Our first post!!

Well, we've made it into the cyber world. It's very exciting.

My thoughts on creating this blog are to have a way to share with family and friends all the goings ons in our lives. Everyone has been so very supportive as our little family gets it's start and through these postings I hope that each and every one of you can see what a difference you've made for us. And what new mom doesn't like to brag?? huh?? Come on . . . admit it. You've all done it too.

As November begins, it's hard to believe that Marley is almost 4 months old. That's 16 weeks! When you're pregnant, everyone tells you how fast they grow up. I'll admit that I couldn't appreciate how it does actually feel like it FLIES. The big milestone with turning 4 months has to be the beginning of spoon-feeding. And i very distinctly remember the day she turned 2 months and thinking to myself "she's halfway to being able to eat cereal, and we're barely getting 3 oz in her for each bottle!!" As a speech pathologist who works with little kiddos, I've really been looking forward to trying spoon-feeding and eventually a sippy cup.

We've just had our first big holiday . . . . Halloween. As usual I bought way way way too much candy and am now hunting down receipts to return some of it. Not all of it because i'm sure i can put the peanut butter cups to good use somehow. maybe by placing them in my mouth and bringing my teeth together in an up and down fashion?? just a thought. marley was a hit in the neighborhood. her little cow bunting costume was adorable and her eyes looked so blue. and her talking and laughing to anyone and everyone how payed her a lick of attention didn't do much harm either :)

i'm going to try to figure out how to add pictures and all the fancy extra's to thos blog soon. maybe this weekend?? yeah -single working mom's have all the time in the world to sit and do this kind of stuff.

i'm getting ready to click "publish post" and i'll admit i'm nervous. wish me luck :)
