Wasn't it just February?
For what it's worth, I've written many blog posts in my head since February. I've blogged about Carly's dance recital from May, our trips to Florida and Omaha this summer, swim lessons, the first day of preschool for Carly and Hannah, and multiple in-between moments that represent this stage of life for our family. But, I just haven't gotten them typed from my head to the computer.
Two years ago in December, I blogged once a day for 25 days about Things that Bring Joy. It was a fun thing to do but was definitely difficult, at times. So, I'm starting with baby steps. I'm hoping to blog once a week (yikes! I'm going from once every 9 months to once every week. Ha! Ha!) But, I very much want to capture my family's memories in these posts. Last year, I printed a book of my blog for my mom. I used http://www.blurb.com/ for the software, and let me tell you, it was awesome! (fyi, I'm not getting paid by them to wax eloquently about this) Sure, there were times I felt like I was back in high school newspaper class, with all the editing and layout work that had to be done. But, it was certainly worth it in the end. I was able to print all the blog posts and pictures and have it in a hardcover book. Looks like with my two posts this year, I won't be printing one any time soon, but I have high hopes of getting up to date and posting some memories from the past months.
Many people I know blog frequently and they are just as busy as the rest of us. I know it can be done! I am over-the-top impressed with my sister-in-law. She blogs about their family diligently. Go check out her blog at fletcherbabymakesthree.blogspot.com. She just had baby #2 only 11 days ago, and she's already blogged multiple times about sweet Harper Joy!
Ok, so I'll be back in a few short days! Until then, here's a picture from the past month. Can you tell from Carly's face that she was tired of taking pictures? And, Hannah looks like she's just getting started!
