Feeling Inspired

Ever since the day Ben was born time seems to have taken on a whole new concept for me. How in the world has it been six months since he was born? It seems like yesterday. I used to think that was such a cliche thing to say...pre-Ben. The whole reason behind starting this blog is really just about me being able to keep track of my memories better. I think it will be great for other people to come here and see pictures of our family and keep track of what we are up to, but mostly I am just feeling inspired to not forget. I am already having trouble recalling Ben's first days. I can barely remember the night I met Ava and instantly decided to give my "no dating men with children" rule the boot. I really don't want to look back and regret not keeping better track of all the special moments of our little family. This sounds really cheesey to me even as I am writing it- but I really don't care. I am not very funny, or creative, or good at taking pictures- so there goes Matt's hope that I will become a multi-millionaire blogger that gets a guest spot on Oprah. I am just my husband's wife and kid's mom who wants to do everything I can document these days of ours- because- shockingly- they are more exciting to me than any job I have ever had, any trip I have ever been on, or frankly anything else I have ever done.
