So my aspirations of becoming a consistent blogger haven't panned out so far. It's only been in the past few weeks that trying to take this up again has even entered my mind. The boys are now 9 months old and are finally great nappers most of the time. Whenever I feel sentimental and look back at old pictures and videos of them as babies I always wish I had some type of journal to go along with them. I've never really enjoyed the act of journaling, but love having it to look back on. I'm not sure if I'll ever make this a public blog or just keep it as private memories for our family. But either way, I'm trying this again! I'm amazed at how quickly I've already forgotten the little details about life months ago. So I figure it's never too late or no time like the present or something like that.
So where do I begin? These past 9 months have been the biggest roller coaster of my life. It blows my mind that we are quickly approaching the boys' first birthday. Spring is here and with each new season I feel a new landmark of life. With each month that passes I feel like we've reached a new easiness to life and think how I had thought the same thing each month before. So far we've made it through sleepless nights, lack of schedules, breastfeeding around the clock, first grins and giggles, rolling over, more spit up than I knew was possible, blowout diapers, twice a week MBA classes, 4 colds, crying it out for nights and naps, learning to eat solids, watching them smile and giggle at each other, snuggly bedtime routines of songs and prayers, baths where everyone is wet, and learning to love in ways we've never known. And I wouldn't trade a minute.
