Inaugural post

Ok.

Here it is.

My blog.

Yup.

I'm blogging.

I have been pissing around with this thing most of the evening, I even had a first post up and deleted the whole thing, pictures included, because I panicked a little about everything being out there, y'know, on the interwebs.

I am cautious by nature and suspicious by choice. I'm not going to put our full names on here, especially the kids', or our address, etc. If you know us, you know our names and where we are. You know me. I'm a little "bushed".

A bush baby.

A chick from the sticks.

That's me.

Seriously though, I started this blog so that I could more easily share things, especially photos, with friends and family. The kids are growing and changing so fast that I can hardly keep up, let alone keep everyone updated.

I'll put a few recent pics in this post so you can see how the chil'rens is. No opportunity to brag on them will be missed.

Here's the girl . . .

2 going on 13.

She's only gotten to wear this cute outfit once, not because it makes her look too old but because the collar and the cuffs require ironing and there's no one around here who's gonna do it. ;) Good thing I bought it on sale! (naturally)


And now the boy . . .

Ever hear the saying, "A boy is a noise with dirt on it."? I offer you exhibit A.

This was late in the summer. Our driveway is not completely finished and there's this one low spot that accumulates any moisture at all and makes a great muddy puddle. It's a little boy magnet. Thank God they're washable.

So. That concludes my first blog post. My brain is tired and it's time for me to retire. I only have a few hours until the kids climb in to our bed and I have to move to the couch!

There will be more bloggy-goodness, so if you're interested, keep checking back.
