After many months of umming and ahhing, coming up with hypothetical blog posts while stuck in traffic, wondering if I would even get a single reader, and becoming inspired by some pretty amazing (and comical) "mom-bloggers" out there, I've decided to start my own. I'll start with a few disclaimers.
I'm writing for myself and my family. I want to record our family life so later on we can look back at all of our adventures. It took me a while to get over the fact that I may never have any followers other than maybe my mom (gotta get your support somewhere!) but that's ok! If I happen to catch someone's eye with a post then yay me!
I am not a fashion blog. You won't find any "outfits of the day" here. I'm lucky if I can put on two matching socks some mornings. I envy admire all those out there who look absolutely adorable every day, but I think I put more effort into dressing my daughter than myself.
I don't have any specific talents. Sure, I'm good at a handful of things (especially loving my family), but I was not born with any insane athletic ability or artistic skills. I won't be able to produce some Martha Stewart worthy tutorial but I do enjoy the occasional (aka daily) browse on pinterest and trip to the craft store.
It's pronounced "Mid(d)les". As in "middle of the road" or "stuck in the middle with you." In just our first year of marriage, I've heard so many different pronunciations for our last name it's ridiculous.
So there you have it. This is basically a place where I can document all the daily details that can be so easily forgotten and share pictures of my beautiful daughter and handsome husband.
(and with sheer terror, I click the 'publish' button...)
