Beginnings end. (Finally.)

Well I made it to the end of my themed month and was almost successful. In fact I have decided to call it a success (all though not the best one). I had some rough spots along the way. There was a blog posted after midnight (but before morning). Some boring topics. Some topics left […]

A suggested beginning.

I sit here again tonight stuck for a topic and motivation to write and my blog-buddy has over the past month made one suggestion at least three times and I have pushed it off and left it. Why I am not not completely sure but at least in part because I didn’t have the energy […]

Babling beginnings.

I never thought much about communicating before I had kids. Even once Cameron was born I didn’t think to much about it. Rob and I spoke and decided we didn’t want to use baby talk and that we would speak to our children like little adults so that they would learn to speak clearly and […]

A timely beginning.

On June 16th my daughter was born. Alexandria Dorthea. You was born on her due date as it was predicted by my midwife. Which was 1 day after the day I had figured out and 4 days before the one that the obsetrician had figured out (3 different calculation systems were used). She was born […]

A full beginning.

Nathanial was born at 38 weeks just 2 weeks before he was suppose to. At first he seemed perfect. He was born 7 lB 7 oz. Most babies are born upset but Nate was right out pissed off. He looked like an angry old man. By about 24 hours old he was refusing to eat and […]

I was admitted to hospital for a night and given medication to stop the labor. Thankfully the medication worked. I went into labor again at about 26 […]

Not your “normal” kind of beginning.

As many know and I am sure through this blog some are learning Rob and I aren’t “normal” and as a part of us not being normal we decided not to get married on a “normal” day. So Rob and I chose to get married on February 29, 2000. A date that we had both […]

Beginning something new.

I have decided to make Sundays on my blog “Silent Sundays”. I will post a picture. I might be just something I like or one I have taken in the past week. I might post a description with it  and of course a title but nothing more. Just a nice break from blogging and a […]

It begins on a dark night….

Okay so beginnings. Lets start with easy. Those that know me won’t likely be surprised at all by this but… my favorite movie beginning is Disney’s Aladdin. This also happens to be one of my favorite movies. I have easily seen it 100 times. I actually watched it enough times to wear out the video […]

In the begining…..

Another year has ended. As we begin into 2012. I am looking ahead a day, a week, a month, a year. I don’t like resolutions. I feel they are setting yourself up for failure and if you manage to succeed (well good) but did it really need to be a resolution? Granted the beginning of […]
