OPINION

BAKER, Judge., Appellant-defendant Joe Robbins appeals from the sentence imposed by the trial court after Robbins pleaded guilty to two counts of Child Molesting, 1 a class B felony. In particular, Robbins argues that his sentence violated the rule announced in Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296, 124 S.Ct. 2531, 159 L.Ed.2d 403 (2004), and that his sentence is inappropriate in light of the nature of the offense and his character. Finding that Robbins is not entitled to raise a Blakely challenge and finding that his sentence is appropriate, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
