So, here my foray into the world of blogging begins.
Until now I have read other peoples blogs but never felt the urge to take part...so what has changed? Everything.
Eight weeks ago I gave birth to our beautiful first baby. It has flipped my world upside down, and believe me I have never been a fan of roller coasters until now.
I don't wish to become a figure of hate for most new mums, but I have a seriously chilled, easy baby. Another post on this will follow...I was a 'ten month mama'...actually 43 weeks and 2 days...very unusual, and now I have a very unusual baby :-)
We took to breastfeeding easily and she sleeps really well - so in a funny kind of way I suddenly have a lot of time on my hands. I have 6 months maternity leave away from a very busy job so this excess spare time is alien ground for me...
Having my daughter has also led me to evaluate my life in general - the past (decade two was particularly eventful), the present and what I hope for the future - so maybe this blog will be an outlet for my musings on this.
Identity #1 is now most definitely 'mummy' (hence the blog name, inspired eh?!) but blog content will not be limited to mum-stuff. My other love - and this definitely never changes - is food. I love to eat it, cook it, read about it, think about it, dream about it etc etc...you get the idea, now I want to blog about it.
So, whether anyone actually read this stuff or not, I am looking forward to emptying my head while filling up this site...
Congratulations! and welcome to the world of blogging.
ReplyDeleteI didn't start blogging till my Daughter was almost 4 yrs old, so missed the boat on the baby thing. But still I like to do parent blogging and hopefully have some interesting tips. I also like to network and to 'blog up' all that I think is good for us parents - so if it is in HonieLikes they must have impressed me. I tweet as @honieBuk
Hey you. Well done on taking the plunge. Hope we see lots more of your posts.
ReplyDeleteI didn't have my children as little babies so that stage passes me by in a haze of misunderstanding.
You have lots to come yet mwahahah.
