Juliet is one week already today. Wow. What did I even do last week? It's been a blur. A sleepless, snuggly, beautiful blur. And Erik went back to work today (boo) so it's just me and the little sweetie. We have a busy day planned of napping, eating, cuddling and a visit to the dr. Please wish me luck on my first venture outside of house alone with the baby.I've been toying with the idea of starting a separate blog to talk about all things baby (specifically my baby), mom stuff, etc. It would be more of a personal blog, meant mostly for myself, to document baby Juliet's milestones and everyday in between and also to share things like the birth story, which I know a lot of you are interested in hearing. Also, it would be a great opportunity to get advice from all the amazing moms that already read Eat Drink Pretty. Mostly though, I think/act like a blogger...taking photos constantly and wanting to share my exeriences, so a mom/baby/personal blog would be the place to do that (and not Facebook!). This would not be a blog where traffic-building is a goal.
So that's where I'm at. We'll see if another blog unfolds (first, it would need a name!). After some thinking I decided that Eat Drink Pretty isn't really the place to share things like a birth story, the same venue where someone might be coming to get a quiche recipe...you know what I mean???
In meantime, I will provide snippets of Juliet and what I'm up and I still have a few posts coming up including my maternity photos and Juliet's nursery.
Thank you for all your continued kind words for me and baby girl!
Yes - PLEASE start a baby/mama blog! Juliet is a beauty. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your little girl! As a future momma (mid July!) in the twin cities and daily reader of Eat Drink Pretty, I would fully support a baby/mama blog!
ReplyDeleteThat would be so great for her to look at when she's older! I definitely think you should. Eat Drink Baby! Okay, maybe not that. But you know what I mean :)
ReplyDeleteDo it! My "mom blog" has been an incredible experience for me. I have a place where I can document their lives whenever I have a minute! I like "waiting for Juliet" for a blog name ;-) Although if you have other little ones you might want something that could encompass your entire family! Plus you can make a book out of your "mom blog" at blog2print.com so you and her an sit down and look at it together some day ;-)
ReplyDeleteI can't get enough of Juliet so if you started a blog I know I would read that one too. I can't wait till I get to hold her again tomorrow!!!

Precious........I love sleeping baby pictures......Juliet is beautiful and you will enjoy the ride!!
ReplyDeleteShe is a beauty! When you're up to it, could you do a post about good freezable recipes to bring to new moms or sick people? I'm sure you have some expertise on that now! :)
ReplyDeleteShe's so adorable!
ReplyDeletecongrats on the beautiful girl. And I think a mommy/baby blog is a great idea. Maybe Feed Nap Pretty?
ReplyDeleteshe is so pretty.. i would just do one blog.. much easier to maintain when you are sleep deprived.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the beautiful baby girl. Oh she is so precious. Another bloggy friend also had her baby a week ago! So many babies being born!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy this amazing journey as it goes by so fast.
Hugs,
heidi

ReplyDeleteSo cute! I like "pretty baby" but I think we looked it up and it's a porn site already or something? Haha

YES, Jenna! Start a baby blog!! I love all of your ideas here. This is such a precious picture of Juliet, too. :)
ReplyDeleteDitto!! Please start a baby/mom/life blog :) Juliet is a doll and you already survived the first week! Great job Mama. I can't believe my baby girl just turned 5 months. Good luck at your appointment
