Why I blog...why do you blog?

After reading this post from Blair this morning I've been inspired to write about why I blog.
When I started this blog last year it was strictly a baby blog...all about my pregnancy with Kyle. I wanted to have a record of it and instead of writing in a journal (I've got terrible handwriting), and because I'm on my computer alot, I decided a blog was for me. Plus, I like reading about other people's pregnancies so I thought other's might too. After Kyle was born I wanted to continue documenting his life and our family. But instead of weekly updates that you all got when I was pg, they become monthly updates with some added bonuses here and there.

An interesting side note is that alot of the pg blogs I read have now ceased to exist once the baby was born...there are very few that have continued blogging and it's kind of sad :(

There are always things I want to talk about on here but frankly I'm scared. I think because pretty much all of my 26 followers I know IRL (in real life) and/or are family. I'm not quite sure if I'm ready to take it to the next level and blog about more than just family and baby gear...I'm going to be thinking about it though.

So why do you blog? Why did you start and how has your blog changed or not changed?

9 month stats

Well we finally have some stats...

15lb 7oz (though he kept trying to crawl off the scale so it was hard to get an accurate weight)
28" long
44cm head circumference

Dr. said he's a strong healthy boy. I'd say...with a huge appetite. He ate like 2 cups of yogurt this afternoon...I'm trying to keep feeding him till he really won't eat anymore, but it takes forever! I had a feeling last week his crankiness might have been cause he was hungry and it seems a little better this week. I'm just amazed at how much food he puts away!

Do we have a walker soon?

Kyle has been pulling up on things non-stop the last few days. So I decided to get out the push/ride toy we got him for Christmas. I wasn't sure how he would do but he balanced so well!! I think we might have a walker soon! Ben walked at 9 months so I wouldn't be surprised!

Kyle and bubbles

He wasn't as interested in getting the bubbles as watching Sam get them.

9 Months

Doing your favorite thing...standing in your crib

Wow Kyle, 9 months...I swear you just turned 6 months. You love standing in your crib now and when I put you down for a nap, you like to stand up and throw out your binky then cry about it...Silly Boy.
We don't know how big you've gotten because you Dr. appt isn't until next week.
You had your first real cold last week, but you got over it quickly.
I thought your top tooth popped through but I don't think it quite did.
You are crawling all over the place and pulling up on everything.
You have now decided that you love to feed yourself. Which I don't mind at all so I let you. No more purees for you yay!!
You are such a good eater too! The only thing you haven't been too interested in is chicken.
You have started to take a shower every morning with daddy. It's your special time together. The only bad part is now you won't take a bath anymore...hopefully that won't last forever.

Here are some pictures from the past month!
