200th

This is my 200th post! It really seems like a lot, but I've been blogging for a few years now and so it really should be my 400th post or more. I went through many dry spells not because of my lack of desire to blog, but mainly because of my lack of feeling creative. I have however done much better the last 6 months and I hope that I can continue to be better for many more.

I thought in honor of this 200th post, I would give a little background of why and when I started to write.

My first post was November 9, 2005 when I was 23 weeks pregnant with Ella. I honestly have no idea why I thought of blogging. I must have known somebody who had done it but I can't remember who that was now. So I just started experimenting.

Like most of y'all, I started a blog with the purpose of keeping far away family informed with my pregnancy, including pictures of my growing belly bump and stats on baby. And then to keep far away family informed on baby Ella. Since then, my blog has remained just that and then some. It's been a joy for me to be able to "meet" so many new blogging friends as well as a blessing to be able to share our sweet baby girl in all of her cuteness with y'all.

Thank you guys for your support through your commitment to keep up with us and for all of your sweet comments. They are blessing, every single one.
