Why do I Blog?

Life is so fast & furious with 3 young children, working from home, ect that I fear I will forget the lovely details of my girls' precious childhood.

My main motivation for blogging is to capture the every day moments...so I don't forget them before I have a chance to scrapbook. Sharing with you is just an added bonus. Keeping this blog has helped me get the photos off my camera's memory card and label/organize them on my laptop. It is the BEST tool I have for scrapbooking. I haven't ever been able to keep a journal, but this I can do. I don't pretend to have anything interesting to say. In fact I'm sure this little blog is boring to you, but to me it is priceless!

0 Baby update

I had a standard appointment this morning.  Doctor was worried about baby's growth (I haven't been gaining weight or tummy size) so he did a quick ultrasound. Turns out baby is VERY LOW (-1 station) but growing right on target. I could have told you baby was that low...it HURTS! 
 
Also, since I'm only dialated 1 cm he okay-ed me to go to my family reunion next week.
