing I do. There are too many fun pictures to choose from. That is the only thing keeping me from posting a blog! Hopefully, I can make up my mind and get them on here soon! Thanks for checking in!

CHRISTMAS AGAIN??

WOW! It is so hard to believe that it will be Kaylin's 2nd Christmas this year. I was looking through some pictures and came across some from last Christmas. As I was looking at them, I couldn't stop thinking about how much she has grown since then!!! She's a little girl now! Here are some pictures to take a look back and remember how little and cute she was:

Here she is in her reindeer outfit. Wasn't she adorable??
Picking out the tree with Daddy!

First Christmas tree! Picture with Mommy.

Kaylin is going to LOVE that train this year. Thanks Gran and Poppy!!

Family

Today, I have John Michael (my nephew) staying with me. He spent the night and has had fun with Kaylin all day! They are both taking a nap....so....my time to blog! I will post pictures of their day together soon. For now, I just have pictures of Jacob and Kaylin. These pictures are from a day that Jacob came home for lunch.

Here is a picture of Jacob and Kaylin that I absolutely LOVE!!! They were both saying "cheese!" This picture is priceless to me! They are both so cute.

I am so blessed to have a husband that is such a great Daddy!!

He tries to read her a book anytime he comes home for lunch. She loves it!

A FUN-FILLED DAY!

I'm going to attempt to load some photos on here. These photos are from a very fun day Kaylin and I had a couple of weeks ago. She is so much fun to play with!

Here she is reading her bible to me. In this picture she was pointing and telling me about baby Moses. If you ask her to find baby Moses, she will flip through the whole book until she finds it and then say "BABY!! BABY!!".

After she was finished with her bible, she found a book with cats and dogs. These are some of her favorite words to say. In the picture below, Kaylin is pointing to the cat and yelling "C-AT!".

Kaylin decided she wanted to bring things to play with to her blanket. Her blanket was made by her Nana (Jacob's mother). Kaylin loves to sit on it and play with things. The next few pictures are of Kaylin playing with blocks. The first one is one of my favorites!

Ok....last picture! Kaylin found the picture of a cat on one of her blocks. She is ...AGAIN...pointing out the cat and telling me what it is.

There are a ton more pictures I could put up,but I realize I need to limit myself or there will be an overflow of pictures. FUN DAY!

HERE WE GO!

Ok.....here we go! The first blog for the Thome family. I'm Robin and my husband's name is Jacob. We have a little girl named Kaylin who is 17 months old. She's a handful, but a complete joy! Jacob and I definitely want to add to the family! We also have a dog named Dodge. He's a miniature schnauzer that is completely white. Kaylin loves him and they play together very well.

You will probably see many pictures on here (soon). I love photography and I am a stay-at-home mom. I taught 3rd and 1st grade before staying home. Now, I teach my daughter!! I LOVE being at home with her everyday. She is always doing something new. I'm very thankful that my husband wants me to be home with her and works so hard for it to happen. I love him!

My husband is a branch manager for Suntrust. We have been together since high school. He is the most amazing person in my life, other than God. Jacob is the leader of our house and God is the leader of our lives! We love our God and are thankful for Him giving His only son to die for our sins. We are committed to raising Kaylin in a Christian home where she will be loved, cared for and most of all surrounded by God's teachings and LOVE!

We hope that this new website will help keep you updated. Enjoy!
