Why blog?

Rather than over-burdening my Facebook page with the constant Leo updates, I've decided to start writing a blog about our adventures together. I'm also hoping to include a 365 project along the way although I don't know yet if I'll be able to keep it up!

The reason for wanting to take this off of Facebook and to make it a choice for people to read and look at is because I know it can be difficult having someone else's baby happiness shoved in your face constantly. After we lost our first baby and with our subsequent infertility struggles, I slowly distanced myself from most of my friends and family on Facebook who were posting about their pregnancies and babies.

So rather than shoving it down everyone's throat, it's now a choice! If you want to see what we're up to and how the little cub is growing, look here. I'll probably still post the occasional update about Leo on Facebook, but aim to keep the majority of it here.

So here's the first post, with our first picture. A random day and date to start a 365 project, but today's as good as any, right?!
