So I was looking for Smushy’s weight at 4 months to compare to Doodles since we just had his appointment. I’m sure I have it written in a book somewhere, but I was sitting here and figured it’d be easier to just look it up on my old blog. It’s set to private now and I had to figure out what my old log-in info was just to view it. I read a few from the beginning and it highlighted how completely different I am now. I used to be honest*. Or at least I was in one entry. And I actually blogged about the day to day with Smushy. I’m sure it was boring to 99% of those who happened upon it. But it was mine. And really enjoyed re-reading it. I liked being reminded of the new mother jitters and worries and joys that I probably overlook not being a first time mom these days. I wrote huge posts every month for Smushy. While Doodle gets nothing. Or at least very little.
*This is not to say I am now dishonest. I just mean I wasn’t afraid to voice my opinion while now I avoid conflict because I’m always too worried about offending someone. Pathetic.
So I decided to go back to the way it was. Turn this into a journal for my kids and for myself. Let’s be honest, it’s not like I’m doing anything else with it. I’m excited about this. And I know most people will think it’s stupid. But this is for me.
I remember that blog! The little one was only a few weeks old! Welcome back.
Good for you. This whole blogging thing is supposed to be fun, right? You might as well make it what you want it to be. And since I haven’t said it in a while, your kids are so stinkin adorable…
