Devin and I have been married for almost 3 years; Baby Beau is 18 months old, and Baby #2 is due in January--and I have this guilt on my shoulders that I haven't anywhere/anyway to organize my thoughts, our family events, pictures, etc.  I have a journal that has been written in once every year or so, and some pictures printed and bound in albums; but that just feels so...old fashioned.  I feel like it is TOO easy to get behind, overwhelmed, etc. with this method, and I find that so much has slipped through my memories as a result.  My hope is simply, that this family blog will revolutionize my poor record keeping--and create a more dynamic approach to our lives together.

The best way to start?  Family pictures:)  We ran across a gentleman who was seeking clients to do some "free" photo shoots (so he could update his portfolio)...and thought, "Why not?"  I intended the shoot to be simply for Baby Beau; but he threw us in too:)  I am not a huge fan of having a pregnant belly in these pictures; but free was worth it!  Baby Beau was a lot of fun (as always) and thankfully, let me curl her hair.  It will be nice to have a complete family picture when Baby #2 arrives!
