I blog too but mainly for my way to journal and get my thoughts out since I am terrible at baby books, etc. It is nice to go back through the memories.
....and by blog I mean, every 3-6 months I think to myself "I've done like 7 house projects and have had 2 major life events.... maybe I should write some of this shit down"
Every blog post starts with " I know I haven't written for like 6 months BUT..."
So yeah, I guess you could say I'm one of those super hip Sanctimommy Bloggers
Ok, soooooo I know this thread became kind of a joke, but I was seriously thinking about starting a blog in order to keep our families up to date on Abby's situation and how everything is going. Do the actual bloggers out there have any recommendations on getting one started...it's not something I've ever even thought about doing before and thusly know nothing. Also, now I want a smoothie.
I would highly suggest it! I did for the same reason. When we were having our issues with Madison, it was so much easier to direct people to the blog. We got tons of positive feedback from it too. I used wordpress, and I love it.
Re: Week 23- any other bloggers out there?
