Not yet... he is still in Arizona and we are in Indiana now, but there will be when he gets home on the 13th! Yes folks, I am married to a doctor! HOORAY!!! Can you believe it?! I thought the day would never come! Robby finished his course work yesterday, and according to his transcript he is FINISHED!!! (How many exclamation points can I use to express my excitement??!!!!!!!!!!!)
Let's see, how long have I been waiting for this? We have been married for ten years and he has been in school the whole time! This completes 13 years of college for him (7 years for his bachelor and master degrees and 6 years for his doctorate). It was so weird for us to think that he is now a doctor. I am married to a doctor! (It's about time!)
I realize our blog has been neglected as of recent, but it has taken a bit longer to get settled as I am unpacking the house all by myself. We arrived in IN on July 31st and Robby flew back to AZ to defend his dissertation on Aug 1st. Setting up house with three little ones is a bit more challenging than I had anticipated, but little by little we are getting there. I will be so glad when Dr. Robby gets back on the 13th. Hopefully after he gets back next week I will be able to update you with pics and stories from the last several weeks of our life. For now, I go to find what's contained in the pile of boxes behind me.

I am SOOOO excited for you!! I could just feel your ecstasy when reading this entry. A thousdand congratulations!! Don't worry about the house, it will come and by Christmas it will all be organized, ha! Please post pictures of your new life as you go along. Again, couldn't have made me happier to read this. I hope you will love Indiana and make lots of dear friends since this will likely be your home for some time. Hope the kiddos are well. One question, is this where your Doctor of a husband will start going by Robert and when you'll drop the Li'l for your son, as he is not so little anymore??
Yes, things have gotten confusing for my Robbys, but neither one of them seems inclined to change. I think that if one of them were to change, Li'l Robby would be the one that would decide to change. He has told me before that he has thought about going by Rob. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
What a summer you've had - what a ten years you've had! We are extremely happy, grateful & relieved and love you all very much.
Congratulations to all of you! Now on to "real life," right? Keep up all the good work, and I'm looking forward to your next posts (whenever you manage to squeeze them in). Hugs to all, Tracy & the crew
Glad you made it there! It was great to see you. Congrats to Robby and to you, too, Sharon!!! I bet you'll be happy when he's back. Can't wait for more updates.
Since Dad doesn't leave blog comments, I'll do one for him - Congratulations to the entire family! Higher education is definitely a group project!
Congratulations! We are so proud of both of you. Robby, for doing it. Sharon, for supporting him (which is awesome). It was so much fun seeing you on your trek.
