Catching up...

Wow! I do have some catching up to do. I guess things happened so fast after my last post that I just never had time to come back. I always had intentions to...and heaven knows I could have used a place to put my thoughts...other than keeping them in my head. But time just goes by so fast. I decided it is very important to get my thoughts back down. Because before you know it they are just faded memories that you have to really concentrate to remember. I want to record my thoughts while they are fresh...so when I read them later the details are so vivid that I can actually remember the moments. And even more so because I want to be able to share Baby X's moments with him later in life. You know when you ask your Mom or Dad something about when you were little and sometimes they can very clearly tell you the moment you are asking about, but sometimes they can't. I really want to be able to tell him clearly about every moment he asks about. And if I can go back and read my thoughts I will be able to remember the moment like it was yesterday...no matter how small it may seem.

You might wonder why an online blog and not just write in a diary? Well for one typing is so much faster than handwriting a diary/journal. I know they say writing it makes it more personal, and that might be...but I am so wordy that it kills my hand to keep up with my brain! LOL. Plus I want to be able to really brag to the world about Baby X's accomplishments and special moments. I am still refering to him as Baby X for a reason I swear. It's all about catching up.

So over the next few days/weeks...whatever it takes I am going to post some current stuff and some past stuff. I want to get all caught up. I am going to make seperate posts though...so there maybe more than one post a day..one present one past. That being said...I am going to end this post and begin a new one....the birth of Baby X! So sit back and enjoy the story...
