Let's see how well I keep this up

For years now my older sister has been trying to convince me to blog about football.  I am completely obsessed with the Giants, and she thought it would be interesting to read my thoughts every week.  I never did however, as I get way too emotionally involved in the games and knew it would be too difficult to translate those feelings into words.  However, I recently had my first child (my beautiful baby girl....more on her later!), and I was the first of my friends and family to have a baby.  This meant that I was blindly paving the way for everyone else; trying to figure out this whole pregnancy/mommy thing on my own.  My mom is a huge help, but she last gave birth 23 years ago, and things have changed just a little.  And there are just some things you don't want to talk to your mom about!  It got me to thinking though and I have now decided to give one of these blogs a go, in the hopes of maybe giving some guidance to someone who is in the same lost boat I am.  At the very least I know my sisters will save it for their future pregnancies!  I make no guarantees in the frequency of my blogs though, as the major thing I have already learned about parenting is you never quite know when you will have a free moment to yourself!  But I hope I can pass along some good "Mommy" information or at least be somewhat entertaining.....Enjoy!
