New Blogger

I'm ecstatic about my new blogging journey! A couple of my friends (Shelli and Cristal) have introduced me to the blogging world and so far, I'm very interested with what they include. I think this is a wonderful way for people to stay in touch with how your family is and things that you are doing in life. You can for sure learn many things from one another, as everyone has a different lifestyle you can learn from and be open-minded about. I also think that blogging is a wonderful way to kind of create your own little timeline of LIFE--and with a little one, this is a great tool to track those great moments of growing up! Earlier I sat at the computer desk contemplating all kinds of things I could write about and share with everyone. Well, those of you with kids, know how difficult this can be because of the constant interruptions! My little Ethan is not on a very stable sleep schedule yet so I put him in his crib and thought I could just let him 'cry it out', so he would eventually fall asleep. Well, needless to say, this method didn't work so well with mommy because I went into the bedroom and picked him up; he automatically was silent! I then put him in his swing (it is very soothing for him), facing the direction of our fan, which he LOVES! He decided he didn't like that idea so much because he couldn't see mommy (I was on the computer 'blogging'). Then I had to turn his swing to face me, which solved the problem for a little while until he noticed I wasn't paying 100% attention to him (because I was looking at the computer screen)! Ethan would cry every time I took my attention from him to the computer, but when I was looking at him and smiling and talking, he was SO happy! Point of the story: I think he knows who is mommy is and loves to be in my company....so, he may become jealous of my future blogging sessions with google!
