I'm starting my NY Resolution early (perhaps this will make up for the lapses in blogging we both know I'll inevitably have) by attempting to keep a better record of life as it flies by. I've never been an avid journaler, although I long to write eloquent thoughts about life in a locked diary for my progeny to one day discover and snicker through, but maybe with enough readership and encouraging comments I'll keep it up.
Reasons I'm not writing this blog:
I live a fascinating life.
I'm a great writer.
I have deep thoughts that the world should have regular access to. (Duh. I tweet for that kind of stuff.)
Here's the real reason I'm writing:
I'm having a baby. And the world ought to have the opportunity to hear about my little Peanut, whom I already adore despite the fact that s/he is in utero and gender neutral. Don't think I'm biased. My mom thinks Peanut (who she prefers to call Butterbean) is incredible too. I know because she told everysinglenurse/orderly/doctor that she is going to be a grandma when she had surgery on Thursday.
Basic Cast List:
Jason (husband for 2+ years and daddy-to-be)
Peanut (gender undetermined, wiggly, 26 week-old fetus)
Wolfgang ColtMcCoy Stanford (fuzzy, wild, rescue dog and my SoulPuppy)
Liesl (stealth cat extraodinaire and Jason's SoulKitty)
Me (neurotic worrywart with the best intentions for wifedom and mommyhood)
Gratitude list (Another NY Resolution I've broken year after year)
Healthy family complete with kicking Peanut
Quality time with mom while she recovered from her surgery on Thursday
