confessions of a blog stalker....

ok, so first i have a confession to make. i am a full blown blog stalker these days. there are a few blogs by other moms (people i don't even know in real life mind you) that i have no clue how i came across their blogs that i just love to read every single day. it's like reading a good book you just can't put down. i guess i find it comforting to know that the challenges i face are certainly not unique and it's fun to find humor in them. these blogs have been a source of encoragement to me and i love reading about how other moms spend their days, save money, discipline their children, etc. SO now that i've come clean about this little "problem", i've been inspired to do a better job blogging about my own life. being the OCD, detail-oriented person that i am, i'm constantly journaling and taking pictures of life moments so i will never forget them. this blog is mainly to serve me as a journal of my life, and i certainly don't expect you to care as much about all of the details i put on here. in the past i've blogged a few times a month just to post some pics of big events or milestones, but now i'm giving you a heads up that my plan is to post almost daily and if you care to follow along with me and my journey, hop on!

and so it begins........
