new beginnings



Today ended with a really wonderful experience - getting to see and hold brand new Riley Blaine Honan before he was even 24 hours old! I've never held a baby that new before, and it is really amazing to see all of their tiny features perfectly formed and working. I held him for a couple of hours, and he was so squirmy and cute and made me start to want one... but then I came back to reality and remembered that the time just isn't right for us. Until then I'll just have to watch my friends' babies grow up :) I think when we finally do get pregnant, our baby is going to be the most spoiled baby on Earth, and I can't wait for that time to come! Watching Erin and Jon, and seeing Erin's mom cuddle little Riley makes me so excited for Chris and I to have that experience, and to have our families be a part of the joy of bringing a new life into the world. Congratulations, Erin and Jon!

hello!

Welcome to my blog! I've never done a blog for fun before, but I thought this would be a more interesting way to update people about my life and thoughts than on a social networking site that not everyone has access to. I'm in the process of making my blog a little more visually appealing, so I'll leave this first post with a welcome, and a thank you, for being interested in my little slice of the world :)
