New Mama, New Blogger!
It's so cliche right? "I had a baby so I am going to start a blog!" Well read number 6 of my goals below and then please continue reading :)
On December 10, 2012 my husband and I found out we were pregnant with our first child! It was a crazy whirlwind and we were so excited! On February 27, 2013 we were told we were having a GIRL and in the same breath were also told she would be born with Spina Bifida. Since that time I have been thinking about starting a blog but really could not figure out exactly what I wanted to accomplish in doing so. After our new baby Olivia was born on July 29 I have had a bit more time to think and here are my goals for my blog:
1. Provide my own personal insight into parenting: the good, bad, awesome and ugly.
2. Share advice or tips on things my husband and I have learned while parenting.
3. Increase Spina Bifida awareness as well as provide a safe place for friends, family and others in our lives to read, comment and relate.
4. Allow myself a place to share about all the successes and hurtles of raising a child.
5. Review baby/ kid products and share my opinions. (I am not paid by any company so these are honest to goodness reviews.)
6. AVOID JUDGEMENT! No judging each other or ourselves when it comes to parenting! The only "right way" to parent is to love your child unconditionally and provide them everything you possibly can to support them and help the succeed. Whatever way you get there is up to you. **I will try my best to refrain from judging other parents and I would ask you do the same.**
Well there you have it! GOALS! Woo hoo - now what????
Now, we write! I look forward to sharing our stories with you!
BE HAPPY. LAUGH. ENJOY CHAOS.
