We'll See How Long This Lasts...


Hello and Welcome to my new blog! I used to think these things were stupid - I mean, who would be conceited enough to think people would want to read daily accounts of some normal person's life? Well, apparantly I am that conceited person.


Why am I doing this? Well, I am a stay at home mom with a four year old daughter, 10 week old twin girls, and a husband that works a busy (but great) job. Sometimes life in this townhouse can get downright monotonous, so I figured, "Why not subject my friends and family to the monotony?". At least I'm sure my mom will read it.


I also just long for a connection with the outside world - a world where people drink lattes and have lunch meetings and go to Target. A world where yoga pants and tank tops with spit up stains are not an option. Don't get me wrong - the grass is very green in my little life. I really do spend some time every day in awe of the life I lead - thankful I don't have to work a 9-5 job, that I have three precious girls, that my husband loves me and that it's virtually always 70 degrees or warmer outside. But having a newborn (much less TWO newborns) can be a little isolating...hence the need for the blog.


I must admit my inspiration is my sweet sister-in-law, Leslie Sloan. Her blog is a total trip and is my lifeline some days. You should check it out - it's ashevillesloan.blogspot.com (I think). So if my blog gets boring, then check hers out for a little laugh. I'll try to keep this interesting and hopefully I'll be able to keep up the posts. I'm never sure what my days will look like, but I'll give it a whirl! (What I mean to say is that hopefully this is not my first and last post!). Enjoy!
